Most Critical Review

Computer freezes all the time now, uninstalled it

Rosewill RNX-G300LX - Wireless WRT54 Wi-Fi Adapter - IEEE 802.11b/g, Up to 54 Mbps Data Rate, PCI Interface with 2 dBi Antenna
Rosewill RNX-G300LX - Wireless WRT54 Wi-Fi Adapter - IEEE 802.11b/g, Up to 54 Mbps Data Rate, PCI Interface with 2 dBi Antenna

Pros: None that I can think of

Cons: Works, but freezes my computer all the time. Can't get the computer to not freeze for more than 20 minutes now, even if I don't touch anything.

Overall Review: Installed it with the driver disk. It works, and pulls in network signals, but the computer freezes all the time now, especially when I open a browser. I uninstalled it and took out the card, and now my computer works fine again. I know it's cheap, and I shouldn't expect much, but I thought it would at least work for a few months. Bought it because I need a temporary solution to connect my desktop wirelessly while remodeling. But at this price, it's too much of a hassle to request an rma, wrap it and go the shipping place just for a 10 dollar refund. Oh well, lesson learned, don't buy Rosewill.

Good for the Money, not Great overall

Wintec 16GB FileMate Swivel USB Flash Drive 3FMUSB16GWB-R
Wintec 16GB FileMate Swivel USB Flash Drive 3FMUSB16GWB-R

Pros: Cheap, works, data transfer rate is decent, looks nice

Cons: Bought 2, both have 15gb, instead of 16gb (no other preloaded data on it). Swivel feature is smooth, but lacks any resistance, so it swivels with very little force, exposing part or all of the USB port.

Overall Review: I don't understand how companies get away with branding something '16gb' and not giving 16gb. I mean, I do understand, but it still confounds me that most USB flash drives I've worked with don't come with the advertised space.
