Great Value

Pros: This laptop is a great value for what you get. You cannot find a laptop out there that beats this ones amazing specs for the price. It has dual core processing at 2.3GHZ which (in my opinion) is pretty good for a cheaper laptop. The battery life is much better than I expected; it handled installing all of my software, uninstalling some of the stuff on it all the while streaming music and surfing the web for 3 hours and was only at 50%!!! The speaker quality is much better than other laptops that I've dealt with. On top of everything else, it has a video card that isn't awful which was way more than I expected at this price. You may have to turn the graphics or resolution down on some games but it will run lots. This is an incredibly well rounded computer.
Cons: The only downside so far has been all the bloat-ware that came bundled in with it. It's not too big of a deal though because it doesn't take long to uninstall (if you aren't an idiot who can't uninstall something) and almost any pc you buy now-a-days comes with it. If you want to save time on the bloat-ware, just get a clean install of windows 7 and you will be amazed with how much better it runs.
Overall Review: Most of the complaints that I read about this were the thickness, the bloat-ware, and even not enough USB ports. Thickness: Personally, I like a laptop with a little heft. This lets me know that it is not a flimsy piece of plastic. If it is really so encumber-sum so carry, you probably shouldn't be walking. Bloat-ware: As I mentioned before, it doesn't take long to uninstall and after you do, you'll have an amazing machine. USB: What on earth was that guy talking about? It has enough for any mobile user. I have no idea how you could use more than 3 or 4 on a laptop that isn't stationary on a desk or even what they would be for. I'm going into college for a type of computer engineering and this computer will do everything I want and more. Don't hesitate to buy!!!
Great keyboard

Pros: The Cherry MX Blue switches are the best switches I have ever used for typing. It's truly an amazing feeling when you press each key down and hear the satisfying click and know that the button was pressed. The light adjustment for the backlight is very nice as well; I can set it so it's not too bright or too dim. While I primarily bought this keyboard for typing, I do enjoy first person shooters quite regularly. After a bit of a learning curve adjusting to the slightly different key spacing, I have to say that gaming is more enjoyable. It's a bit easier to tell if I'm actually pressing a button or not and the Cherry MX Blues require enough force so I don't accidentally press wrong buttons.
Cons: Personally, I'm not a fan of the font chosen for key caps. I find it rather ugly, especially the "R" key. The only other minor complaint I have is with the M-keys; they work fine, but they don't have the functionality I thought they would have. I have never owned a keyboard with macro keys, only mice with the extra buttons, so I assumed that in a game, I could set the M-keys to standalone button presses and have a few more buttons available relatively close to my WASD block; this was not the case. The M-keys have to be set to either a Macro or an already existing button. This is a little disappointing to me as I don't often use macros and almost all of my other buttons are already mapped. I would love it if my games could recognize M-keys as standalone buttons.
Overall Review: Having been unfortunate enough to be the owner of a Razer Lycosa that has had nothing but problems, I was hesitant to get another Razer keyboard. Seeing as I got this on a decent Black Friday sale at Best Buy and that this keyboard had the Cherry MX Blue switches that I was looking for made me take the risk. So far, I am loving it. **Note, I did not take the 1 egg off because of the M-keys, I took it off because I really despise this awful font selected for the keycaps. I know it's very vain of me, but the "L," "7," and "R" keys are all the same shape just resized or rotated. This is a serious problem for a keyboard to have. Razer, please give consumers the option for different keycaps.
Cool as in chilly!

Pros: This case is the biggest mid-size tower I've seen so far. The pictures just don't give it credit for the sheer size. The cable management is amazing as well. The blue LEDs are pretty tight as well. The best thing about this case is the cooling; this keeps my cores running about 4 degrees celcius cooler than my previous case. I'm currenty running at around 19 degrees celcius while idle and 24 degrees celcius while gaming.
Cons: The little screw things that the motherboard sits on were a pain to get in, it seemed like the holes drilled in the case weren't quite big enough to screw in easily. This isn't a big deal since I had pliers with me to rig up a way to get them in.
Overall Review: I have a green LED on my CPU fan that creates a cool black hole effect when you look straight at my case. Do not hesitate if you are looking for the best mid-size tower you can find.
Works Great

Pros: From my basement to my router which is through 1 floor and two walls I have a signal that flutters between full and 4 bars. It's a solid design that feels very sturdy while staying small enough not to clutter the desk. The antenna looks pretty cool too.
Cons: I do wish it had a little bit more weight to it, but so far it has remained stable and hasn't moved even if the desk shakes because of a train or child running in to it.
Overall Review: This was a huge upgrade from a PCI Express wireless card that lost signal constantly. I am very impressed with Zonet and will be doing business with them again in the future. Don't hesitate to buy!
Great Headset

Pros: The actual sound quality of this headset is superb. It has a very full sounding bass. The structure seems to be very sturdy and could hold up in daily use. The mic quality is way more than I expected for a headset of this price; I actually got some compliments while playing Team Fortress 2 on the actual sound quality. When I recorded on Audacity it gave it a slight ringing background noise but it wasn't too big of a deal and I haven't had the problem in any other recording programs so I think the problem is in Audacity itself.
Cons: On me personally, my ears get sore after a couple hours of wearing it. This isn't that big of a deal though because every headset I've ever worn regardless of the price or quality has done this (I must have odd shaped ears.) The only real negative I can say is the shipping cost. An entire order shipped cheaper than this thing. The low price makes up for the shipping in my opinion.
Overall Review: I got this headset as a medium quality one to do some gaming, and even some video editing with and I do say, it was well worth the money.
