Pros: Long Battery Life, has both VGA and HDMI video, relatively lightweight.

Cons: None

Overall Review: My school purchased 3 of these for science teachers and math teachers. All are very happy with the product. They especially like the long battery life, light weight, and the dual video connections for various projectors, LCD TV presentations etc.

Ampo memory modules SDRAM PC133

Pros: Purchased 80 of these modules for older IBM netvista 6700 series. Not a single bad module so far. Half the price offered by a well known online memory source. No compatibility problems. This is a double sided 16 chip low density module, exactly what I was looking for. Extended the life of our school's computer lab for one more year until we can purchase new systems.

Cons: None

RV082

Cisco Small Business RV082 Dual WAN VPN Router
Cisco Small Business RV082 Dual WAN VPN Router

Pros: Easy to install, 8 ports, dual WAN inputs, allows port access rules which are flexible and can be set to apply on a time schedule, rack mount, no fan. Can create virtual LANS. According to an independent review online this has a 256 meg buffer. Could not find anything about it in the documentation. Seems to have really good throughput on a simple network such as mine (80 desktop computers). Relatively easy to setup. Be sure to do a firmware upgrade before you do anything else. Has a wide range of settings. Using a cable modem with a static IP number on the WAN input.

Cons: None yet. One menu offers to sell you a CISCO filtering service that I think is no longer offered. Did not need it anyway and you don't have to turn it on. We use OPENDNS.

Overall Review: I purchased this for a small school environment. Wanted good throughput and ability to control port 53 DNS requests to block student mobile devices bypassing our OPENDNS filtering, need to port forward a server controlling grade database to the internet. This is a class C network router only as far as I can tell, but it allows virtual LANS to be set up. So far it seems to meet all my needs.

Epson screen

EPSON Duet Ultra Portable Projector Screen - ELPSC80

Pros: Fast and easy to set up and take down. Reasonably light. Both normal and widescreen format. Reasonably small package when taken down.

Cons: Slight sagging of the screen edge at the top when fully extended. Fixed height. Neither are significant problems for my use.

Overall Review: This is a great screen for the price. Easy to set up, reasonably light in weight. A great value for a screen like this.
