Awesome

Pros: I love the integrated handle. This case feels very solid and has no sharp edges, good quality assembly. Having the front panel on top works better for me also, with the USB, headphone jack, and Esata located there. The hard drive cage is turned sideways to give you more room for today's larger video cards, and the HD rail system is quick and easy, snap the rails on and slide them in, definitely 5 star. The paint feels like a quality powdercoat inside and out. Many options for managing your cables too. Most of the wiring is already tucked into place. Fans are quiet and keep your hardware cool, plenty of room to add another large fan in the front under the optical drives. Also can add two more 120mm fans to the side window if desired. Tool free assembly works great on your optical drives, very solid. Mesh filter in the front bezel should work good like in previous CM models.
Cons: Would be nicer if there was more room behind the MB tray for the PS wires. With the prewired front control panel and fan wires running behind the MB, it is hard to fit the large main power cable. Screwless design is kind of flimsy on the video card or pci cards, I feel much more secure putting in a screw to hold them solid.
Overall Review: Imagine my surprise when I start my swap (Upgrading from a Coolermaster Centurion 5 CAC-T05) that they are exactly the same chassis! It is redesigned on the inside with PS on bottom now and HD cage turned sideways. The dimensions listed made me believe I was getting a slightly larger case than the Centurion. Don't get me wrong, this case is built different on the inside, with many improvements. Also the side panels are redesigned too, as is the front panel. I really liked my Centurion, but after several trouble free years I was ready for something a little different. The cons aren't anything you can't work around, especially the clamping of the pci cards because there is still a place for a screw. This case still has all the room I need with more aggressive styling and many improvements to a very solid case.
Great Game, but no luck with Vista 64

Pros: One of my all time favorite games! Probably the longest FPS I ever played. Worth playing through multiple times. Tons of multiplayer maps out there. Well worth 10 bucks.
Cons: Could not get to install on Vista Ultimate 64. No 64 bit *exe on disk. I bought this so my kids could play in the same server online, already have another copy loaded on separate pc. Free shipping didn't work for my zipcode. I gave it the 1 egg because of the no install issue, game is a 5 egg if it installs.
Overall Review: The 5 CD version I already owned loaded just fine on Vista Ultimate 64. So I installed it, and then used the product key from the new DVD version to go online. Shouldn't have had to do this!!
Great Mouse

Pros: Good feel, nice placement of buttons. On the fly adjustment, perfect for gaming, and then everything else too.
Cons: Wasn't free?
Overall Review: I have had my 1st MX518 since 12-07 and it still works like new, so when I needed a second mouse for the kids PC it was a no brainer.
Does not fit Ipod Touch

Pros: Might work good on the Iphone, but this doesn't fit the Ipod Touch.
Cons: Too long for Ipod Touch. Why does product description say it fits Ipod Touch?
Overall Review: I want my money back..............
Just buy it!

Pros: Great picture, great price, nice remote, looks awesome, lots of inputs, comes with cables to hook it up, 1920 x 1200 resolution. I was used to a 19" fullscreen and compared to that this 24" is huge. Stand has all the adjustments I need. Easy setup, 5 minutes and I had it up and working.
Cons: Some backlight bleed at the very bottom of the frame. Also, inside edge of frame reflects whatever is on the screen. Not a big deal but the inside edge should have a matte finish.
Overall Review: No dead pixels. Screen is very bright by default, I had to go in the settings to dim it down some. Why did I wait so long to buy this?

Pros: Moves a lot of air, Quiet
Cons: Can't hook up to my CM Scout's case LED power button. This fan has 3 wires, and the stock fans in my Scout case have 4.
Overall Review: Why don't they sell the fans that come stock in the case?
