Great monitor at a great price

Pros: Great display, clear as can be, no pixel issues at all, blacks are as black as I personally have seen on an LCD, and the 1920 x 1080 display rocks on a 21.5 inch display area. Clear type, videos, etc, are all great @ this resolution. Wanted a very clear display for general computing, and this fits the bill.
Cons: Were not on a 2 for 1 sale, so I had to pay double.
Overall Review: $30 each rebate made this a $400 purchase, mounted them side by side on a ergotron dual monitor desktop display stand - great combination.
Don't bother with rebates

Pros: Great drives - I own 4.
Cons: Had to fire off multipule emails over and over to get rebates - did all paperwork correctly, they just don't want to pay. Last straw was one from Oct 2010 - they declined it on 1-26-2011 for "Signed Rebate Form is missing- Original UPC Barcode Label (#842024018124) (Not the shipping label barcode) is missing- Copy of Receipt/Invoice or Packing List is missing- No proof of purchase- Barcode label is missing- Reseller is not eligible for this offer- No proof of purchase date in documentation" However, no contact at all from company - I discovered by searching their database. I am staring at the copies of the documents, including a copy of the stamped envelope.
Overall Review: They are crooks with the rebates. I will never purchase another OCZ product again, rebate or not. I refuse to do business with thieves and conmen.
Works great on HP Z1 (Gen1)

Pros: Fit perfectly, no problem installing. Used Intel Proset Drivers for Win7 64, wireless and Bluetooth. Zero issues after software install supported both 2.4 GHz / 5 GHz Download speeds went from 19.31-28.81 Mbps to 109.23-118.38 Mbps. Upload speed did not really change, was already maxed out. This replaced the OEM installed Intel Centrino 6xxx card. Using with Netgear Nighthawk X4S R7800. Could not be happier, great upgrade for an older model [very expensive when new] AIO workstation.
Cons: Does not come in black.
Overall Review: I would recommend to those who need to upgrade an older laptop or AIO to modern performance. This card was obviously not blocked in the BIOS on my HP Z1 workstation, running latest HP BIOS.
Great update to a classic

Pros: They got rid of the large white brand logo and model number on the previous USB 2 version, it "blends in" better and looks more professional. It now has 4 USB ports, vs. 1 on the previous model. Rock solid. Takes microSD cards without adapter. Reads & writes to just about anything out there.
Cons: Price, price, price. Note: I had to search their site and download a driver package to get it to work correctly on W10. The drivers did not come with the item and were not mentioned. Perhaps this is why some negative reviews?
Overall Review: I have tossed quite a few of the cheap card reader bay devices in the past years, everything from shorting out to damaging cards. This is the one brand/model I trust. I'm moving my old trusty USB 2 version to another workstation that doesn't have USB 3, and speed is not critical.
Intel Card - HP box.

Pros: Rock solid. Uses Intel PROset software. Made by Intel. Has a little Intel label on it. The only thing HP is the brown box it comes in, the driver CD and the warranty card.
Cons: Box says HP. HP doesn't even have the drivers, you have to go to Intel. HP does list the product, they have a picture of it, but that's it. Another outdated driver CD hits the landfill.
Overall Review: Couldn't find it at the egg when it was time to buy, could only find the exact same one but without the HP in front. This one is a little more than half the price here as the one without HP in front. Bought it elsewhere and got two for less than the price of one Intel boxed one. I'm thinking I may pick up two more, from the egg, if they drop the price a bit to match the "other guy".
Rock solid.

Pros: Price. Flashed to wrt-dd and didn't look back, stable, good throughput, keeps connections, takes a load and keeps on pumping.
Cons: Had to flash wrt-dd to achieve maximum performance and features.
Overall Review: Works great with my mixed bag of different client wireless standards.
Was wondering when it would be cheep.
Old Netbook remember those, waiting for the battery to be cheep enough to buy, here it is, worked great I am happy. Thanks senor. Long, thick and black. What is not to like?
