Nice turn key I7 system

Pros: A lot of machine for the dollar (paid $999 on sale). If you were to build one yourself you might save a little but not much. It is a very well thought out machine and chassis. I believe HP better supports their products than some of the cheaper off brand PC's. Their web site is excellent for drivers Etc.
Cons: Cost. As stated there are cheaper off brand PC's out there.
Overall Review: Its an HP and I hope I get 4 years out of it like my last HP machine.
True sine wave UPS output

Pros: True sine wave output ups. Very fast swich over time as it is line interactive.
Cons: Price. All sine wave output UPS models by any manufacturer are very pricy.
Overall Review: You get what you pay for. There is a reason most large businesses use APC for the UPS and not some off brand. Kind of like Cisco in the networking world.
Great bang for the buck

Pros: This is basically a plug and play type of device. Plug it into a router that offers DHCP addresses, put in the management CD, configure the device and you are ready to go. I am using it as a network bridge to connect two separate LAN segments at my house that would be difficult to do by hard wire. The fact that it supports both 2.4 and 5 ghz is nice to. I have it bridging in the 5 ghz range were there is much less interference.
Cons: The only con is the $80 price. For not much more you can have a full wireless router.
Overall Review: After all LinkSys is part of Cisco so you would expect a good experience ;-).
