Most Favorable Review

Good price but not super heavy duty

Brother HL-5450DN High Speed Single Function Laser Printer with Networking and Duplex Printing
Brother HL-5450DN High Speed Single Function Laser Printer with Networking and Duplex Printing

Pros: Fast install on a network. Network tools show me which ones need toner or service from my desk. We run some of these units hard, switch between paper and labels, and they really jam infrequently.

Cons: Two of my heaviest use machines needed new fuser rollers after just 18 months. Unfortunately, the cost of the fuser rollers is close to the cost of a new printer so even though I don't like throwing out working equipment, it doesn't make sense to repair.

Overall Review: I have 5 of these that I'm responsible for peppered around my plant. They give plenty of warning when the toner goes low to when they actually stop printing. Since we have multiple machines, we keep toner on hand.

Most Critical Review

works but no sound

Tripp Lite DisplayPort to HDMI Cable Adapter, Converter for DP to HDMI (M/F), 1920x1200/1080p, 6-in. (P136-000)
Tripp Lite DisplayPort to HDMI Cable Adapter, Converter for DP to HDMI (M/F), 1920x1200/1080p, 6-in. (P136-000)

Pros: It provides great video quality

Cons: Not only is there no sound, but the laptop does not see the HDMI audio channel. I haven't been able to figure out why or if it is something else wrong.

Overall Review: Our new high end Lenovo laptops at work have Display Port outputs for video instead of HDMI or DVI (as well as the old VGA port). We are connecting the laptops to a new 55" conference room monitor that only has HDMI inputs. We use this Display Port to HDMI adapter coupled with a long HDMI cable. The video quality is great, but no sound. I haven't brought in a DVD player or anything yet to prove that it isn't the monitor at fault.

good little sound card

StarTech ICUSBAUDIO USB to Stereo Audio Adapter Converter

Pros: Had a generic computer build by our previous IT department who's motherboard sound card stopped working. This little device plugged right into one of the USB ports and the speakers plugged into it. No problems (on Windows 7 Professional). Working for over a month now.

Cons: Our Network File Servers don't have sound cards and I tried running this on one of them to see if it could also be of use. They are running Windows Server 2008 and the computer did not recognize this device. I knocked an Egg off of the rating for this, but probably shouldn't have since I didn't investigate it further and the description doesn't say that it would work with that operating system.

Overall Review: The lady running this workstation kept nagging me that she couldn't listen to her internet radio. This nifty little device solved that problem and she is now happy!

works with Lenovo PCs

StarTech.com DP2DVI DisplayPort To DVI Adapter - Passive - 1080p - DP to DVI - Display Port to DVI-D Adapter
StarTech.com DP2DVI DisplayPort To DVI Adapter - Passive - 1080p - DP to DVI - Display Port to DVI-D Adapter

Pros: Works. I had no problems with the one I purchased.

Cons: You still need to use your DVI to DVI cable. I can't seem to find a DisplayPort to DVI cable that reaches from the PC to the monitor.

Overall Review: I like Lenovo PCs but I wish they wouldn't use DisplayPort connections. Seems to be a hassle. I've had to connect most of the computers with the old school VGA ports.

Great little machines

ThinkCentre Desktop PC M73 Tiny 10AY001RUS Intel Core i3-4130T 4GB DDR3 500GB HDD Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
ThinkCentre Desktop PC M73 Tiny 10AY001RUS Intel Core i3-4130T 4GB DDR3 500GB HDD Windows 7 Professional 64-bit

Pros: Small but powerful units. I've been buying this style Lenovo for over a year to replace old XP boxes in our plant. The newer ones don't come with as much annoying add on software that needed to be removed before I put them on people's desks. They have plenty of processing power and speed for the typical office user. My users love them (or perhaps hated their 10 year old Windows XP machines!).

Cons: Newer models don't come with the VESA mounting bracket in the box. Must buy separately. My older units mount behind the monitors so they are completely hidden from the operator. Last Con: the price went up from last year.

Overall Review: I like how the newer units have built in WiFi along with the RJ-45 connector. We had a network switch go flaky and the WiFi units kept going along without interruption while the older wired units were losing their network connections.

Works with Datamax label printer

C2G 16898 USB to Centronics 36 (C36) Parallel Printer Adapter Cable, Beige (6 Feet, 1.82 Meters)
C2G 16898 USB to Centronics 36 (C36) Parallel Printer Adapter Cable, Beige (6 Feet, 1.82 Meters)

Pros: Connects a USB computer port to a Centronix port on a Datamax industrial label printer

Cons: none

Overall Review: We have two of these plugging in our shipping department plugging from new Lenovo computers to old Datamax barcode and label printers. Installing was fast and easy. Note: Running Windows 7 (x64)

quick service

It seems every website is using marketplaces now. That allows them to offer more products. I've purchased a few items from Antononline through NewEgg and everything goes smoothly.
