Works good but design could be better

Pros: The power supply works as intended, lots of juice and has lasted me four years.
Cons: I would prefer if all cables were modular and the screen infront of the intake fan was finer. For the cables roughly half of them are modular, there were a few I didn't need and couldn't remove so I just hid them within the case. Finally the ultimate reason why I only gave it three stars is because of the screen on the intake fan. Four years ago my case arrived covered in green peanut foam, I cleaned all but about four tiny pieces out (only left in because I couldn't get them out). Time passed and everything was fine, then I moved. During the move the tiny foam somehow migrated to inside the power supply. Get to my new house, plug it in, and poof fried PC.
Overall Review: I just ordered a replacement. Upon arrival I'll void the warranty by doing some surgery, namely adding a mesh screen before the intake fan.
Good for awhile

Pros: -Fast -Easy to setup
Cons: -Has a lifespan of about a year
Overall Review: This worked very well until a few days ago when it started heating up and I'd lose connection. If it's unplugged and allowed to cool down I'll get another 1-2 minutes after plugging it back in. Strange how most stuff dies right after the warranty expires isn't it. Just glad its only $40
Function and...

Pros: They work
Cons: They barely work, specifically: I've gone through every software setting trying to find out why these barely work, its as if the master sound is at 10%. I typically have the volume up pretty high just to hear voices, room rattling sound effects are just out of the question.
Overall Review: I'll go back to my six year old 2.0 speakers, try to sell these on one of those auction sites or something.
Worthless OS

Pros: Can't think of one
Cons: It's meant to run as XP but this version isn't supported by much of anything. Most plug and play hardware that I have won't run on it. Most drivers for hardware that I have are supported by this version. I can't network into my other XP computers. Not even Norton antivirus 2003 is compatible!
Overall Review: Well just bought XP pro to replace this an awful OS, so I'm down $xxx. Wish I read the reviews for this before I bought it. (there is another listing for this OS with more info) But it would have been really nice to know that there is a trial version of this OS available from Microsoft.
