Great memory

Pros: - Fast - Heatsink is reasonably sized - My memory benchmarks actually went up, even though I have another 6GB of Corsair Dominator with the same XMP profile in the same machine. - much cheaper than Dominator
Cons: none
Overall Review: Be aware that to use CAS of 7, you need to run the memory at 1.65v. At 1.5v (667MHz), it is rated at CAS 9.
Do not work in a Eee PC T91MT

Pros: Good specs
Cons: Does not work in my Eee PC T91MT - the machine does not boot.
Overall Review: Theoretically, this may just need a BIOS update, although I don't think so. And, yes, I did disable the fast boot option, before anybody brings that up. Regardless - according to the specs it should work and it doesn't, hence 1 egg.
A versatile laptop

Pros: - price - features - speed - versatility - does not heat up - quiet
Cons: - Fn key placement - short battery life - the screen is 14.1", but the laptop has dimensions close to my old 17" one - it is the same width, but an inch shorter. This is due to the wide border around the screen. - not very light
Overall Review: - The GPU is 4670, however it is clocked as a 4650 and the driver does not allow overclocking. You may be able to use a 3rd party tool. - Screen resolution is a bit small, but works well for this size screen. Overall I find this to be a great compromise between performance and size. Its versatility makes it a great all-around computer - you can play games on it, work, surf, play movies and drive an external TV. It is exactly what I was looking for, even though it is not perfect.
simply amazing

Pros: Great story, very nice graphics (almost photorealistic), great fighting system, novel fighting styles with technics and biotics, romance subplot
Cons: - gets a little repetitive, if you want to explore planets that are not part of the main plot - when fighting, you cannot aim from the tactical screen (with action paused) and keep the aim when you continue - the effect of weapons, upgrades, etc is not avalable as a value in your stats, so you just have to guess at it - items did not get better in a satisfying curve (hard to explain, but it just did not feel as good getting new items as with other RPGs). - romance does not have direct effect on gameplay - romance plot is fairly limited, and the "controversial" love scenes are tame and 5-6 seconds long. i would have liked a little more payoff in that area.
Overall Review: an awesome game, i loved playing it, can't wait for Mass Effect 2.
surprisingly good

Pros: Extensive system of combo moves for different characters; decent story; items
Cons: graphics are outdated; random encounters with baddies can be annoying; static maps
Overall Review: It was surprisingly engaging to play this game, considering the quality of the graphics.
