Vanguard Laptop Case
Pros: Fantastic size, and deepblack shine. has space for the 17" wide Laptop that came with it.
Cons: Newegg should do these specials more often.
ergonomic KB hard to get used to
Pros: nice small form factor.
Cons: loke lighted buttons more than all black KB. ergonomical shape does NOT work for me. ejectable numbers section too flimsy and should be at the bottom of the keyboard. special buttons at top are sticking out - TOO easy to touch. mouse roller should be a trackball.
Overall Review: STAY AWAY. odd shape, too thick, WAIT for a better design or competitor.
WORKS
Pros: WORKS AS IT SHOULD.
Cons: NO
YES: 8 MB cache, and fast NTFS filing
Pros: NTFS filing system, compared to WesternDidital and others (means faster writing of many small files). 8 MB cache, which WD does not give. Metal casing (WD gives plastic). Nicer looks (yep, counts too).
Cons: Price per GB still high. Looking for $ 60 breakthru.
Overall Review: Love the peachy gold color. Have 3 WD 120 GB 2.5" drives, so I can see and experience the difference. Still love WD though.
Nice iPod looks
Pros: Sony quality. Nice iPod look. red light shows on off and status. Cover fits good. reads and writes fast and good.
Cons: memsticks go in from the side. Should be insertable from the back. A little thick.
Best desktop replacement
Pros: Fantastic looks, no problems with Vista. After 1 .5 months of 17" wide you never wanna go back to less. Acer software OK. Crystal Brite LCD screen shines where no other has ever gone before !! DVD+/-RW burner works fine. Very light to carry. Dual Core really does multiple tasking and makes gaming a breeze (especially World of Warcraft). Music is loud and clear (contrary to what others state) and keeps up with my Dell desktop speakers.
Cons: missing firewire connection.
Overall Review: LOVE IT !!
