Most Favorable Review

Good headset for the $$$

Motorola Over the Ear Bluetooth Headset Bulk (H700)
Motorola Over the Ear Bluetooth Headset Bulk (H700)

Pros: Cheap. Long Battery Life. Easy to use. Decent ambient noise suppression. Uses the same charger as my BlackBerry. (USB)

Cons: Not very durable. Sound quality GOOD but not great.

Overall Review: For the price you can't go wrong. Be careful with the unit itself, it does not like water or high humidity.

Most Critical Review

Good Design, not compatible

IOGEAR GCS62HU 2-Port HD Cable KVM Switch with Audio
IOGEAR GCS62HU 2-Port HD Cable KVM Switch with Audio

Pros: Long Cables Sturdy Construction One of the only HDMI KVM's available Audio and Keyboard functional Easy to connect

Cons: Does not work with Mionix NAOS 3200 Loooong wait time for tech support (telephone). Very little online support documents form IOGEAR on website No troubleshooting documentation printed with the device.

Overall Review: I didn't need the video capability of this KVM, I wanted the keyboard/mouse/audio switching capability. I bought the HDMI unit for future upgrade-ability or other uses down the road (game console/laptop). Disappointingly, Mionix NAOS 3200 would only move horizontally and would cause random actions on the desktop. Related specs: Windows 7 64bit Mionix NAOS3200 Logitech LX710 Keyboard KVM spit between homebuilt PC and HP Laptop (work).

Excellent deal on a very capable older laptop

HP B Grade Laptop Intel Core i7-3667U 8GB Memory 320GB HDD 14.0" Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit Folio 9470M

Pros: - HP Folio Aluminum body laptop, i7 2ghz, 8 Mem, 320HDD, Displayport - Windows 10 loaded with activation code sticker on bottom of unit - "B" grade cosmetic, would say 8 out of 10 for looks - For the price, you cannot do any better for a unit made for business/school use and casual gaming

Cons: - The Screen resolution is not for a professional that works on images. But most of these were sold to large companies as business laptops, so it was never designed for that.

Overall Review: JoySystems did an excellent job refurbishing this unit. I would buy from them again.

Writing a review of a mousepad? Well yeah, it's awesome!

Razer RZ02-00420100-R3U1 Scarab Expert Hard Gaming Mouse Mat
Razer RZ02-00420100-R3U1 Scarab Expert Hard Gaming Mouse Mat

Pros: Does not slide or move on desk surface Silver-metallic grey color (fits well into an adult office) Comes with a travel-case (a little over-the-top, but still cool) Clean edges -- very good craftsmanship Easy to clean Excellent accuracy

Cons: Not really a con, because you're getting what you pay for, but it is expensive. Perhaps lower the cost by losing the travel-case. (But LAN gamers may really like it, sooo...)

Overall Review: If you want to buy a pad that will last for a decade, this is the one to get.

Great cable for those pesky display ports

Pros: Have an HP docking station with twin displayport outputs. Bought these cables to run to my Asus 23" LED monitors. They work just fine. They click in and out easy. Cable is flexible, yet seems to be very well made.

Cons: Had to RMA one cable because the pins were bent. No big deal, NewEgg had my replacement within 3-days.

Works great for peripherals accross a large space

Pros: Thick clear jacket. LED shows unit is functional. Attached to Lexmark MFP and works just fine. All the length you ever need.

Cons: Measure what length you really need, this is one long cable.
