Pros: Power. For the price, this thing is pretty much unbeatable. No task I threw at this thing disappointed me. I have not yet once actually heard it make any sound whatsoever, the speakers were surprisingly hi fidelity, and sounded pretty crisp with some casual gaming. The preinstalled operating system is also surprisingly lightweight, especially considering this is an HP machine. I was originally planning to put 7 on straight away, but decided I was content enough with XP as provided to just keep using it for now.

Cons: Mostly my issue is with the screen. I've never owned a netbook before, so I don't know if this is something common to all netbooks but the viewing angle is pretty smelly. Shifting just 6 inches right or left causes contrast issues, and the only way to ensure a completely uniform picture is to keep the computer at least an arm's length away. Also worth noting is the lack of keyboard capslock/scroll lock indicators, and the fact that the touchpad buttons run right up to the edge of the machine, so be careful if propping this up on your lap in bed or something. Also, the headphone and microphone jacks are combined, and the computer doesn't come with a splitter to plug in traditional headsets, though if you plug in headphones, they'll work fine.

Overall Review: Just thought I'd post some vague performance info: This thing definitely has no problems with HD video... I played a 720p copy of "Che" without a hiccup. Fullscreen flash is indeed a no-no, but regular embedded flash videos (including youtube "HD") work great. Older games like Deus Ex and UT, Starcraft and Diablo II run flawlessly, if you're up for some nostalgia, and some newer games like Fable and World of Warcraft produced some pretty surprising results. Perfectly playable in both cases. Counter Strike Source on lowest settings with default drivers seemed to be pretty map-dependent, some averaging 60fps (perfectly fine), others 15 fps (unplayable). EVE Online was another surprise, ran excellently with most settings on high. I've yet to try anything more recent because the above mentioned are all I really see myself killing time with, so for me, this is one excellent buy. I highly recommend this product from my experience with it thus far.

Overall Review: they simply don't work, the blue wires fail to crimp every time.

Overall Review: I don't have a drive fast enough to test this enclosure's limits, which means it was more than enough for all my needs, and I have no complaints so far, it just works. No regrets taking a chance on this brand.

Overall Review: For about the same price as the Pentium G3220 I bought 8 years ago, I now have almost the nicest processor compatible with the same motherboard. The seller actually even sent me a 4790 instead of a 4770. Bonus!

Overall Review: it works

Pros: super convenient having a touchpad on my couch keyboard

Cons: the function keys are mapped to 'extra' functions like media keys, and the layout of the keyboard seems unnecessarily cramped. I'd be happier if it was a K360 with a touchpad instead of a numpad, but what can you do?

Overall Review: handy to have, not the easiest to use
