Great device

Pros: Makes great quality recordings of speaker phone conversations by just placing it on the desk , far superior to tape. Easy to download to computer , usb ,and burn audio CD with CD burning software. Good battery life, about 8 hrs. on AAA.Easy to operate .Misses nothing.
Cons: None really.
Overall Review: I'm waiting for a deal so I can get some more!CD burning software not included,I used my own, but windows media player should do the job although I didn't use it.I find whatever length of recording on recorder yields the same on Cd, 80 Min.being the max for me.USB 2 transfers that size file in seconds .Just stopping it and starting will create a new file so you can control the lengths of files that way.
Missing parts

Pros: Was on sale
Cons: Shipped missing vertical straps
Overall Review: Not worth the time or money to send back.Horizontal piece has level which I could use for something.
Good drive so far

Pros: Works great ,seems seems speedy enough. Put it my desktop because it was cheep and I needed something to diagnose my system then I eventually will clone my laptop to it.
Cons: none
Overall Review: great little drive , running XP pro
Great little router

Pros: Price ,size ,range, Covers my house upstairs , down in the basement .I get a good signal out by the mailbox 150' outside the house . too cold to play around with that Weaker inside the house next door,125' ,2 bars , still surfs . I have the router on a bookshelf in a back room so I'm not trying for optimum broadcast signal out the house. Has a firewall . Newegg superfast
Cons: Can't think of any, kicked me off when messing with pass words a couple of times but got back on easy enough .
Overall Review: This router comes with all the bells and whistles, many of which I could care less about. I use it to add wireless to my hardwired system. I just ran a straight cat5 to a lan port on my wired router to the wan port on the ENHWI-2AN3 . Then I ran a straight cat5 from one of the ENHWI-2AN3 lans to my laptop and used it to configure the router. computers upstream can't see the ENHWI-2AN3 when set up like this so I went downstream . I ignored the DCHP ,some say disable it I just skipped it , I cloned the Mac number by accident may or may not matter . Then bam the ssid popped up hooked up and I was in business.Default ssid in manual. Set my wpa2 password and changed the ssid .This is all menu driven accessed from firefox ,just type in http://1xx.xxx.x.x , see manual for the address.20 min job.
Great case

Pros: Light, lots of room , like the lights , don't bother you after a short while. Did I say lots of room ? Side case fan lights up interior and has it's own plug, does not use header off motherboard so that's one more for another fan.Off/ on button is great , case sides both come off, it's just right.You just undo the back lugs , ouch the side straight back bout 1/2 " then pull toward you and it's off .
Cons: Not really big ones. Some small cracks around the screw holes of the clear plastic , but it's clear plastic ,it cracks .Not noticeable , not a deal killer by any means and well worth the view into the box. Also the power supply while very good has only one Sata power connector . The rest are the old style molex so get some power adapters as needed. I found the upper right corner of the sheet metal you screw the motherboard too flexed more than I liked. Probably fine , but I stiffened it a bit . I checked some old cases and they all had flex there . I get obsessive.
Overall Review: It's a relief to get a case that's half the weight of a normal case . It may not take a hit like an old box but it is a pleasure to work on and move about .The power supply that came with mine is a Logisys PS40D that's marked total power 330w, Max 480w. 20/24 Serial ATA .I used it to fix a Dell Dimension that had a 500w and it worked great. Bought a Rosewell with light because I didn't know what to expect in a power supply with the case.I put in an ASUS M4A785TD -M EVO motherboard, built it outside the case , put the case on it's side and just laid it in , tons of room. I plan to get another of these .
Great processor

Pros: Installs easily, heat sink is a snap , unlike some , runs cool to the touch at 38 c with stock heat sink ,which isn't all that small ,fan and compound . Put it in an ASUS EV0 u atx board with 2 gig ram. It is very snappy ,no need to overclock ,posted a 2700 CPU passmark which is average.Loaded XP and service packs quickly.Runs Open Office very well. Not much load on cores, handles graphics beautifully .Hulu plays without a hitch .
Cons: None with processor , as advertised, more than adequate for my needs.
Overall Review: Can be overclocked via system speed but I have no need . Bought this to carry me to the six core age and hopefully my rig will accommodate . The 630 is looking like a better deal with a higher multiplier setting for $12.00 more. Maybe the 620 should be a little cheaper. however close test results mean little in the real world , a few seconds here and there . The 620 4 cores buries my old p3 and p4's which fell victim to the bloatware out there. Surfing is once again super quick .
