Exellent Card!!!

Pros: Card is a great buy for what you are getting. Just because a video card has 512MB of RAM does not mean that it is a good video card. It may only be able to use 256MB of the RAM and in this case this card uses all of its 256MB!! Great cooling system also. Great Buy!!
Cons: None!
Overall Review: Watch for the interface. Be sure to get the right type for the right interface. PCI Express 16, PCI Express, PCI, AGP. All are different interfaces so be sure to match them up correctly or you are wasting your time and money.
Think Twice!

Pros: Pros: Small, light weight, and reasonably priced for what you get.
Cons: Now for the negative stuff....I purchased this device in hopes of increasing my wireless signal coverage at home. I also wanted to utilize it to boost my connection at work as it is an open source. However, upon receiving the device there were MAJOR problems with it right out of the box. For starters, the configuration is SO buggy that you have to log in, re-log in, and LOG in again to the repeater's configuration settings. After you finally get the ability to configure the device (You will spend 10-20mins just trying to log into it), you will notice that the wireless signal reception is very poor. I compared the device with my cell phone's wireless adapter and my cellular phone picks up twice the signal this device does. I tested it with the cell phone further away from my wireless access point and placed the Asus repeater closest to the WAP with the same results. I contacted Asus customer support to resolve the login/settings issue and had to wait 30mins on hold before I was able to get a tech representative. He and I confirmed that the device had the latest firmware (It did), made several adjustments and finally got it to work. However, after I spent almost 2 hours on the phone I did not even mention the poor wireless signal reception issue. I have used this device for two days now and it still has issues with login and settings management. The wireless signal reception has also not improved. I recommend that you STEER CLEAR of this device and purchase another brand, but DO NOT purchase Asus WL-330N!!!! Their customer support is poor, and the quality of this product has defiantly pushed me towards other manufacturers. I will not purchase another Asus product.
Need Extra Range? This is for You!

Pros: Install was a breeze along with the firmware update that was available on the NETGEAR website. Range of this thing combined with a Range Max router is outstanding. Even with a regular router b/g it's distance is much better than your standard wireless adapter.
Cons: It is a very high priced piece of equipment.
Anti-Virus Software

Pros: Just to give some of y'all the heads up on the Anti-virus software problem. Avast Professional Edition Version 4.7 works GREAT with VISTA 32 & 64 bit. It also has PUSH updating available. Do a Google search for AVAST and you should be able to find it. Hope this helps!! Great OS! NEWEGG ROCKS!!!
Cons: None.
To The Guy Below

Pros: Finally someone who understands how the EULA works with the OEM. Just a phone call to Microsoft is all that needs to be done. Oh and of course a new motherboard!!! HAHAHA just a joke.
Cons: None.
Overall Review: 64 bit or 32? Well it is a question of personal preference. You will see people type reviews on both of them and talk pure trash about the 64 bit version and some will praise it. Then you will see people praising the 32 bit version and saying the 64 is not work the packaging it comes in. My personal preference is the 64 bit version for many reasons but just a few include.... More RAM capabilities, Full usage of a 64 bit processor (which a lot of the dual's are), and in some ways better security. The only con I would warn is the lack of programs and drivers that are available at this time. Don't sweat it though the drivers and apps will catch up.
OEM

Pros: Lets clear this up about the OEM shall we? OEM will be able to be activated on 1 computer for the duration of the system. However, if the motherboard were to fail, be replaced, or just stated to be replaced then the OS can be reinstalled on that machine. Sometimes you have to call Microsoft and get a conformation number in order to complete the process.
Cons: You can only install it on one machine. However, motherboards like all of us at newegg know are replaced everyday!!! HAHA!
Overall Review: Great OS by the way!
