Whoa horsey!

Pros: So fast it scares me! Windows Experience Index is 7.4, way high! It's so small and light, I didn't even bother mounting it in the case. the power cord holds it just fine. Maybe I'll mount it later, maybe.
Cons: Price is higher than hard drives, but you'll forget about that about 15 seconds after starting up your computer.
Overall Review: Keep your eye on the SSD market, because this drive took a giant nosedive in price over the last 6 months, that's why I finally got it, but I'm sure the price will continue to go down.

Analog is great, QAM sucks

Pros: Analog signals are great, works well with Windows Vista Media Center
Cons: It finds the QAM channels on the scan but it will not tune them in when I try to view them. I have Comcast cable in Santa Barbara county and my digital TV tunes the QAM signals just fine so the problem is definitely with this card or the software. Also I think the WinTV software sucks. It's slow and the picture quality is less than that of Windows Media Center in both viewing and recording. I also don't like having separate coaxial inputs for the analog and digital because that makes me have to split the cable just for this card. No digital TV makes you do that, that I know of.
Overall Review: Normally I would jump on the newer 2250 model but I'm going to wait and see if others say the QAM works first.
BIG improvement over the previous model

Pros: Fast, smooth, and quiet Excellent tray design and operation Windows 7 recognized it instantly
Cons: none
Overall Review: I replaced a 10 year old Lite-on drive with this one and saw the improvement immediately. Faster, smoother, quieter than the previous model. Casing is more solid as well. DEFINITELY recommend this DVD-ROM drive
GET IT!

Pros: Small, lightweight, quiet, and VERY hot. Heats up instantly.
Cons: none
Overall Review: This is the best little space heater I've ever had, and I've used several over the past 20 years. It has 2 knobs to control the heat and I had to turn this thing down halfway. Full setting was just too hot for me. I use it in the office under my desk to keep a nice pocket of heat going. I'll definitely buy another one if this thing ever craps out.
All I need.

Pros: Handles all my first person shooter games and TV turner video just fine. Windows Experience Index 7.0. NICE!
Cons: none

Nice!

Pros: Works GREAT with Windows Media Center in Windows 7 Home 32-bit OS. Found all available analog and digital channels on Comcast cable in California. The new WinTV 7 is ok, better than version 6, but I'll stick with Windows Media Center for the most part
Cons: none
Overall Review: Vista found the card right away, but would not set up the digital QAM tuner. Windows 7 wouldn't find the card at all till I downloaded the driver from the Hauppauge website, then it worked great. But that MAY be because I didn't turn on the PnP OS option in the system BIOS menu on my new motherboard, which was set to OFF by default for some stupid reason.
