Still On The Fence

Pros: Great performance specs, decent cost (as always from Newegg).

Cons: Even after 30 years in high tech - this one requires a lot of intense thought - much confusion on which version of the driver is most appropriate. Still not 100%, as it seems to have questionable performance so far (not tweaked to its best).

Overall Review: The 6800GT that it replaced seems to have had better performance with some applications and games

Nice Piece!!

BUFFALO LS-QVLE Diskless System LinkStation Pro Quad Network Storage
BUFFALO LS-QVLE Diskless System LinkStation Pro Quad Network Storage

Pros: Great pricing (Flash Deal special!!), great product. Theremay be newer and better performing options out there - but not this easy and cost effective to implement.

Cons: Not the best documentation

Overall Review: You can search the web or the manufacturer's site to get whatever help that you may need. Just remember to leave the ethernet unplugged until after the drives are initialized and the piece is fully up. Then it will be seen by the support access methods (direct app/web). Also, once your drives are in and the machine is fully up, press the function button to start the drive intialization process.

Super prodict so far!!

Pros: Very easy to work with - just take your time (it doesn't take long) and follow the directions. This kit comes complete with everything needed for getting the job done (unless you are starting with a fresh OS install).

Cons: Absolutely real no issues encountered.

Overall Review: The only difficult part was that my particular laptop only has single USB ports on either side, and the data transfer cable needs 2 ports (one data and both for power). The cable for the additional USB power was too short to reach the additional one in the laptop cooler that I used specifically to try to get aroud the issue. In the end I just put andother laptop next to the one I was working on and that worked just fine.

Nice - so far

HQRP New USA UK Laminated QWERTY Keyboard Stickers for All PC & Laptops with White Lettering on Black Background

Pros: Nicely made, heavy stock, very complete set of characters needed for my purposes. Glad these are available so I didn't have to replace the actual laptop keyboard hardware.

Cons: The stickers are a little small for the Samsung laptop keyboard I was updating (factory Scandanavian keyboard - changing for US English use).

Overall Review: I hope athat these will be durable. Shipping cost was on the high side at $5.95 for an envelope, considering that the NewEgg cost was only 15 cents for the actual product.

Impressive!

Netgear N900 Dual Band Gigabit Wireless Router with 3.5" Storage Bay (WNDR4700)

Pros: Internal drive and SD memory card support, consistent signal, superior range/coverage, simple setup, great performer overall!

Cons: Absolutely none so far.

Overall Review: I replaced a 4 year old super dependable router with this, and have not looked back at all. Configured via web in less than 10 minutes, dropped in a drive I previously prepared and took down a couple of file servers that were no longer necessary. I am pleased to say the least.
