Most Favorable Review

I like it

hec Black 0.7mm Thickness SECC Steel 7K09BBA30FNRX Micro ATX Media Center 300W Power Supply / HTPC Case

Pros: o Very nice looking o Small o Solid o Everything fit with a very tight tolerance o Comes with PSU & fan o Good ventilation o Horizontal or vertical mounting o Very quite

Cons: o Thumbscrew threads all stripped (actually to small for holes in case) o no ESATA on front panel

Overall Review: My pros and cons pretty much wrap up my opinion of this case. For the price it's really a pretty decent case. I am really happy with the way it looks, it fits in with my AV equipment nicely.

Most Critical Review

Terrible range

Belkin Bluetooth Music Receiver for iPhone 3G/3GS / iPhone 4 / iPod touch 2nd Gen (F8Z492-P)
Belkin Bluetooth Music Receiver for iPhone 3G/3GS / iPhone 4 / iPod touch 2nd Gen (F8Z492-P)

Pros: Size, style Sound quality (when I have a connection)

Cons: Range

Overall Review: Doesn't come close to the advertised range. Just walking across the room with my tablet and it starts cutting out. You would be better off with an extra long AUX cable. I am going to try to return it.

Lasted 1 yr 10 days

Western Digital Caviar Green WD20EADS 2TB 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive-Factory Recertified

Pros: Worked fine at first

Cons: - This was one of my backup drives in my home server. With these drives you need to backup your backup drives. - I will never buy a recertified drive again. My fault for not realizing that Western Digital doesn't even have confidence in them by only offering a 90 day warranty.

Overall Review: My recommendation is to stay away from any recertified drive that the manufacturer will not provide the same warranty and service as their new retail drives.

Awesome tablet

SONY Xperia Tablet S 16GB 1GB Memory 9.4" 1280 x 800 Tablet PC Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich)
SONY Xperia Tablet S 16GB 1GB Memory 9.4" 1280 x 800 Tablet PC Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich)

Pros: Size, Weight, Style, Build Quality, Performance, SD card slot

Cons: No HDMI out (without multi-port), Required Multi-port cap to be splash proof (mine didn't come with one and no one seems to have one), Sony seems to have dropped all support and accessories for this device (completely abandoned it).

Overall Review: Great tablet, I love it. The size is perfect. But I won't buy another Sony tablet. As soon as they release another tablet they completely abandon the previous model. I like this tablet more than my iPad 2, but at least Apple continues to support their older products. I purchased several Sony accessories for this tablet and love how good they look and work with it.

Excellent portable HDD enclosure

IOCell Networks 251UE 2.5" SATA USB & eSATA External Enclosure
IOCell Networks 251UE 2.5" SATA USB & eSATA External Enclosure

Pros: o Solid and well built o Very fast o USB 2.0 works on every laptop I've tried it on (unlike cheap enclosures) o eSATA

Cons: o Chrome finish always looks dirty o No case o Cables running everywhere when using eSATA

Overall Review: The excellent performance of this enclosure trump its shortcomings. And when I say shortcomings I mean minor annoyances like mentioned above. This is the highest quality enclosure I have purchased yet, and it's worth the money.
