Works
Pros: Solid construction, adapts display port to HDMI
Cons: Price, but hey, all A/V adapters are overpriced. This one was better than normal
Overall Review: What more can I say? It converts my ThinkPad's Display Port to HDMI so I can plug it into my TV for $14!
Should have trusted fellow NewEggers...
Pros: Good price, dock is physically pretty solid for the price. Self adapts between 2.5 and 2.5 drives. Power Switch is nice so it's not always on.
Cons: HORRIBLE transfer speeds, like around 4 MB/S. Read a review before I purchased that said dock corrupted his data, didn't believe it. Sure enough 3/4 of the way through a 750GB transfer from a docked 1TB WD the OS threw out the notice that the files were corrupt. Ran tests on the hard drive, and while it was still usable, the current data was trashed and had to format. That drive had always been fine before that - thankfully had a backup. Won't do that again.
Overall Review: NewEgg should drop this product so it doesn't taint their stellar reputation.
Awesome
Pros: Perfect fit for both my Asus eee and Acer Aspire One systems. Accessory pouch on the front is just the right size.
Cons: None that I can see.
Overall Review: AWESOME bang for your buck on this one. I'll be buying more when they come back in stock.
Yeah...No...
Pros: Expandable RAM, good HDD space. easily accessible ports.
Cons: Keyboard is VERY noisy, even for a netbook. System is loaded with bloatware (as expected). The 250GB hard drive came partitioned in 4 chunks, with the bulk of the drive reserved for a spare "D" drive - who does that anymore!?! Prepare to spend a few hours with this thing fixing it's quirks if you decide to buy one.
Overall Review: Don't purchase if you need in a classroom or other quiet environment as you'll distract everyone around you. I bought 3 of them, so I know the keyboard noise isn't a fluke. Asus may may good boards, but this netbook is lacking in MAJOR ways.
Quirky
Pros: Typical IBM/Lenovo keyboard feeling and styling. 2 Port USB hub integrated into keyboard. Quite a few useful buttons.
Cons: I'm running Vista Business 32-Bit and I'll be darned if this keyboard likes it. The controller software for the hot buttons always crashes and renders the buttons (I mostly just use the volume control) useless. I am using it with a Lenovo Desktop so there should be no issue. No driver updates available from lenovo or MS for this thing. Also, it's touchy. I always have to go over what I write to make sure a letter wasn't left off. No, that's not from typos, but rather from the keyboard deciding it wants to not output letters randonly. Happens about twice a day. Tried with 2 Lenovo desktops and same result.
Overall Review: Unless your desktop doesn't have a PS/2 port, don't buy this thing. It's just not stable enough for normal use. Get a good old fashioned PS/2 keyboard that won't fail.
Love it
Pros: Great price and performance.
Cons: Wasn't free...
Overall Review: I purchase these for use with Camtasia. This is one of the only sound cards I have found that will allow Camtasia Studio (any version) to record what plays through the speakers instead of what is heard through the mic. I bought 10 of them and not one has been bad. LOVE NEWEGG!
