Most Favorable Review

Fantastic TV, better price

Toshiba 40" 1080p 60Hz LCD HDTV
Toshiba 40" 1080p 60Hz LCD HDTV

Pros: Awesome picture. 1080p (although Comcast only broadcasts @ 720) 3x DVI ports | 2x A/V ports | 2x Composite ports - a ton of ports.

Cons: As previously mentioned, speakers are a bit on the rough side - not during normal viewing, but when there's a lot going on at the same time, it begins to crack a bit and not sound so hot. Understandable, however, given how thin the TV is.

Overall Review: More ports than you can shake a stick at - I may comment further when I hook up my DVI to HDMI cable and play some video games / videos from my PC, but it's just a fantastic set. Free shipping and the price make it an awesome deal.

Most Critical Review
Microsoft Wireless Media Desktop 1000
Microsoft Wireless Media Desktop 1000

Pros: Awesome keyboard; smooth keystrokes.

Cons: The mouse. Everything about the mouse. Wicked heavy (could be objective given I've never used a mouse with 2x AA's in it before) and the scroll wheel stops working about ~ a day every time. There's a 'fix,' but it involves taking the batteries out of the mouse every time it happens then putting them back in which fixes the problem for about another day.

Overall Review: Was purchased for my main PC but is now in my bedroom for my secondary PC / TV.

KINGWIN HDMIC-02 6 ft. Black HDMI Male to DVI Male Extension Cable
KINGWIN HDMIC-02 6 ft. Black HDMI Male to DVI Male Extension Cable

Pros: Cheap, no issues with image distortion, graininess or lost signals.

Cons: Had to wait two days instead of picking one up for 15x the price at a retail box, if that counts.

Overall Review: Works as expected.

Kingston 2GB MicroSD Flash Card  w/ SD Adapter Model SDC/2GB
Kingston 2GB MicroSD Flash Card w/ SD Adapter Model SDC/2GB

Pros: Saved ~30 - 40 dollars here as opposed to other brick-and-mortar stores. Works great, no issues, BB Pearl 8100 picks it up fine; reads card @ 1.8 gb.

Cons: Unlike a "traditional" store, I couldn't take it home the very second I bought it - not a bad shipping time, however, just not instant.
