Pros: Lightweight, easy to use.A real bargain when on sale. Reacts much quicker and smoothly than photoshop even on a decent machine.

Cons: some of the new painting brushes are a bit limited but that's not really what you get this for.

Overall Review: Grab this and a cheap 8x6 tablet and you're set to do artwork on a budget or if you're using a low powered laptop. This is also a good program to use as a preliminary to loading your drawing into photoshop for final work.

Pros: I mainly used this for front usb ports. It worked well at that mostly. A little trouble getting plugs in but nothing too bad.

Cons: After mostly using it for front usb ports for many months I used the micro sd card reader a couple times and all the card slot readers died and it started causing my computer to lock up. I had to disconnect the whole thing.

Overall Review: I should've listened to the reviews but I figured what the heck since it was on sale cheap. Since I'm out of warranty I guess I'll take it apart and see if I can figure out whats wrong or at least disconnect the card reader part so I can use front usb ports again.

Pros: its small. runs on easy to find AAAs and I was surprised to find it has a nice capacitive screen. Its also updateable and with a 16gb card you can even add project gutenberg

Cons: non backlit lcd screen is a bit hard to read in certain conditions. maybe in the future they'll have an e-ink screen.

Overall Review: this goes into my disaster kit.

Pros: Its roomy and lots of fans. Its black.... everywhere, even black screws.

Cons: Mine came defective, the mother board tray was warped and it took some hammering just to get the rear ports to get out the back. Quick release drive mounts are iffy so I went with screws instead. Fans were noisy. If you can get mobo throttling go for it but I used the 7 volt trick instead. Makes them bearable.

Overall Review: I should've returned this case for the mobo tray but I was under a deadline building a new computer for someone and return shipping is always an extra cost that eats into my profit.

Pros: 3 quiet fans. lots of room. cable guides are a little flimsy but mostly work. PS can be mounted upside down or right side up depending on your fan config. extra fan mounting points all over the place. rubber bushings for hd mounts.

Cons: power and reset buttons are extra flimsy and hard to push. cable guides could use a latching system of some type. dont like the top plugs, front would be better.

Overall Review: Chrome stripes down the top and front look like something out of a 50s diner.

Pros: Cheap, decent looking, works

Cons: No floppy rails behind pop out piece. They messed up making it and put the rails behind the usb/audio port. Tried to get gigabyte to spring for an 5.25 adapter but they tell me that case doesnt spec for having a floppy mounting slot. Then whats the popout hole for and the rails behind the usb/audio ports for? Figures this'd be the one time in a dozen I needed to install a floppy drive.
