Great Value

Pros: Biggest Pro on this was the price. It was about the same price as an entry level eMachine, but far better in many ways. Upgradeable. For an additional 60 bucks I was able to get two more sticks of RAM for a total of 8gigs. Definitely more than I need for my purposes. No pre-installed software. The biggest headache I have when i buy a new machine is trying to get the Anti-Virus software uninstalled, this, very thankfully, came without it. McAfee and Norton have always caused me such system slowdown that the tiny amount of security they provide (to someone experienced enough to know how NOT to get a virus) is not worth sacrificing the performance. Many retail box machines like Dell, eMachines, and Gateway come straight out of the box unable to run windows update because of the anti-virus software, and you have to be a tech genius to eliminate it from your machine completely. Additionally, there was no "free trial" software on the machine. Just Windows. Perfect for me.
Cons: The size of the tower is a bit overwhelming. It is nice that it has so many available ports for upgrade, but the box sticks out from my desk by a couple inches. It just doesn't need to be quite that big. The sound is less than ideal. Perfectly functional (and to those who said the front ports don't work out of the box, there is a setting from the audio control toolbox that comes pre-selected to disable the front panel ports. Why? I gots no idea). I didn't expect theater quality sound, but the overall sound of everything on the machine sounds a bit tinny. You will probably need to buy a third-party card if you plan to use this for media or gaming. But those cards are pretty cheap now.
Overall Review: Straight out of the box, before I made any changes to the machine, it worked perfectly. Once I started installing software, it went in amazingly fast. A game that had taken me about an hour to install on my previous machine only took 10 or 12 minutes on this one. The graphics are amazing. I am able to play WoW at max resolution with the graphics set to Ultra, getting 60fps pretty much all the time. Even in Dalaran or in BG's that caused my old computer to lock up, I have never seen this one go below 25fps, and then only for a second or two. The lack of any pre-installed software will keep me coming back to CyberPower for future PC upgrades. Not having to deal with the annoyance of uninstalling all that garbage, or having to tell it not to register the software once every couple of days is really nice. If your goal is great performance on a budget, especially if you don't want or need all that bundled garbage, you will love this machine.
meh

Pros: It looked cool. It was easy to hook up.
Cons: I had problems with this thing starting a couple months after I bought it. One channel just wasn't working right; I could either do off or full speed with nothing in between. I just lived with that because one channel wasn't a deal breaker. Within six months I had three of four channels doing the same thing. Now by about 18 months I had all the fines wired around the controller because it just didn't work anymore.
Overall Review: This is on a seldom used backup machine, so I'm not going to hammer the rating too hard because I don't get to this one to clean it as often as I should. Perhaps with better maintenance it would have lasted longer? Although all the other components in the PC continue to work diligently. For my next build, though, I went with a much simpler fan controller (knobs only, with brightness leds to indicate speed, no fancy temp/speed display) and have had much better results -though I have owned it for a few months less.
Works well for a good price

Pros: initial setup was painless. easy to change wifi security settings. no issue connecting with 10+ devices.
Cons: the onboard settings (where you go when you type in the IP) sometimes don't load and I had to refresh the page a number of times to get at them. It was a minor inconvenience.
Overall Review: I bought this to replace an actiontec modem for my centurylink dsl. Installation was much easier than expected. I used the disk that came with it, and only had to enter ppp name and password when prompted. I have four pc's connected to this by ethernet, two laptops by wifi, two roku boxes, a media pc, a smart dvd player, several tablets and cell phones while in range, and it hasn't yet dropped a connection on any of them (that was my biggest issue with the actiontec). Signal strength on the wifi is significantly better than it was with my old modem, and download speeds through the wifi are much faster (upload remains about the same). Overall I'm very happy with its performance, and will probably buy another one to have around just in case the first one happens to fail.
Definitely a 5 star headset

Pros: -The Sound is very good for the price. -The pads on the headset are very soft, making this the most comfortable (possibly the only comfortable) circumaural headset I have ever owned -I have rather large ears (and a large head) and it is still super comfortable even after several hours of gaming.
Cons: Not a huge fan of the detachable microphone; it seems like it will be too easy to lose or break. But I knew that was the design from the description.
Just what I was looking for

Pros: -Lightweight- easy for my elderly mother to move around. -Very comfortable. -Looks just like the picture.
Cons: -The base is just tubular steel covered in cloth. -The assembly instructions. -The footstool part of it isn't actually held together by anything. If you try to pick it up it will separate into two pieces every time.
Overall Review: Was looking for a chair like the one I had in a hotel room last summer: super-lightweight recliner that swiveled and was easy to move around. This fit the bill perfectly. My mother has problems with her ankles, but is able to move this around without issue. It is really quite comfortable. Although it is more comfortable for someone probably under about 5'5" since it sits a little too low to the floor and the headrest isn't tall enough for me at 5'10". The instructions are absolutely worthless. The parts aren't even identified clearly. Thankfully there are only so many ways the pieces can go, and each of the different types of screws have different quantities for assembly -although it feels a bit like a logic problem when you first open it up. I'm not sure if I would have paid full price for it, but it is certainly worth it if you can find it on discount under 200.
Perfect for my build

Pros: low profile mount. No cooling fan. HDMI out.
Cons: None.
Overall Review: Installed in a Media PC with windows 7. Looking for a card with HDMI out and no cooling fan (noise concerns). This card fit the bill perfectly and installed without issue. The video and sound quality from the HDMI are perfectly acceptable. Another poster rated this 1 egg for not working under windows XP. I don't think that is fair to the product considering Windows XP went end of life so long ago. It is not advertised as being compatible with Windows XP, and I'm sure there is a much broader market to manufacture items compatible with current Operating Systems than obsolete Operating Systems. I think it's a bit foolish at this point to expect hardware to work with XP unless it is explicitly stated in the description. I'm sure it also probably wouldn't work with Windows 3.1, perhaps we should dock points for that as well?
Decent Jewelry - horrible shipping
The ring is as described and was an excellent price. However... The item was supposed to arrive in 5-7 days. After 8 days the item still hadn't even shipped, so I emailed the seller. Two days later (after not receiving a response) I contacted newEgg. The seller finally shipped the item that day and responded to my initial email inquiry. After that, the shipping was four days. If an item is not in stock or on backorder, they should advertise it as such (with estimated shipping delay). Simply waiting for ten days to ship an item with no explanation is unacceptable.
Top notch seller
The ring arrived exactly as pictured; it actually looks much better in person than in the pictures -particularly the stone. My wife absolutely loves it. It even came with a gift bag and a tiny little teddy bear holding a rose. The shipping was super fast. I will certainly do business with this seller again.
