Most Favorable Review

Great for MacBooks

G.SKILL 1GB 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Laptop Memory Model F2-5300PHU1-1GBSA
G.SKILL 1GB 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Laptop Memory Model F2-5300PHU1-1GBSA

Pros: I bought two of these to max out my MacBook. I just slipped them in and my Mac instantly recognized them.

Cons: None!

Overall Review: Buy two! Your computer will thank you.

Pros: Not Seagate. I've been needing a >1.5TB drive and just didn't trust Seagate drives after the massive firmware issues. So far these drives have been running great for me, and I'm sure they will into the continued future.

Cons: None. These drives are golden.

Overall Review: I was really hoping to get a 2TB drive, but those are pretty expensive right now. 1.5TB seems to be the best price/GB at the moment for higher capacity storage.

Works with MacBooks

Pros: I bought this to replace the 60GB hard drive that shipped with my MacBook. Works perfectly with it. It's quiet, fast, and has all the storage I need.

Cons: None!

Overall Review: Get this hard drive. It provides the most bang for the buck.

LG 19" Active Matrix, TFT LCD SXGA LCD Monitor 8 ms D-Sub, DVI-D L1980Q
LG 19" Active Matrix, TFT LCD SXGA LCD Monitor 8 ms D-Sub, DVI-D L1980Q

Pros: This monitor is absolutely gorgeous. The bezel looks great and the quality of the image is perfect.

Cons: I have one blue stuck pixel near the right side of the screen. While the touch senstive buttons are cool, they're not that great for functionality. I would have rather had real buttons.

Overall Review: Make sure to use DVI; it greatly improves the image.

XTERASYS AN-EXT External 2.4GHz IEEE 802.11b/g Wireless Antenna Extension
XTERASYS AN-EXT External 2.4GHz IEEE 802.11b/g Wireless Antenna Extension

Pros: Greatly improved my wireless signal. I previously had a 2db antenna and I would struggle to maintain connection. Adding this 5db antenna now makes my connection rock solid.

Cons: I wish the cable was a bit longer. Other than that, this thing is perfect.

Overall Review: I was initially skeptical that an antenna this cheap would work as good as "the others". Xterasys has proved me wrong. If you need an antenna to improve your wireless signal, this is the one to get.

Pros: This is a very small Bluetooth adapter. The blue light is nice and not annoying. Best of all, it works on a Mac!

Cons: None

Overall Review: This product is perfect for anyone looking to add Bluetooth support cheaply.
