Pros: Very sturdy aluminum design, USB-powered with an on/off switch, dual fans directly cool both GPU and CPU, slight incline (roughly 2” at the back) helps ventilation. Fans blow air UP.

Cons: Some edges are not rounded. They aren’t sharp, but you wouldn’t want to drop it on your foot.

Overall Review: My Gateway P-172S FX (Dual Core, 8800GTS, 7200rpm HDD) used to get pretty hot playing Call of Duty 4 and Company of Heroes, but now it stays at idle temperatures in-game with the graphics cranked, even on hot summer days!

Pros: -Very slick looking. -Mic arm is flexible. -Recording quality is good. -Comes with a nice case for travel.

Cons: -Audio quality is mediocre. Absolutely no bass, so don't expect games or music to sound good. -Earbuds produce suction when inserted. I've never had earbuds do that, and it's really annoying. -Mechanism that braces the mic in your ear is somewhat uncomfortable. Cool idea but it's not very stable. -The clip on the cord is absolutely pointless.

Overall Review: These would probably be fine for casual VoIP use.

Pros: I've been using Logitech gaming mice for years and they just keep getting better. The adjustable weight and textured thumb rest make this mouse very comfortable to use. All of the buttons are easy to reach, and can be assigned keys or macros with the bundled software (software does not need to run or even be installed after first time configuration - settings are saved to the mouse's internal memory).

Cons: Logitech software could be much better. They should take some notes from the new Microsoft mouse and keyboard software.

Pros: Huge area - as big as a 19" LCD screen (for reference). Soft, smooth surface. Lays flat. Doesn't move.

Cons: Make sure you have room for it on your desk. I have to position mine vertically.

Overall Review: There is no reason to buy a bigger mousepad. This thing is giant and works flawlessly. If you're looking for a new mousepad, this is the one you want.

Pros: Easily the best laptop mouse I've owned. Small, but still comfortable to hold. The laser tracking is quite impressive; the sensitivity falls somewhere between the medium and high DPI settings on my desktop's Logitech MX518. The nano receiver is so tiny that you can leave it plugged in on the go. Comes with 2xAA batteries. The package claims that battery life will last up to a year. It goes to sleep after a while in case you forget to turn it off.

Cons: It would be even better if this mouse had back/forward buttons.

Overall Review: I use this mouse for Photoshop editing and gaming. Previously I was concerned that response time would suffer on wireless, but I don't notice any lag whatsoever. The piano finish with orange/red trim perfectly matches my Gateway P-series laptop.

Pros: High resolution, great color/contrast/brightness, fast response time, and a sturdy base. Overall a really sweet monitor for the price.

Cons: For some reason various shades of gray don't display correctly on this monitor. Most people probably wouldn't see it, though. I do graphic art and web design, and noticed that certain images (usually grays) look a few shades too light.

Overall Review: I mostly use this screen for gaming and movie watching, and it looks very good. If you're into digital art you might want to avoid this one because of the problem with grays.
