Most Critical Review

Bad Support from LG

LG 34UM95-P Black 34" Class QHD UltraWide LED Backlight LCD Monitor IPS Panel 320 cd/m2 DFC 5,000,000:1(1000:1), Dual HDMI / Dual ThunderBolt ports
LG 34UM95-P Black 34" Class QHD UltraWide LED Backlight LCD Monitor IPS Panel 320 cd/m2 DFC 5,000,000:1(1000:1), Dual HDMI / Dual ThunderBolt ports

Pros: Great Picture, plenty of usable screen real estate.

Cons: When my monitor wold sleep, it would change all my window size and settings. I did the registry hacks, but nothing fixed the problem. Then, one side of the screen started going black on wake. LG was little help. They offered no help beyond "you have a bad cable (I tried 3)" or "you're video card can't handle the monitor (I have a 280X). So they finally agreed to exchange it, but only if I send in my monitor first. So now I get to be without a monitor for at least a week. I don't know of any major monitor mfg that doesn't have any quick swap options under warranty. Life is NOT good LG. I will not be using your monitors anymore.

Does NOT Transmit MCE standard codes

Adesso ARC-1100 MCE Infrared Remote Control

Pros: Remote works as advertised

Cons: Remote does note transmit/receive the standard MCE IR commands so you cannot use the WMC SE device that has all the great commands with a Harmony remote.

Overall Review: If all you want are the buttons that are on the remote provided, you will be happy. BUT if you want separate ON OFF commands or all the keyboard shortcuts....look elsewhere!

Run away quickly

ADESSO  WKB-4100UB  Black  USB  2.4 GHz RF Wireless  SlimTouch Ergo Touchpad Keyboard - Retail

Pros: Looks great, feels great, has every button you could wish for.

Cons: 100' range is an absolute joke when it does work. Try 10'. Unit died after an hour of use.

Overall Review: Before buying ANYTHING from Adesso, try calling their tech line, you won't get an answer or a return phone call (I'm serious...try it for yourself!). Try their on-line chat...it doesn't work! Try requesting an RMA. It has been 2 days and I have only received confirmation that they received my request...no RMA.
