Excellent product

Netgear ProSafe GS105 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Unmanaged Switch, GS105NA
Netgear ProSafe GS105 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Unmanaged Switch, GS105NA

Pros: EASY to set up, ZERO adjustments. Just plug in and leave it alone.

Cons: Doesn't have racing stripes and won't solve world hunger.

Tons of fun for 25 bucks!

Syma S107 Mini RC Helicopter Metal Series with Gyro (Blue)
Syma S107 Mini RC Helicopter Metal Series with Gyro (Blue)

Pros: Easy a pie to fly. Durable based on my wipeouts. Quick charge with about 12 to 14 minute flights. If you want longer flights, spend way more money and they won't fly indoors without ripping art off the wall!

Cons: None. Fun for cheap

Overall Review: REALLY 25 bucks for a pretty intricate little machine that I didn't build. This thing is LIGHT..it has to be, or it would need a much bigger battery and cost much more. It's a toy!

Fantastic!

EnGenius EAP9550 N300 Wireless Access Point/Repeater
EnGenius EAP9550 N300 Wireless Access Point/Repeater

Pros: Very simple setup. Very little documentation, but most understand what to do. Covers most of my 10 acre lot and covers my entire house with 90% being the lowest corners. Nothing else came close. I use with POE and have not lost signal in 6 weeks.

Cons: Not much of a gripe, but as stated, there is little documentation. Simple to figure out though. If you've setup wifi before you'll know what to do. I don't know where people are reading that the POE injector is included? I guess if it doesn't say that it's NOT included, then they assume that it is.

Overall Review: Our house is way out in the country and we lose Winstream quite a bit. When it comes back up I have NEVER had to touch this thing. It is up and running on it's own. I have it stuck way up in a return chase on my first floor and hate the thought of having to go back in and mess with it, so I did the injector route. I'm using the EnGenius EPE-5818AF injector.

Flawless install and storage.

Hitachi GST Deskstar 0S03230 3TB 5400 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: Just like any other hard drive, but MUCH bigger!

Cons: Zero...see below.

Overall Review: I have a 16TB WHS(ASUS P6T6) feeding 5 networked mini Win 7 MCE's. I bet I've had 60-70 drives in the 8-9 years of building machines. As I grow my needs I just upgrade. I can guarantee that I have lost at least 1 drive from every single manufacture. When they are new, NE steps up and RMA's them. When they are older, I treat them like tires, they get changed. They will all fail eventually. I would alway recommend that you DO YOUR BACKUPS! These drives running like a champ, but I have a backup just in case.

Great Mix that requires patients

Pros: Nice solid feel, the quality is there dispite what some will say. Great idea to combine the two needs for MCE in one bundle. Very pleased.

Cons: As one reviewer wrote, the mouse requires super talents. I have kept a mouse atached for when I am not stable enough to be exacting as required to surf. Maybe a rollerball would have been a better choice by MS, but people would even complain about that too.

Overall Review: Brilliant idea, needs some work. I am happy enough to own three. (one for each room)
