Nice but not So Nice

HP Photosmart Premium Fax CQ521A Up to 34 ppm Black Print Speed 9600 x 2400 dpi Color Print Quality Ethernet (RJ-45) / USB / Wi-Fi Thermal Inkjet MFC / All-In-One Color Printer
HP Photosmart Premium Fax CQ521A Up to 34 ppm Black Print Speed 9600 x 2400 dpi Color Print Quality Ethernet (RJ-45) / USB / Wi-Fi Thermal Inkjet MFC / All-In-One Color Printer

Pros: Fast, prints well, not so big and bulky like my last All in ones, came with a nice big tote bag (printer was in it, helped in the aid of one person pulling it out of the box) as well as the power suplie bag. I like it, does its job, tested with my nikon d5000 and printed nice 4x6 photos of our nascar vaction, so 5 eggs

Cons: Only cons would be the install instructions, i've read online where there is some issues and i ran into them. Computer not seeing the printer, Firewall issues. Need to have more "Help" topics then just the wifi. nothing to take an egg from it, its HP problems and not Neweggs, but HP needs to stop just sending a itty-bitty manual and making us rely on there website for help as there isn't much.

Overall Review: All in all its a great printer, took me two installs to get it to show up, now i just have to figure out why when it goes to sleep mode (energy saver mode) i have to unplug my router to get it back on the network.

Most Critical Review

Not as I hoped

Turtle Beach Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 Ear Force Delta Limited Edition Programmable Wireless Headset
Turtle Beach Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 Ear Force Delta Limited Edition Programmable Wireless Headset

Pros: Turtle Beach. Well made (cosmetic) the nice designs pull from the game it self. Fit like a glove, and can't really tell they are on your head.

Cons: Ok,, Dont know if i just got a bad one out of the box but here we go... Static, major static... tried different locations of the recever, nothing, tried different digital cables nothing. Drops out when only 8ft away. Chat cable (xbox 360) i tuch the cable i get a high pitch noise (sounds like a train blowing its horn) static pops. So i tried the BT adaptor same effect. Tried a different chat cable, reproduced the same problem. I was happy as i have the PX21 W/Dss box and loved them only thing they are wired, so i got these to go wireless.. So will be getting ahold of Newegg as I called/emailed TB and haven't heard back and well for $300 you shouldn't have these issues.

Overall Review: Don't get me wrong Turtle Beach is a great company, I think i just got a bad head set, and at this price point, I shouldn't have gotten one.

Its a Case, nothing more nothing less

CM Storm Stryker - White Full Tower Gaming Computer Case with Handle and External 2.5" Drive Dock
CM Storm Stryker - White Full Tower Gaming Computer Case with Handle and External 2.5" Drive Dock

Pros: Its a nice and light case when it comes to case's. Features work well, tooless design, optional swap of the front fans from side facing to front facing is a nice. Upper and lower mounting points for a big block (2 120mm fan blocks) for LC design. fan control is another bounus as well as the power supply cable extenstion. biggest pro i have is that my Corsair H80 fits with out hitting the tall Dominator Plat ram.all in all 8/10.

Cons: This is where i have a problem. Says extened motherboard ready. Really? where? Case comes up short in that department. The rubber gromets are covered up by my Asus Rampage Extreme (RIVE),. thats about the only grip is that the case should of been 2inchs longer and about 1/4inch wider to fit the proper mounting for a mother board of that size. I had no issues with the Thermaltake Armor+ and really really miss that case, but no room for my H80 water cooling system witht he board and ram i was moving to, so i had to adapt to newer case but instead got a backwards case from CM. Am i happy, Meh, nothing i can do about it.

Overall Review: if it was bigger on the inside, as stated, the groments or cable pass threws wouldn't be an issue.

Its Air in a Can

Innovera Compressed Gas Duster, 10oz Can, 2/Pack
Innovera Compressed Gas Duster, 10oz Can, 2/Pack

Pros: Its compressed air in a can, for cleaning out your electronics, or in my case, computer fans/cpu fans, case fans.

Cons: no never ending supply.. need more cans!!

Overall Review: If my local store wasn't out, id have enough to do my project , but other than that, 2cans for the price of one, really a budget saver

Refurbed.. Really?

SAMSUNG Galaxy Note 10.1 Samsung Exynos 2GB Memory 16GB 10.1" Tablet PC, (A Grade Samsung Recertified) Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich)

Pros: I got the refurbised Note 10.1 to give it a try, and i'm just amazed. Now my wife and son want one. Android OS on a 10inch screen can't get any better. Other than that, you can't tell its a refurbed once its out of the box, its like new.

Cons: Only con, that i can say is , it didn't come with the replacement pen tips that you see in the other pictures.

Overall Review: Dont be worried about buying it Refurbed, I bit the bullet and love it.

Works

Western Digital Black WD7501AALS 750GB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: Works, out of the box just like any other WD drive i've own. I have two of these and so far after a year of use, still kicking

Cons: Wish they was a bit faster in the transfer department but it could just be Windows 7 giving me a low score.

Overall Review: I should of bought 4 instead of 2 ahha.
