Pros: This drive is awesome. True it is a litlle louder than the stock 5400 rpm drive but its much faster and i get relatively the same amount of battery life out of the laptop that i used to. currently the drive is in a Acer Aspire 9300 and the performance difference was definitely noticeable. I ran vista on this laptop for a month or so and i thought it was going to kill my HDD with all the thrashing it was doing. XP also thrashes the HDD but not nearly as much, i can actually sleep with this laptop running at the head of my bed. right now it serves as my night time mp3 player and alarm clock.

Cons: none really, and for those of you who think its too loud, your overreacting to a relatively small problem. its a little louder than your stock 5400 rpm but ten times faster. The HDD only gets warm when lots of work is being done(ie. gaming, video rendering, folding, etc.) other than doing that you should be fine and not notice any extreme heats issues that other people complain about. The price is a bit on the high side but having the space is definitely worth money.

Overall Review: If you plan on running vista be prepared to be up all night listening to the HDD thrash and thrash and thrash. At least that was my exp with vista. i have since gone back to XP and have not had any problems with this HDD. If you store all your business work on your laptop make sure to backup to an external HDD at least once a week or more often. HDD's are funny entities some live a long time and some don't.

Pros: Over the years i have gone though many keyboards and this is truly the first one that has really impressed me, not only with functionality but versatility as well. The keys are MX Blue, may not be as good for gaming but they will serve well and give your fingers a rest from slamming membrane switches. most of the time i bought el-cheapo keyboards form various venders and hated almost every single one. i've tried expensive so called gaming keyboards that have truly disappointed me. this is the first keyboard in a long time that has actually been nice to own and game with. This would be considered an entry level keyboard for its price range. At first you wont notice much difference but after a while you wont be able to stand using membrane keyboards. the pressure needed to actuate these mech keys is about 5 time less and your finger tips will love you for them.

Cons: I did not buy it form newegg. i will say that the rear feet are a bit cheap and do snap out easily but just go to you local computer shop and buy some stick on soft rubber feet and you will solve that issue. other than that it is a good sturdy keyboard that will serve many years with out issue, and is still a decent price to work with.

Overall Review: the audio ports and usb ports are nice to have but i seldom use them. The board does weigh about 3.5 lbs and for the most part does not move. some people say they don't like the tickey sound of the old mechanical but i find it quite soothing, alot like a white noise generator. This is a great all around keyboard and have introduced it to all of my friends and they defiantly like the fell and weight. If at all possible Use one the PS2 port to utilize true n-key rollover. you will also find typing up school papers is alot easier than on membrane keys and you fingers wont be tired after the paper is done. Even if you are a slow typer you will notice a definite improvement in your speed. the other nice thing is that the windows keys are small and not easily hit, especially during heavy gaming.

Pros: i Have owned these for well over 2 years almost 3 now and they are still going strong. the sound is quite exceptional for them being so cheap. they are perfect if you just want good quality sound for music or light gaming. this speaker system has now moved through three different houses and across several states, it still sounds great. they have held up well and i would definitely buy a another set to keep in a bedroom for an mp3 player, ipod or stereo alarm clock.

Cons: There are a couple of cons but none that aren't worth putting up for. The first con is that the satellite speakers are directly connected, i would have preferred to have extension ability but o well. Second the plastic does seem a little flimsy, they could have used a thicker molding process.

Overall Review: To the video reviewer down below: I don't know what you were thinking when you bought these speakers but they are meant for average computer illiterate person who just wants some sound for there music files and light games. These are not Professional speakers at all, there just home desktop speakers and only having two connections really helps to simplify hooking them up any computer. As far as the little green connector goes it just plugs into the sound card for analog sound. these are not digital speakers.

Pros: bought this board to rebuild my friends pc that i killed on him, and it has very nice features built into it. before my friends comp was running 3.0e presscott but it was bottle-necking with ddr memory and an nvidia 6800 agp card. the system preformed okay but it was quite sad when it came to running any type of game. i had a spare 8800GT vid card and some ddr2 memory that i wasn't using so for the low price of this board i knew it would be a good upgrade for him. the computer is surprisingly fast and runs almost every game we play and now we can log into each other on steam and fight in our favorite games.

Cons: the only con i have about this board is the sata ports did not want to support drives over 128Gb and my friend had a 250Gb drive that he uses for backup. i thought by this time the board would not have a problem like this so thats why i rated it down one egg. hopefully a bios update will fix this issue in the future.

Overall Review: all in all if you have an older system and want it to scream, this is a good board that u can use to build up your system and upgrade to get u through the next few years.

Pros: This is by far one of the best cheap p4 cpu coolers i have bought and used. i bought this to use on my friends computer i was rebuilding this last Christmas. initial tests on a P4 Presscott were quite impressive idle was around 19-20C at idle and i about 30 when under full load. he has been running it for a couple weeks now and its been quite impressive at how well this cooler work.

Cons: The fan is loud but thats bc its running at 4000rpm. It was a little hard at first to mount this on the board until i took a closer look at how it was constructed. the fan unit utilizes some pretty strong springs so a considerable force was needed to snap it down. the best way to mount this unit is to have the board out and sitting on a flat surface so as to minimize bending the board and possibly cracking the cpu slot on the MB.

Overall Review: Where was thing a few years ago. this is the 4th cooler i have used on my friends comp over the last 3 years and its the only one that i would truly recommend to anyone who has an aging socket 478 board.

Pros: I have been using this stuff for a couple of years now ever since i found it at my favorite computer store. my bottle of remover is starting to run low again so i will be buying a few of these sets on my next order. I build and rebuild several computers every year, and this stuff makes taking that thermal paste off easier than ever, and works especially well on those shoddy thermal pads intel like to stick on their Undersized and pitiful heat sinks.

Cons: none.

Overall Review: just put 2-3 drops on the on the thermal paste, let soak in and wipe off with paper towel. repeat this step 2-3 times depending on how much paste is on your processer and your good to go. just remember to purify the surface once done. I wish they made 120ml bottles of each of these.
