Most Favorable Review

Works Great - Toshiba M35X

PNY Optima 1GB 200-Pin DDR SO-DIMM DDR 333 (PC 2700) Laptop Memory Model MN1024SD1-333
PNY Optima 1GB 200-Pin DDR SO-DIMM DDR 333 (PC 2700) Laptop Memory Model MN1024SD1-333

Pros: Works just fine, good stuff.

Cons: Don't think there are any.

Overall Review: Laptop memory about the easiest thing ever. It only had 256m originally and I just added the 1gig. It found both and boots/runs much faster. And ... Newegg as always is the best.

Most Critical Review

Won't work with Dish Network DVR

Eagle Tech 1TB USB 2.0 3.5" External Hard Drive ET-CS1000NPSU2-BK
Eagle Tech 1TB USB 2.0 3.5" External Hard Drive ET-CS1000NPSU2-BK

Pros: Seems to be a solid Drive, hooked up to my PC and it just worked great.

Cons: Won't work with Dish Network DVR receivers. That's the only reason it's not 5 eggs.

Overall Review: Finding External drives that work with Dish receivers is a real hit or miss expedition. Hopefully someone else looking for a 1T external drive will read this and choose something else.

Good stuff

CORSAIR 1GB DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Desktop Memory Model VS1GB667D2

Pros: Wow, what a buy for the $$$$. You just can't go wrong with this. I bought a new 478 board for a failed eMachine and added this for so little more. Works great!

Cons: Hmmmm ... let me think ... hmmm ... nope, can't think of any.

Overall Review: Thanks Newegg, you guys rock!

BIOSTAR P4M900M4 Socket 478 VIA P4M900 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: Great mb if you need a socket 478 board. I had an eMachine that crashed and this filled the bill. Very minimal setup (other than Windows verification ... that's another story). Worked as advertised

Cons: None really, if you wanted more than what this has, you should have ordered that!

Overall Review: Newegg rocks ... fast shipping, accurate descriptions. Good luck if you try to put this in an existing PC. The good folks will think you installed your XP in a different pc. If you run into a roadblock, just keep calling and explaining what you need. It took me 4 different people before I got somebody to believe that all I did was change the MB.

Seems like good stuff

BUFFALO Select 1GB (2 x 512MB) DDR 400 (PC 3200) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model DD4002-KS1G/BR

Pros: It works just fine. Like all ram, simple to install and bios picked it up right off the bat.

Cons: Ummm, I'm thinkig .... ummm .... guess there isn't any cons

Overall Review: My 2nd build, building an econo box and this stuff was cheap and does a great job.

Fast for it's age

AMD Athlon 64 3400+ - Athlon 64 Venice Single-Core 2.2 GHz Socket 939 Processor - ADA3400DAA4BY
AMD Athlon 64 3400+ - Athlon 64 Venice Single-Core 2.2 GHz Socket 939 Processor - ADA3400DAA4BY

Pros: Seems faster to me than the 3400+ rating. It's AMD, it just works.

Cons: Nope, not today

Overall Review: My 2nd build. First was a 3500+. In MoBo with 2 gig ram and raid 0 raptor drives. This cpu with 1 gig ram and single SATA boots and seems to run a LOT faster. I'm happy!
