Most Favorable Review

Dang good color printer.

Canon PIXMA G3200 Wireless MegaTank All-In-One Printer
Canon PIXMA G3200 Wireless MegaTank All-In-One Printer

Pros: Ink lasts forever.

Cons: Is incapable of fabricating gold bars from bits of string.

Overall Review: Very satisfied with the overall quality of the prints. The ability to see the remaining ink levels from the actual ink tanks is, quite frankly, awesome.

Upgrade from 16GB

CORSAIR Vengeance 32GB (4 x 8GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model CMZ32GX3M4X1600C10
CORSAIR Vengeance 32GB (4 x 8GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model CMZ32GX3M4X1600C10

Pros: More memory available for Chrome...lol.

Cons: None so far (approx. 1 month)

Overall Review: Definite improvement in responsiveness of applications.

Awesome little fan

ARCTIC Breeze Mobile USB-Powered 92mm Portable Fan, Portable Cooling Solution, Quiet Fan - White
ARCTIC Breeze Mobile USB-Powered 92mm Portable Fan, Portable Cooling Solution, Quiet Fan - White

Pros: Moves quite a bit of air and is almost dead silent.

Cons: Since the blades aren't enclosed in anything adjusting it is a little annoying, but it is an easy trade-off for the performance.

Overall Review: Using it to cool some block erupters and a raspberry pi.

Love this case

Corsair Carbide Series 200R Black Steel / Plastic Compact ATX Mid Tower Case
Corsair Carbide Series 200R Black Steel / Plastic Compact ATX Mid Tower Case

Pros: Tool-less drive install, cable organization is easy, re-usable expansion port covers, lots of opportunity for case fans (comes with two 120mm fans!)

Cons: One of the stand-offs doesn't have a corresponding hole on the motherboard. I'm thinking this is an issue with the design of the board and it's there for support in any case.

Overall Review: Slick looking and super functional case, especially for the price. Very happy with this purchase.

again vantec comes through

Vantec NexStar MX Dual 3.5" SATA to USB 2.0 & eSATA External Hard Drive Enclosure with JBOD/RAID 0/1 - Model NST-400MX-SR
Vantec NexStar MX Dual 3.5" SATA to USB 2.0 & eSATA External Hard Drive Enclosure with JBOD/RAID 0/1 - Model NST-400MX-SR

Pros: The enclosure rocks. The first one i ordered died; it wouldn't spin up the drives or be recognized in Windows. Contacted Vantec and they RMA'd it without any hassle. Sent it off, they had it for a week and sent back a brand new unit. Very satisfied.

Cons: The first one I ordered died and it doesn't have breakfast ready for me in the morning...

Overall Review: I usually don't eat breakfast anyway.

Good Drive

SAMSUNG Spinpoint M7 HM500JI 500GB 5400 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 2.5" Internal Notebook Hard Drive Bare Drive
SAMSUNG Spinpoint M7 HM500JI 500GB 5400 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 2.5" Internal Notebook Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: Big capacity for a 2.5", although not the largest. For the price I paid it's a steal in my opinion.

Cons: none yet (still spinning along)

Overall Review: I write this review about a month and a half after receiving it.
