TOSHIBA Satellite 17.0" Intel Core Duo T2050 1GB Memory DDR2 533 Windows XP Media Center PSPA0U-1W2036

Pros: This laptop is crisp , decent speed . My wife keeps saying this laptop is so nice ,why did they sell this latop so cheap? The screen is fantastic,very vivid display, NO distortion for a wide screen .This duo core 1.66 is really fast .This machine is about four times faster than the c640 we upgraded from . This laptop is not a super gaming machine , but it still is a very respectable work horse . Word ,Excel , Publiser all pop open at a click , plays my wife's games very nicely .I would encourage anybody looking for a very stable machine to look no further .Very smooth running!!!!! BUY IT NOW , YOU WILL NOT BE DISPLEASED.

Cons: one half of one dead pixel

Overall Review: would definitely buy another if the need should arise

Team Supreme 32GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive (Titanium / Silver) TG032GU100S

Pros: Price and capacity

Cons: Slow ,I have a Patriot Exporter as well. It takes the team supreme 9 seconds to write 117megs vs the Patriot which takes 3 seconds for 117 megs.

Overall Review: Comes with fat32 , windows vista ultimate could not format it to ntfs , had to use acronis partition manager to format it to ntfs . I will not buy a 2nd one...

Back To Vista

Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit 1-Pack for System Builders
Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit 1-Pack for System Builders

Pros: About the only thing i like is the taskbar when running multiple tabs in explorer , logon to networks is a little better,Maybe a few seconds faster than vista on startup ,but it is not fast enough to be thrilled about it ,This windows 7 is nothing to write home about or justify an upgrade from vista or xp .

Cons: will not run older games and programs(roxio creator2009), no quick launch ,No windows mail program , aero isn't very good compared to Vista , icons in control panel (expanded) can only be large or small ,I like them a little larger , large is medium small for icons , does not have dream scenes , will not let you install your drivers (components)wants to use windows 7 default drivers , will not run Acronis( unless you upgrade) ,ETC,ETC , I can not be fair and recommend this os to my customers ,The bottom line is , I just do not like windows 7!!

Overall Review: I like Vista Ultimate a whole lot better than windows 7 ultimate , Windows7 is a washed up version of vista , but the baste system is XP upgraded , My system is x58 sli evga , 6 gigs 3 channel memory ,2 gtx 295 in sli , wd 300 gig raptor ,3 liteon dvd/cd rw ,, It does not warrant an upgrade from xp or vista , I am putting Vista back on my computer , if you buy the ultimate of some product , then you would expect it to be loaded with features , as i've stated earlier , Windows 7 is a washed up version of Vista , As my preference for me is I do not like windows 7 at all , very disappointed , a real waste of money , but I Had to buy it and learn it as I am a tech ,Cooler master v8 ,thermaltake armor full tower, 7 assorted wd drives 750gigs or better ,Back to Vista or xp pro , they are better than this highly acclamined Os which is supposed to be so better, If you like a plain os, then go for it, better yet keep your xp installed !!!!I could go on and on, but I've said enough !!!!!!

Very Durable

Patriot Xporter XT Boost 32GB Flash Drive (USB2.0 Portable) PEF32GUSB
Patriot Xporter XT Boost 32GB Flash Drive (USB2.0 Portable) PEF32GUSB

Pros: Extremely well made , Fast read and write speeds . I had this guy plugged into a dell with the bottom case usb outlets . I forgot I had plugged it in , and I picked up the back of the computer to make sure all cables were attached which bent the head about a 30 degrees . I thought this was it for this drive , but I took my needlenose and worked it back into shape until I could plug it in , Still works like a charm , I then bought another which works great also .

Cons: The guy below said he broke his and then took it apart. I just want to say if you broke it , What the heck were you doing????working on your car ,cross country ski accident, etc? To break this drive would require an extreme event , it just does not fall apart!!!!!

Overall Review: I highly recommend this drive , as I have tried several others and this one is by far the most reliable , durable usb drive I have used .Fast shipping by newegg ,, THANKS

Bought Three

HP Officejet Pro L7780 C8192A Up to 35 ppm Black Print Speed 4800 x 1200 dpi Color Print Quality Ethernet (RJ-45) / USB / Wi-Fi InkJet MFC / All-In-One Color Printer

Pros: I have bought three of these for different offices and all have performed as described. Works great in Vista and xp . They are twice as much at best b*y .Great price. For $250 , how can you go wrong?One year warranty !! Scan from scanner to any workstation . It prints as fast or faster than my Samsung laser (ml2551n) It coallates documents and the color is very good. I printed 4*6 photos at about 20-25 seconds a print .My hp6100 would take 5-9 minutes to print photos.The photo quality is outstanding , seems to be better than your local photo shop. THE FAX IS EXCELLENT AS WELL . Fast Shipping , THANKS NEWEGG!!!

Cons: People wanting this printer to perform like a $2500.00 printer .

Overall Review: I had decided at one time I was through with hp and bought the brother all in one , it lasted a hot two weeks and the print quality was very bland ,it lacked clarity. I went right back to Hp . In reference to previous reviews , You can buy a lemmon anywhere,thats a fact in this world today . I've had bad processors , bad motherboards , bad dvd writers, bad memory, bad etc , but I keep rocking along , may not be the best , but it is alot better than the competion!!!,but overall this printer rocks!!!
