Great deal at the time, def dont regret

Pros: my first widescreen, feels luxurious to have the extra space for 3D software and compositing menus, no light bleeds, still has its brightness and color after 2 years
Cons: would not recommend for a machine that has any chance of struggling from the extra resolution in gaming, with the wide wide there aren't many options for lesser resolutions in most of the games I've tried if you need to reduce rendering burden/get better fps etc
Overall Review: might buy another and drop one of my other screens if I find a convenient articulating mount that can hold 2, I am open to suggestions
Close to Good, broke quickly

Pros: Inexpensive and comes with windows7. Can keep up with most tasks in photoshop, gets a little sluggish painting with hundreds of layers, though. Handles middle to high-res video (720p and some 1080p) using VLC player. Runs Maya surprisingly well if your scene is simple.. can't do full scenes or particle simulations well.
Cons: Not 64bit, and has serious display issues including but not limited to an intermittent screen flash that occurs every 10 seconds. Very not good and worse of all carries over to external monitors and eludes everything I've tried to fix it. It cannot handle sculpting apps like ZBrush, and can't even install Mudbox, and gives me issues trying to implement operations that use OpenGL--get it set up, a few weeks go by and it will suddenly require a resetup for display drivers to make OpenGL functions work again.
Overall Review: Best used as a cheap television and movie hub, very good battery life, runs extra monitors well (except for the flashing problem mine has that I mention in cons).. That flickering screen problem happens to people often enough, though, people on youtube complaining about it as well.. Mine started just after any hope of getting it covered like the defect it is. Doesn't seem like a hardware glitch, though, so perhaps a solution is still out there.
Worked well for a year so far

Pros: I've gotten hours out of a charge of a pretty hefty rig while it was in the middle of a Maya render, power flickers here semi regularly and haven't lost any work from power outs since, so definitely been worth it, info screen looks fancy
Cons: none so far
Overall Review: not a connoisseur of backup power but gonna get the same one for my wacom monitor dedicated machine
Work on and off, says they're not SONY when plugged in

Pros: Look ok, feel ok
Cons: Errors occur and the system tell you its counterfeit when plugged into a computer.
Overall Review: Paperweights.
Worked for 3 weeks

Pros: Looked decent enough and worked fine for 1 week
Cons: Tested it briefly at first but didn't get to use the machine it was for until I had it for two weeks. Then, After 1 week, stopped giving battery life % info. Unfortunate but didn't mind it too much, after 2 more weeks, it stopped working altogether. AND since it was barely past the 30-day warranty, I had to swallow the 45 bucks. Probably the cheapest thing I've ever bought off here, but I am reconsidering my affinity for newegg because of this issue.
Overall Review: Don't wait to put your orders to the test no matter how pleasant your previous NewEgg experiences have been, they will leave you out to dry even on dud products if they can.
received box-less extremely used items in a bag, missing parts
They sent me 2 very used, (1 of which missing one of its glide panels on the bottom) mice, with no boxes, no paperwork, floating around in a bag. When I said this to them, they ignored how not-new and/or broken they are, only saying "These are new but we received in bulk packaging due to save on shipping." These mice's left-click switches give out in small ways at about a year of use (won't maintain a click during drag, and other problems that are extremely apparent in animation/visual effects workflows and certain games) and shady retailers try to clean those up and resell them hoping someone undiscerning receives them. NewEgg should cut ties with third parties that knowingly do this. This is the second order of these mice I've gotten like this through NewEgg, the first used-passed-off-as-new one I got had a legit-looking box and I didn't check until way too late when I needed it. This time, with two mice, no boxes even, very used, missing parts, then disregard if not deception in seller correspondence.
