Most Favorable Review

Great Customer Service

JUST PC JPC-P4DF450C-BLUE 450 W ATX 2.03 Power Supply
JUST PC JPC-P4DF450C-BLUE 450 W ATX 2.03 Power Supply

Pros: Nice looking PSU Dual Fans SATA power Customer Service

Cons: Limited number of 4-Pin connectors (4) Not Dual Rail

Overall Review: Very nice PSU for value machines. My only complaint is there are only 4 four-pin connectors, but also having SATA power connector was a plus. No, this PSU is not noiseless, but it is no louder than other PSU's. The first one of these I received kept dropping the 12V line to below 6V, I contacted JustPC customer service directly and they swapped it out promptly. I could not be more pleased with their customer service. They had a good working unit out to me on the next FedEX truck (after the required documentation had been faxed to them). A+ to them on that.

Decent Case

Broadway Com Corp 204-4HA-S Silver Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case 450W Power Supply
Broadway Com Corp 204-4HA-S Silver Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case 450W Power Supply

Pros: Look nice Lots of Room

Cons: Flimsy

Overall Review: Well, you get what you pay for. This is a nice looking case and very roomy inside, but not as sturdy as other cases in this price range can be (Cough *Apex PC-115* Cough). It is a decent case for the money, but don't have high expectations. Throw out the PSU and get a decent Rosewill !@V Dual Rail, it'll save you some headaches if you do.

Great Monitor for a Great Price

Acer X233Hbid Black 23" 5ms HDMI Full 1080P Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 40000:1 (ACM)
Acer X233Hbid Black 23" 5ms HDMI Full 1080P Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 40000:1 (ACM)

Pros: Price, contrast, size and value for money, quick enough to game, recommend for everyone to pick one up.

Cons: it is not 16:10 it is 16:9. That's it

Overall Review: JRZ87 - The fact that nothing is displayed on HDMI until the OS boots is a function of the BIOS. The BIOS doesn't output to HDMI, only DVI or VGA, that is why you can't access your setup via HDMI.

Can't even get it to install

X-Plane 9.0 PC Game
X-Plane 9.0 PC Game

Pros: Nice packaging

Cons: I didn't purchase at the Egg, but I did purchase this game. I can't even get it to install under Vista or XP. I keep getting file errors every time I try to install the simulator no matter which computer I try. Money thrown away because this doesn't even work out of the box.

Overall Review: If you want a flight sim, try one of the many others on the market as this one won't even install!

Very Good LCD TV

32" 720p LCD HDTV
32" 720p LCD HDTV

Pros: Very nice picture and has 1600:1 contrast ratio. VGA input so you can use an a computer monitor if needed. QAM tuner to get unscrambled digital channels.

Cons: Blacks are not the deepest, but then again the price point is nice. Only 1 HDMI port.

Overall Review: This is a very good HDTV and seems to be quality built. I have been pleased with it for the last 6 months. If I had a chance to purchase it again over other Tier 2 products at the same price (Vizio, Westinghouse, etc) I would in a heartbeat. Very pleased.

Very Good 720p Television

37" 720p LCD HDTV
37" 720p LCD HDTV

Pros: It lists 1 HDMI, but the 237-T12 has two HDMI inputs 1600:1 Contrast Accepts 1080p input (scales it to native) NTSC/ATSC/QAM Tuners Very good looking screen

Cons: Panel is deeper than most other flat panels (5 inches deep)

Overall Review: Olevia gets their parts from LG and Sharp, the panel on my TV was manufactured by LG. It has a beautiful picture (due to the higher contrast on this lower cost model) and was a value to buy. Don't worry about 1080p vs 720p, all the broadcasts are 720p or 1080i, you only need 1080p for consoles, Blu-Ray and HD-DVD. This TV accepts 1080p input and scales it to the native TV resolution.
