Most Favorable Review

Glad I got this

LIAN LI PC-A17B Black Aluminum ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
LIAN LI PC-A17B Black Aluminum ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: Removeable motherboard tray Wire management good Lots of screws (I like screws, screwless is a gimmick), and handy box for screws Hard drives slip into place Very silent

Cons: If you are going SLI you will probably have to move the hard drive cage.

Overall Review: I had an Antec Nine Hundred case until it was stolen from me. This is a better case.

Most Critical Review

Known problem

Linksys RE2000 N600 Dual Band Wireless Range Extender
Linksys RE2000 N600 Dual Band Wireless Range Extender

Pros: Can choose to plug in directly into wall or use a power cord. Looks OK.

Cons: Many of these units only work for about a week and then seems to get caught in some sort of bootlooping where the indicator light will begin blinking all the time. "RE2000 blinking" is a common problem yet Linksys continues to sell the item. I am in the process of returning my second one.

Overall Review: Returned directly to NewEgg the first time, had to pay shipping, wish I was a Premier member then. This time I spent a couple of hours with Linksys to arrange a return.

Works alright

Sunpentown SD-652 Mini Dehumidifier
Sunpentown SD-652 Mini Dehumidifier

Pros: It does the job. I think it looks alright. I think it might be slightly less efficient than the old one that I had, but I can't be certain. That said, it is collecting some water so it works.

Cons: Light on the front is always on when running.

Great deal

Samsung ML-1865W Workgroup Monochrome Wi-Fi Laser Printer
Samsung ML-1865W Workgroup Monochrome Wi-Fi Laser Printer

Pros: Good laser print quality. I got drivers and software from website and had no problem getting Wi-Fi to work.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I hope the laser toner lasts a long time... I don't print too often so this should be a better purchase for me than inkjet.

Sitting pretty so far

EVGA E758-A1 3-Way SLI (x16/x16/x8) LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX Intel Motherboard
EVGA E758-A1 3-Way SLI (x16/x16/x8) LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: Simple setup, and manual shows where all the connections are. Overclocking tool great for a modest overclocker like me.

Cons: N/A

Overall Review: I used to buy all MSI boards but I think I'm an eVGA fanboy now.
