Most Favorable Review

Great Webcam!

Logitech HD Webcam C525, Portable HD 720p Video Calling with Autofocus
Logitech HD Webcam C525, Portable HD 720p Video Calling with Autofocus

Pros: Easy and quick installation. Image quality is overall decent and audio clarity is satisfactory. The fold-and-go and the plus-swivel design make it very easy to pack and go. Extremely easy to use... my 5 year old nephew can use it. Great first webcam for almost 1/2 off the regular price.

Cons: Video calling is not always available in HD 720p. No H.264 hardware compression technology. Autofocus is slow at times.

Overall Review: Image quality is overall decent because it isn't equipped with Carl Zeiss optics. The lens on the C525 is plastic. Yes, yes, yes... I know... it's 2014... and this is my first webcam.

Great CFL Lamp Replacement!

52PCS LED Desk Lamp 5 Color x5 Dimable Level Touch USB Chargeable Reading Eye-protect with timer Table lamp Night Light
52PCS LED Desk Lamp 5 Color x5 Dimable Level Touch USB Chargeable Reading Eye-protect with timer Table lamp Night Light

Pros: Long aluminum alloy neck & headlamp - perfect for flexible angle placement, particularly over laptops. Touch-sensitive controls for brightness, color temperature, & sleep function and power - no noisy toggle switches that wake up your roommates at night. Long strip of LED diodes provides greater illuminated surface area. Bonus: built-in Li-ion/Li-polymer battery (just an assumption because my model powers on without being plugged into the AC outlet) inside the base that powers the lamp when you're away for the AC power outlet.

Cons: You need one (1) AC-to-USB power brick, typically comes with your Android mobile phone, to power (2 - 3A) this lamp!!! The 3A AC-to-USB power brick is better. This unit is NOT equipped with the mentioned power brick. In other words, this manufacturer does NOT use a simple or generic AC power adapter. A USB 2.0 (micro USB to A) data cable is included by the manufacturer.

Overall Review: What happens when the Li-ion/Li-polymer battery no longer holds a charge? Will this lamp continues to work being plugged into the wall outlet long after the battery dies? I have no idea as my two newly purchased units are brand new. 😬 The seller is excellent in shipping these units out to me to the USA - 2 weeks. The units I received are exactly as described in the product listing. I love the crisp, clean, and white aluminum alloy look on my desk - no more buzzing or humming noise like my old CFL lamps. Thank you Smart Life Marketplace for these great LED lamps!

Simply the Best!

XTRAC PADS Ripper Mouse Pad
XTRAC PADS Ripper Mouse Pad

Pros: Extremely silky and smooth; large surface area. Rubber sure grip back ensures the pad remains stationary for hours of immersive game play or work. Very smooth contact between the mouse's contact points (its feet) and the pad's near frictionless surface. This pad simply rolls up to transport and cleans easily in a bucket with water & simple soap.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: X-Trac Ripper works very well with my Logitech M510 and G9 laser wireless mice.

Premium Standard for Quality!

CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model TWIN2X2048-6400
CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model TWIN2X2048-6400

Pros: I purchased these RAM to upgrade my father's aging pc. They are still working after nearly 7 years. The installation was quick and easy. They work as designed and specified. Corsair RAM is the premium standard of quality!

Cons: None.

Overall Review: These modules made a big difference in my father's pc performance from 1GB to the upgraded 3GB.

Wonderful Thermal Compound!

Arctic Silver 5 High-Density Polysynthetic Silver Thermal Compound AS5-3.5G
Arctic Silver 5 High-Density Polysynthetic Silver Thermal Compound AS5-3.5G

Pros: Wonderful thermal compound! The thermal compound works better than I'd expected with my CoolerMaster Hyper 212 cooler w/the 120mm fan. Without the use of water cooling technology, this compound and the CoolerMaster cooler permitted me to overclocked my CPU by 20% with solid stability. Grab some!

Cons: None. However, 3.5 grams is tiny.

Overall Review: This compound still works after 5 years. Use only the amount as directed. Applying more than directed will cause overflow onto the circuits and capacitors causing undue overheating to your motherboard.

Spectacular X48 Board!

ASUS P5E3 PREMIUM/WIFI-AP @n LGA 775 Intel X48 ATX Intel Motherboard
ASUS P5E3 PREMIUM/WIFI-AP @n LGA 775 Intel X48 ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: Lets face it, there are too many features to mention. Despite of all the initial negative outcries from moders/system builders, my board did not presented me with any problems. The initial BIOS 03XX that came with the board did cause a few occasions where the system crashed under Vista Ultimate X64 w/SP1. Moreover, the BIOS did not recognized my Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650 CPU and the temp reading was off the chart. After having updated BIOS 0505 using a USB flash drive, everything was in ordered in my brand new system. Tip: Before you boot up the very first time, save an unzipped BIOS 0505 or BIOS 0605 on a handy USB flash drive. Then during the initial BIOS setup, just flashed new driver. If you don't have money to burn, then don't waste your hard earned money on the Asus ROG (Republic of Gamers) boards. This Intel X48 board will overclocks and runs very well among gamers & enthusiasts. Fear not, this board will play very nice with DDR3 (1600, 1800, & 2000). This board is SPECTACULAR!!!

Cons: I wish Asus had killed the floppy connector on the board in exchange for more USB 2.0 headers. Would have traded the WiFi-AP @ n feature for a PCI Express Creative X-Fi SupremeFX sound card found on Asus Rampage Extreme board.

Overall Review: First build and second desktop since an HP Pavilion w/ an Intel Pentium III @ 1.00GHz. Current System Specs: Cooler Master Stacker 830 (silver), Cooler Master Real Power Pro RS-750watt, 1-LG Blu-ray burner GGW-H20L, 1-Lite On DVD burner LH-20A1L-06, 1-Western Digital 1TB Black HDD, 1-Western Digital 300GB VelociRaptor HDD (for OS), Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650 overclocked to 3840MHz, Corsair XMS3 DHX 4GB(2x2GB) DDR3 1600 overclocked to 1700MHz, Cooler Master "Hyper 212" heatsink/cooler, Asus P5E3 Premium WiFi-AP@n board, 1-Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 4870X2, Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatal1ty Pro, Boston Acoustic 2.1 media speakers, Samsung SyncMaster 24" 245T monitor, Logitech Wave keyboard&mouse combo, 1-Logitech G9 gaming mouse, and Vista Ultimate SP1 64-bit.
