Good RAM

Pros: Its cheap and has a lifetime warranty. It works well for any laptop that accepts DDR PC2700 SODIMM RAM. It does run slightly cooler than its Kingston counterpart.
Cons: none
As expected

Pros: Its a wonderful way of pulling data cost effectively from PC's without having to purchase expensive write-blockers to Forensically Examine Drives that are SATA.
Cons: None.
MCE or Vista; A Must!

Pros: This tuner is far superior to the Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-1800 and the Avermedia AverTV Combo PCI-E with ClearQAM (256) and slightly better with analog TV. Over the last month I have tried all 3, and 2 brands of the 650Pro, VisionTek and MSI. For Vista Premium and Ultimate users, research Fiji, it is a MUST for HDTV channels in Media Center. Overall this card is excellent.
Cons: The remote doesn't work in WinXPMCE. Also, without Fiji, ClearQAM only works with ATI Cinema in Vista. Media Center is far superior to ATI Cinema.
Overall Review: If price is of concern, get this version over the MSI; The only sacrafices you make are the antenna and the better remote.

Overall this card is excellent and has the best remote of all the cards.
Cons: The remote doesn't work in WinXPMCE. Also, without Fiji, ClearQAM only works with PowerCinema in Vista. Media Center is far superior to PowerCinema.
Overall Review: For a little extra over the VisionTek version, the MSI is the best of the entire group.
Good TV

Pros: I put this in an older Gateway machine that only had PCI slots available for use. It works well and had decent video quality for SDTV.
Cons: None.
Solid Drive

Pros: This Drive does exactly what it is supposed to do and well. It is a drive that replaced another 80Gb drive in a Dell Dimension 4500 series machine which would not support a drive over this size.
Cons: None
Overall Review: This comes with a 3 year warranty, it is cheap and runs fast.
