Very Nice Set

Pros: Well made, quality set with all useful tools for the BBQ'er. I gave these to my son as a gift and he has been pleased every time he uses these.
Cons: case is cheap
This is the one to buy

Pros: This case is actually divided down the center. One side for the netbook and then a second side for the power adapter, mouse etsc. the zipper closes over both pockets keeping everything in a neat tidy case that secures it all. Light and not at all bulky.
Cons: This one is just plain black, but it does come in colors and print too.
Nice Solid Laptop

Pros: Despite the low weight which is a huge plus, this laptop has a solid feel when handling. Even the screen which is probably only a quarter inch thick does not have any "give" when opening the unit. The power supply follows suit and is small and light as well making this one of my new favorites to use at meetings. The brightness and color are exceptional and I usually find myself turning it lower when using on ac power. The keyboard is easy to type on, although I worry that dust may settle in the niches that the actual keys lay in, but so far just blowing it out has kept it just fine. The processor is fast enough for using multiple apps at once as I usally do without any burps or slow downs at all. I am not a gamer but I can attest to using excel and word simutaneously and then putting on a video on doesn't cause any problem at all. Overall it is an eye catcher. I would recommend this to anyone.
Cons: As others have said, the piano black gloss to the edge is a fingerprint nightmare! As I said before, I love the looks of this unit but wish the black could have been textured a bit. My only other comment is the battery life. I have gotten 4 and a half hours, maybe a bit more but the usual is right around four. I believe the specs cite closer to six and possibly with the higher capacity battery it is. But I wonder if it would be worth it to sacrifice the weight, right now this is so easy to carry!
Overall Review: I previously used a 12in laptop because of the weight issue but having the luxury of the 14in is fantastic.
Best Handheld Vacuum I've seen!

Pros: As another reviewer said, I will echo..This thing really sucks! Most power of any hand held vacuum I have ever seen. It also comes with a strap to carry it over your shoulder while you use the accessories, which are a hose that is about two feet long and a brush attachment. Cord is pleny long, would estimate 15 feet.
Cons: Had a "kick" when I first turned it on due to the power, you need to have a good grip on it. The only downside I have found is that the exhaust is warm, which would be great if it were cold outside, but it isn't. All in all a fair trade off. I would recommend this thing wholeheartedly.
Never thought I'd choose an HP, but...

Pros: Not one dead pixel and accurate color. Display is bright and crisp at all angles. This is a pleasure to watch movies on. I had previously been using two 19" monitors in a dual configuration as it made internet research a breeze but no longer need it with this size screen, I can easily have the source document and word open in the same screen using fonts big enough to actually read while typing in my information. As an extra thought I have to say that this monitor is classy looking as well on the desktop..very nice additon
Cons: As everyone else stated, the on-screen menus would have been nice but hardly a deal breaker to have as the contols are located up front and adjustments were easy, but I haven't had to worry about needing any changes since the initial set-up so it doesn't matter to me. I personally find the location of the usb ports to be inconvienent as I cannot seem to plug any new item in without craning to look behind the monitor.
Overall Review: This monitor is expensive but definately has that "wow" factor. But putting this aside, it seems that with displays you "get what you pay for" and this is worth it. Of course I never actually realized just how bad my other looked until plugging this one in so.oo..
One Satisfied User

Pros: No dead pixels, dark areas etc. I did turn down the brightness as a white background is blinding otherwise. View is clear, crisp and sharp with accurate colors when doing photo editing. Beautiful but HUGE.
Cons: I have always been partial to on screen menus for adjusting the monitor settings, with the brightness, you have to go by sight alone as there is no on-screen menu support.
Overall Review: I love this monitor! and now everyone suddenly wants to use MY computer! I have worried in the past about ordering on line without acutally seeing the actual display, but there is no buyers remorse here, I just look at this thing with awe! and it is very bright which made me happy since I worried about the specs being lower than other monitors in the 30in class. Bottom line: GET THIS ONE.
