Short and Sweet

Nippon Labs HDMI-HS-3 3 ft. HDMI 2.0 Male to Male High Speed Cable with Ethernet Channel, Black

Pros: It's a cable .. it was cheap, it works great... no problems with audio or video

Cons: I too was not sure how short 3 feet was until...

Overall Review: After some tweaking to my system and a hd wizard dvd. I found this cable to be worth way more then I was charged. NewEgg rocks out with their Cables out!

Most Critical Review

won't be a third time

ASUS M3A78-EMH HDMI <GREEN> AM2+/AM2 AMD 780G HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard
ASUS M3A78-EMH HDMI <GREEN> AM2+/AM2 AMD 780G HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: Every thing they advertised would have been great! for the short time the second one lived I loved it!!!! I OC'ed the hell out of it and enjoyed every minute of it... with Vista, DX 10.1 was attainable... and Mass effect looked like real life... almost...

Cons: Can't keep one alive... The first one died almost instantly... (2 hours or so) but, this one waited till I was settled in to die off... I have noticed a trend as well... My 80x86 and my first acer 80x286 still run after 18 years... we as a geek are getting lax. We demand progress, and, free access to information & a good means to get it... what we need to demand is free (or a reasonablably priced) access to quality... by the time I'm usually done I spend more on RMA shipping then I did on the *deal* I got

Overall Review: To whomever said you have a high technical understanding and then said you couldn't change the multiplier, is phibbing about something. This board is great for OC'ing if you can keep it alive. It has the option of changing the multiplier from "like" 8 to 16. I can't look it up cause it is fried. And I don't normally comment on others comments, but, that was just not intelligent I changed mine 10 times before it became unstable... how was that for PC? :)

Awesome deal!

AGPtek 7”-inch Android 4.2 8GB Touchscreen Tablet PC w/ Free HDMI Cable - W-iFi, Quad Core HD Cortex A7, 1GB RAM, 1.5GHZ, HDMI, G-sensor, Google Play Pre-Installed

Pros: 8gb storage, up to 1.5 quad-core A7 procesor, 1GB of RAM, HDMI, Jelly bean 4.2. All for 90 bucks!

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: Bought 3 for christmas presents, Naturally I had to open them to check them out. I was impressed throughly for the money I paid. They are fast, The image is clean. The wieght is light, But still heavy enough to denote quality. I will probably pick up 2 more for me and the wife next payday if the deal is still running.

Common MSI problem...

MSI B75A-G43 LGA 1155 Intel B75 HDMI USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS
MSI B75A-G43 LGA 1155 Intel B75 HDMI USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS

Pros: Got it from Newegg.... about sums it up... Going to get my money back. that's a plus I guess

Cons: After doing this for 25 years... (yeah I actually get to legally use that tech level) I have never had a problem where I had a bent pin on anything... I didn't notice and put the processor in hooked set the RAM and monitor and booted for beep codes... nothing... Spend more time taking everything back apart... Noticed it then. Started reading the comments on other MSI products and I noticed it happens a lot on all their boards... So much for QC...

Overall Review: Won't be buying from MSI any more... That said before purchasing anything else outside of a personal trusted source, I'm going to study a few of said companies other products to make sure there isn't any patterns I should have steered clear of And Newegg gets 5 eggs for service of course.

Asus Strikes Again...

ASUS USB 2.0 External Slim DVD±R/RW Drive Model SDRW-08D1S-U BK
ASUS USB 2.0 External Slim DVD±R/RW Drive Model SDRW-08D1S-U BK

Pros: None. Unit was not DOA and has not died yet. Although it could go at any minute... This is the fourth, Asus, item in a row that I have purchased that is garbage.

Cons: Unit is faulty. Will not burn anything. I tried it on 4 different PC's & 1 netbook. Windows XP, Vista, and 7. I used 3 different burning softwares... I now have a wide collection coasters... Their QC department has really gone to the birds. Asus used to mean quality. The last 2 MB's I ordered did not work for long. In fact, everything I have purchased from Asus recently (last five years or so) has not lasted more the 1 1/2 years... Back to the drive I will say this... it looks slick, and if yours works great. but it scratchs beyond easy. I set a blank cd on top of the unit and when the edge of it brushed the surface it left a horrendous squiggly mark... Im kinda glad it doesnt work... I'd hate to see what it would look like in a month.

Overall Review: Boo Asus... Of course Newegg went above and beyond and actually got me my package before was estimated... good show. I gave it 1 egg, cause I had to...
