Most Favorable Review

Good processor

AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ - Athlon 64 X2 Windsor Dual-Core 3.0 GHz Socket AM2 125W Processor - ADX6000CZBOX
AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ - Athlon 64 X2 Windsor Dual-Core 3.0 GHz Socket AM2 125W Processor - ADX6000CZBOX

Pros: Good processor. Very cheap for what you get. In Vista 64 bit loads fast. HUGE heatsink (see below) keeps temp below 38C. When running apps.

Cons: The AM2 socket where you clip on the heatsink IS NOT THE SAME SIZE AS HEATSINK. I needed to take off and hacksaw the 4 tops off to get to fit. That being said took 2 minutes to do. Unscrew the socket first ;)

Overall Review: I know everybody is not a complete techy on this site. It was a good buy just read the cons. Worked in Vista 64 bit no prob. 5.4 rating. Sorry no overclock here.

Most Critical Review

ehhh

19" 720p LCD HDTV
19" 720p LCD HDTV

Pros: Good price. HDMI works. For price is significantly cheaper then most others.

Cons: Tuner is not to the same standard as the rest of my HD TV's (over air). I used multiple antennas (that work) and TV's in same location and do not get the same reception. Really annoying switch between HDTV and air tv. You need to switch (with remote) between DTV and air tv.

Overall Review: I am using this for multiple things. HDTV (over air)and Computer monitor (HDMI). You NEED to use their remote. The TV would not phyiscally let me switch between HDMI and DTV/TV. I actually read the manual. In all honesty would make a good dorm computer monitor/computer screen. The manual switch between TV and DTV IS RELLY annoying (my other TV's do not have this problem).

Works like a charm

Pros: Worked for my business. Would probabl work for a home enviroment as well. Good software. If you need more then one this is BY FAr the cheapest way.

Cons: All the licenses start the MINUTE one is activated.

loved it

Pros: Dad (Low/moderate tech ability) loved it. It was a good price point.

Cons: It was a little small. Make sure you realize the size you are getting. The thing kind of depends on the remote. The remote is probably going to get lost in 3 months.

Overall Review: How hard would it be to have a set of controls on the back?

Good player

SanDisk Sansa Clip 1.0" Black 2GB MP3 Player
SanDisk Sansa Clip 1.0" Black 2GB MP3 Player

Pros: Worked right out of the box. You need the cable (this is a recert). I had the cable. It is the same one people usually have for cameras. Worked like a dream with my media center.

Cons: I live about 40 miles away from a metro area. The antenna only gets about 1/2 the stations my car gets. Inside is worse. Not that that is what bought it for though.

Overall Review: If you live near the radio stations you should be fine. If you live in the middle of nowhere (or anywhere near there) don't expect to use the radio.

Worked fine
