Most Favorable Review
brother MFC-7340 Compact Monochrome Laser All-in-One Printer
brother MFC-7340 Compact Monochrome Laser All-in-One Printer

Pros: Has been running in a small office here for about a year or so now. Work load of probably ~30-40 pages a day, with a few scans thrown in( mostly used for copies and faxes). Still going strong, works like the day we set it up.

Cons: Has developed a slight occasional squeaking sound when pulling paper through. It may be the toner cartridge, it does not have any noticeable effect other than being a little annoying.

Perfect for my netwrok hardware

Pros: Size and form factor are great

Cons: Could use a bit more space between plugs and non-user replaceable battery is a big con

Overall Review: I have this wall-mounted below my network cabinet and it works great for keeping my Modem, Firewall, 2x WAPs, and small POE switch online when storms come through and cause some small brown outs. It is 5 stars but the fact the battery is non user replaceable I took one star off. NewEgg had it delivered a day early and the process was better than some other online retailers. Would recommend!

Great Bang For The Buck

Pros: Great build quality and performance. Very quiet even at full speed. Dropped my OC processor from 60*C at load to about 45*C most days.

Cons: Kind of a pain to set up, mostly if you decide to attach the fan to it. Once it is set up this point doesn't matter too much but something to keep in mind.

Overall Review: I used to only use more well known brands for heat sinks sine they are very important, but once you get past the install there is no reason to look else where!

Pros: Just works. Solid build with good heatsink. No reason to get any other DDR2 ram, just get this one now!

Cons: None, has been working fine for over a year.

Great so far

Pros: Love the format of the screen and the way you can switch between media. The touch pad works great for me, i find it to be refreshing from going around in circles with my ipod. Hands down the beast included headphones with any portable i have ever purchased.

Cons: The software had a pit of a learning curve to it but after a few hours i started to enjoy using it. It has better album info tool than my itunes had.

Overall Review: I had a 30gb video for about a year and a half and the screen back light went out on it. I am more than happy with this. I feel like i got more for my money than the same price on a 80gb ipod.

Cant be beat
