Most Favorable Review

Good Board - Intel needs to provide more information

Intel BOXD955XBKLKR LGA 775 Intel 955X ATX Intel Motherboard
Intel BOXD955XBKLKR LGA 775 Intel 955X ATX Intel Motherboard

Comments: It would have been excellent if not because of lack of information I spent 2 days trying to get it to work. First: If you are using Windows XP, you can't install the Intel Driver CD unless you are at least at SP1. The XP Prof. CD I had was the original one and the Intel CD will just not install. It complaints about missing files and aborts. 2) Along the same lines, unless the XP CD is at SP1 you can't set a Raid array greater than 130 GBs. All this information is hidden in the MS and Intel web site when it should be noted up front. I spent two days figuring this out and even got an RMA to return the board.

Most Critical Review

Not reliable - lasted two years and quit without warning

Buffalo 2TB DriveStation External Hard Drive
Buffalo 2TB DriveStation External Hard Drive

Pros: Nothing special

Cons: Based on my experience, I would not use this drive for storage of items that you can't afford to lose. I was using it for system backups and it quit without warning from one day to the other. In addition, having it connected to a USB port caused the computer to hang during boot.

Overall Review: I had the impression that Buffalo drives implied quality and reliability. Apparently, that is not the case. Had this drive for a couple of years using it for system backups and it quit overnight. I still have external drive from Seagate and Maxtor that are close to 10 years old and are still working. Unfortunately, the storage capacity is too small and unable to use for backups

Good UPS at a great price

Overall Review: I already have an older CyberPower 1000VA for several years and never had any problems with it. I have not began using it yet but I have done some limited testing and every thing seems to be working fine

Telephone connection problems

Nokia Lumia 521 T-Mobile No Contract 1.0GHz Windows Smart Phone
Nokia Lumia 521 T-Mobile No Contract 1.0GHz Windows Smart Phone

Pros: Inexpensive, Windows 8 is good, can be Hot Spot to connect devices to the Internet. It would be a good phone if it wasn't for the problems described in "Cons"

Cons: Random "can't connect" messages when trying to make a phone call. Requires powering down and back up. T'Mobile replaced it once. The second has the same problem. The Internet has others with same problem.

Perfect replacement for HP485041-002

Pros: Came very well packaged. it appears well made and high quality. It arrived fully charged. Replaced HP 484041-002. battery on a CQ-50. Fit perfectly..Base on looks, I would say is of similar or better quality that the stock HP battery that came with the laptop

Cons: So far, none

Pros: I really haven't been able to use the drive. Still fighting problems created by installing Nero 8

Cons: The version of Nero 8 that ships with the drive has problems and will cause items in the notification area to dissapear and other problems. Do not Install Nero 8
