Microsoft  QQA-00001S  Black  USB  Digital Media Keyboard 3000 and Mouse Kit
Microsoft QQA-00001S Black USB Digital Media Keyboard 3000 and Mouse Kit

Pros: Function keys out the wazoo. Decent overall design.

Cons: Keys are sorta spongy. Mouse is light compared to my old Logitech mouse but it does the job.

Overall Review: Real nice keyboard and mouse for $20 plus ship. Would have been great with free ship. Got here in 1 day. You gotta love Newegg.

Most Critical Review

What's up AVG?

AVG Anti-Virus & Anti-Spyware V8.0 1User/2Year Small Box
AVG Anti-Virus & Anti-Spyware V8.0 1User/2Year Small Box

Pros: It's a anti-virus, anti-spyware. Doesn't use a whole lot of resources.

Cons: Can't get the stupid thing to update. Not sure why. Just won't do it.

Overall Review: I used the free version for years so I decided to buy the box. I like the interface better than 7.5. My problem is that it WON'T update. I can't even get to AVG's website. Every time I try to access there site I get a page loading error. Tried it with Firefox and Explorer. Same thing with both. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm fresh out of them. I might rank this software higher if I can ever update it.

Nice Washer

LG WM2233HW White 3.83 cu.ft. Front-Loading Washer
LG WM2233HW White 3.83 cu.ft. Front-Loading Washer

Pros: Gets clothes really clean. Spin cycle reduces drying time. Cool design.

Cons: VIBRATION. Tried everything known to man but it still vibrates. Finally reduced the vibration to a manageable level.

Overall Review: Like most front load washers, this thing does vibrate so keep that in mind when you buy it. My house is old and the laundry room floor isn't reinforced so that could be a lot of the problem. If your laundry room is sturdy or is in a basement you might not have that big an issue with the vibration. It does clean the clothes better than our old top loader and with the spin cycle the clothes literally take half as long to dry. This is with the spin cycle on LOW. I didn't buy our washer from Newegg; I found it @ local store for 449. An UNBELIEVABLE deal. Got a 2 year service contract with it; so with tax it was still only 530. It was a great deal at this price but is worth the money considering the energy savings.

Killer lcd

ASUS VH222H Black 21.5" 5ms HDMI Widescreen 16:9 Full HD 1080P LCD Monitor Built in Speakers 300 cd/m2 1000:1 (ASCR20000:1) w/ SPDIF out
ASUS VH222H Black 21.5" 5ms HDMI Widescreen 16:9 Full HD 1080P LCD Monitor Built in Speakers 300 cd/m2 1000:1 (ASCR20000:1) w/ SPDIF out

Pros: Great overall design. Easy to connect multiple devises to it. Great color reproduction and blacks look great. Built-in speakers are O.K. 1080p! Got it for $169 plus free ship.

Cons: Some light bleeding @ top, bottom, and sides but reading several reviews that seems like a common problem with lcd's in general. Haven't figured out how to get the audio from the hdmi to my computer speakers yet. Some viewing angel issues especially if you're looking at the monitor from above. UPS are idiots! Ordered the monitor Thursday. Shipped from Cali that day. Arrived in Louisville Friday morning. Instead of sending the monitor to Bowling Green then to my house, UPS sent it to Lexington were it sat all weekend. Could have gotten it on Saturday but had to wait until Tuesday. Oh, well, not Newegg's fault. The Egg rocks.

Overall Review: This is my first lcd monitor and I'm impressed. Vibrant colors compared to my old ( and I mean OLD ) crt monitor. Being able to switch between my computer and my 360 is nice. 360 looks awesome on this monitor. A great monitor for the price.
