Big Laptop

ASUS 15.6" Intel Pentium T4400 4GB Memory Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit P50IJ-X2
ASUS 15.6" Intel Pentium T4400 4GB Memory Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit P50IJ-X2

Pros: Fast laptop with a lot of features. Wide keyboard with separate number pad. Wireless 802.11N Lan and wired 1gigbyte Lan. Hard drive at 320 GB is larger than comparable laptops in this price range. Four USB ports instead of three like a comparable Dell. Happy with this purchase.

Cons: Laptop is bigger (wider) than I thought. Not really a con, unless you are looking for portability. My bad, as the specs were posted on newegg, but its still a great purchase and a nice laptop.

Overall Review: Very affordable with a lot of features.

Most Critical Review

Not worth the money

Link Depot LD-HDMI-SW3P HDMI 3 PORTS SWITCHES W/REMOTE
Link Depot LD-HDMI-SW3P HDMI 3 PORTS SWITCHES W/REMOTE

Pros: It works... sort of. It does allow you to connect up to three HDMI devices to a TV single HDMI input. Cheap price.

Cons: The output HDMI suffers from signal loss to my HD TV. If more than one device is connected to this switch the signal is weakened. It showed up as lines in my Satellite TV HD Box when I had a PC connected. No matter what I did, when my HD satellite box still put lines in the HDMI display. Only if I bypassed this switch did the lines go away. Can't use it.

Overall Review: I'll look for another switch with higher signal quality. This one is not worth the money.

Great monitor for the money.

Pros: Excellent picture, the blue light protection makes it easy to spend time working online. Comes with an HDMI cable

Cons: None

Overall Review: I really liked this monitor! I bought three of them and all worked perfectly out of the box.

Pros: Fast install

Cons: It’s Windows

Overall Review: Windows 10, it works. Microsoft doesn’t have enough money so I bought this.

Awesome

ASUS 24" (23.8" Viewable) Full HD 75Hz IPS with FreeSync (Adaptive Sync) Blue Light Filter, Flicker-Free Built-in Speakers Computer Monitor for Work & Causal Gaming VA24DQ
ASUS 24" (23.8" Viewable) Full HD 75Hz IPS with FreeSync (Adaptive Sync) Blue Light Filter, Flicker-Free Built-in Speakers Computer Monitor for Work & Causal Gaming VA24DQ

Pros: This monitor is awesome! It easier to spend time working or playing with less eye strain using this monitor. Picture quality is excellent at this price point. It is well built and sets up in seconds Tilt range up and down is pretty good. I use it for my part time job as an adjunct professor where I spend a lot of the time staring at the screen grading and teaching. Great for web surfing, video editing or just watching movies (DVD or Blue ray). Will buy another!

Cons: None really for this price. It does tilt, but does not raise up and down as you might expect with higher priced office use monitors. I just added an adjustable monitor stand to compensate.

Overall Review: I would buy another and recommend this monitor.

Great overall value!

Pros: Board is an exceptional value for price and features. Having RAID on board was one of the primary reasons I purchased this board. Bios was a bit awkward to set up raid with data drives and use the m.2 slot for c drive. Finally figured out the correct settings. Now it runs like a dream!

Cons: None for me

Overall Review: I would recommend this board. It has a bunch of features and offers plenty of capability.
