Pros: Got this and set up an Eyefinity 3 monitor that works just great. Asus M5V97 board running W7 x64.

Cons: Fan is a bit loud under load.

Overall Review: I did have an initial set-up problem with Eyefinity where I kept getting a black screen of death on W7 login. Solved it by unplugging all other monitors and booting primary to the adapter. Apparently it needed initialization; after that, W7 came up normally, I hooked everything back in, and Bob's your uncle it was all good to go.

Pros: Works. Solid case construction. Indicators work fine.

Cons: Did I say it ran hot? Yes, I did. It runs really hot. It's been running really hot for more than a year. I've been thinking about using it as a space heater on my porch during the winter.

Overall Review: It runs so hot, I'm kinda surprised it's still running. But I've resisted the urge to replace it - and it's still running. Wow.

Pros: Worked just fine for my Sapphire 6770 Eyefinity set-up.

Cons: None I've noticed.

Pros: It does actually tune some channels. You can use this to view cable TV. It does tune some unencrypted QAM.

Cons: The first clue on this piece of hardware should be looking at the manufacturer's site. You can barely find any information on the device, let alone FAQs or software download support. Then, Totalmedia 3 - horrible, horrible software. Any of you who have experience with Snapstream, Sage, or GB-PVR will wonder why this bundle was ever written, let alone selected. Incredibly poor - Snapstream *used* to support this hardware, doesn't anymore, and I can see why. The BDA filters have to be coaxed to even work - and as mentioned in some other reviews, switching between analog and digital is exceedingly painful. The Hauppauge 1600 tuned in more OTA channels with the same antenna. A shame as the Philips chip in here should be capable of more than what's being provided with this card. Couldn't find any other software other than TM3 to control this card. Comcast Atlanta tuning failed miserably on this unit. To say the documentation is poor would be, frankly, an understatement.

Overall Review: I have experience with a number of tuners and pvr packages - I bought this to try unencrypted QAM, and while it does work (sometimes), this card's deficiencies far outweigh its capabilities. One word. AVOID. Don't waste your money. Find something else. I've used Diamond, ATI, and Hauppauge (my current preference) and have them all running still. I pulled this card and stuck it in my closet. Enough said.

Pros: Works totally as advertised. It will fit an Inspiron 6000 laptop, Have it running with Nero and several other burner programs on DVD+R. Have not burned DVD+R DL yet. Appears to burn near speeds advertised on my notebook.

Cons: Doesn't exactly fit flush to the Dell bezel (I consider this Dell's fault, not NEC's). The NEC's front plate will sink in about a 1/4 of an inch into the laptop from the original drive.

Overall Review: I'd buy it again if I had the need for another.

Pros: Been a workhorse for me since April of 2006. I move a lot of data between several machines on a regular basis and I have yet to encounter a compatibility issue. Thought I might have a problem with losing or breaking the cap, but the cap is much more sturdy than I expected. My lettering hasn't worn off like other users, and I've given it a resonable amount of physical abuse.

Cons: The activity LED is poorly placed and hard to see, but not that I care that much. Certainly not a blazingly fast drive.
