Most Favorable Review

Nice card

WINTEC FileMate 16GB Professional Class 10 Secure Digital SDHC Card - Retail
WINTEC FileMate 16GB Professional Class 10 Secure Digital SDHC Card - Retail

Pros: good size for the sale price.

Cons: None so far

Overall Review: I had never heard of WINTEC before but it works in my DSLR now. I had a scare at first since it wasn't recognized at first in my DSLR or Desktop card reader but I put it in my point and shoot camera and it read the card and then it worked in my DSLR and desktop.

Most Critical Review

Not a Shielded cable

Belkin A3L980-03-RED-S 3 ft. Cat 6 Red Patch Cable CAT6 Snagless RJ-45M / RJ-45M
Belkin A3L980-03-RED-S 3 ft. Cat 6 Red Patch Cable CAT6 Snagless RJ-45M / RJ-45M

Pros: It is a cable and works with my network

Cons: It is not shielded so I can't use is with my audio video receiver which I bought it for. The package that the cable came in stated right on it that it was a UTP network cable NOT a STP or S/STP cable.

Overall Review: I threw it in my junk drawer in case I need it for something else later because it cost half of what I would have to payto ship it back. It is disgraceful that a company started around computer parts is selling a non-shielded cable as being shielded.

Acer has pulled support

Pros: Great computer for the price

Cons: Acer has pulled support for this product. Search their website for a manual drivers, or anything else. All you get is "internal server error"

Good ball head, Bad tripod

Dolica GX600B200 60-Inch Proline Aluminum Tripod with Ball Head
Dolica GX600B200 60-Inch Proline Aluminum Tripod with Ball Head

Pros: Good ball head. I really like the fluid panning, but it can be almost too slow.

Cons: the center column of the tripod is not study unless it is at least half way down. I use a 7lb. DSLR and I am not impressed with the tripod.

Overall Review: I plan on putting the ball head on a different set of legs.

All plastic

Rosewill RDCR-11002 All-in-one USB 3.0 Card Reader
Rosewill RDCR-11002 All-in-one USB 3.0 Card Reader

Pros: It works good and has both the SD and Micro SD slot that I wanted, plus USB 3.0

Cons: It is extremely light as if it is made of nothing but plastic

Overall Review: I am afraid to take this with my in my backpack for fear that someone might accidentally kick my backpack and smash this into a hundred pieces. Can't comment on speed I do not have USB 3.0 yet and have not tested on USB 2.0 with my UHS I SD card

Love them!!! ALOT!

Polk Audio Monitor70 Series II Floorstanding Loudspeaker (Black) Single
Polk Audio Monitor70 Series II Floorstanding Loudspeaker (Black) Single

Pros: They have a good sound. I can hear soo much more detail watching movies then I could when I was using my THX certified Logitec Z-2300 speakers (200w RMS). Not as clean as high end speakers but I didn't expect them to considering the price and that they were a entry level speaker in terms of quality when they came out, and from the reviews I have read is around 2002. I usually leave the sub off except for movies because there is plenty of bass unless your listening to Rap/R&B. These are a steal for Newegg's sale price.

Cons: I have NO complaints what-so-ever.

Overall Review: Yamaha rx-v671 - receiver Monitor 70 - fronts Monitor CS2 - center RTI6 pair - rears PSW505 - subwoofer Atrium 6s - zone 2 outdoor patio
