Pros: Got this for my OpenBSD firewall build and it is quite a joy to have. Gigabit connection at full duplex. Really speeded up my bulk file transfers.

Cons: There is no low profile bracket included

Overall Review: Realtek RTL8168E - 2Transmit 3Receive

Pros: I was excited when it arrived on Thu. - dead by Sat. You are kidding me, right? I used it to replace another D-Link that had died. I am really frustrated over this becuase I didn't even get to put my standby switch back where I got it from.

Cons: No more D-Link failures for me. EVER!

Overall Review: Trying to get a RMA for this

Pros: Running this as a firewall appliance using OpenBSD5.2 and the (2) Realtek NICs are fully supported. What a dream. Just drop in a PCI Wifi card and turn it into an AP.

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: These also have (2) PS/2 ports for a keyboard AND a mouse while developing your appliance applications.

Pros: Neat little proc for very small PCs. I just need something to tuck away in a corner. This CPU generates very little heat and the whole PC only pulls about 19 watts (Kill-a-watt)

Cons: None so far

Overall Review: Get one of these to drop in your 1155 socket so you can get running while you save up for the higher CPUs. These are fast on their own.

Pros: Great for appliance build with 6GB SATA and Sandforce controller. Really fast throughput when used for database rebuilds.

Cons: None so far

Overall Review: I like these SSDs esp. when they are on sale. Go Newegg!

Pros: The good news is that it is supported on OpenBSD5.2 working as an AP.

Cons: None at the moment.

Overall Review: Also includes the low profile bracket for your teeny tiny openbsd firewall appliance build.
