Good Case

SilverStone Sugo Series SG01-BW Black Aluminum Micro ATX Desktop Computer Case
SilverStone Sugo Series SG01-BW Black Aluminum Micro ATX Desktop Computer Case

Pros: Good airflow, sturdy, uses standard size power supply, overall well built.

Cons: No handle if you care about that kind of thing.

Overall Review: The instruction manual has hints about how to work in the cramped spaces. May get difficult if you install more than one optic drive and one hard drive. If you do then you better get a modular power supply or there will be no place for the wires to go.

Most Critical Review

Mediocre

Logitech Cordless Desktop LX 310 Laser
Logitech Cordless Desktop LX 310 Laser

Pros: Works OK. Inexpensive.

Cons: The actual range is much shorter than the advertised range. If you are more than 5 feet from the antenna then the mouse buttons to not click properly and the keyboard drops every other keystroke. Also you must turn off the mouse when you are not using it or you will go through batteries every 2 weeks.

Another Triumph

ASUS P5Q-EM LGA 775 Intel G45 HDMI Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
ASUS P5Q-EM LGA 775 Intel G45 HDMI Micro ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: Good board, easy to set-up, solid, has integrated HDMI, able to do surround sound, plugs into my HDTV through HDMI no problem.

Cons: Some people have had compatibility issues with their video cards. I use the integrated video so this has not been an issue for me. You should make sure that your video card is compatible with the G45 chipset before you buy this board. Otherwise good buy.
