I like it...

Pros: Replaced an old Braun that worked fine but always had a hard time with a few stubborn whiskers. The Panasonic is a definite improvement. I use it with a gel shaving cream. The stubborn whisker areas are still stubborn but this shaver does a much better job on them. Very happy.
Cons: None
Just what I wanted...

Pros: Since moving to a small acreage 3 years ago I wanted a surveillance system. I wasn't happy with the choices or the prices back then so I have waited. After a recent road rage incident with a psycho lunatic, resulting in the Oklahoma highway patrol GIVING THE LUNATIC MY NAME AND ADDRESS, I decided to invest in a system. Fortunately the technology has improved, prices have dropped, and the products are now made for DIY consumers. Install was easy, quality is very good for the price, the DVR is very small and easy to hide, and it all works very well. The interface has many options so you can customize to suit your needs. I have mine on continuous recording as well as motion detection. This provides a log of all motion detected so I can easily review every instance of detected motion. Internet setup was not easy but I was able to do it myself and it works quite well. You can even customize internet access with user names and passwords.
Cons: None really. It's a nice package for the price.
Overall Review: The infra-red attracts bugs, day or night. This will activate the motion sensors giving you a false detection.
I think it's great...

Pros: For the price this thing is awesome. The top mesh panel pops out easily and will hold two 120mm fans. It took me a few minutes to realize that the fans don't mount to the case, they snap into the removable cover. Very slick. The mesh screens are protected by foam to keep the dog hair out. I like the bottom mount PS and both bottom inlets have a foam filter. Nice big side screen/window lets you have a peak inside. Blue LED surrounds the power button. HDD LED is in the center of the reset button. Tool-free drive trays are cool. You can also use screws. Neato.
Cons: Tool-free hard drive tray does not lock well. My HD would slide when I plugged in the connectors. No big deal, still better than fumbling with tiny screws.
I like it...

Pros: Easy install. I like the BIOS. Has Memtest86+ in the BIOS. HDMI is awesome connected to 50" Panasonic plasma. Unlocked the fourth core on my Athlon II x3 445 easily.
Cons: Diagnostic LED's on the board indicate a memory error according to the manual (only the top one is lit). But memory passes tests and runs at rated C7 just fine.
Very nice...

Pros: Decided to spend a little extra and buy a respected brand. 120mm fan is nice. Sleeved cables are nice. Seems to be doing its job just fine. Only time will tell.
Cons: None found.
Wow...

Pros: It's been a while since I built a new desktop. I've been trying to get by with an old Dell laptop. I'm very glad I made the upgrade. Fourth core unlocked easily but no L3. Fast and inexpensive.
Cons: None.
Overall Review: Won't weed the garden
