I had always held the belief that Sony made a good laptop, unfortunately I have been sorely disapointed with this purchase. I realise I purchased the budget Vaio model but this really is a flimsy piece of equipment. The DVD drive especially is a source of problems. It seems to be a real lottery to get a disc to read and 50% of the time when you hit pause on a DVD you won't be able to restart (seen this behaviour with multiple media players, so can't be software related). The touch pad is also not as responsive as my last laptop. Have also had problems with the battery pack overheating. Vista certainly doesn't help the experience either, after using the laptop for more than a couple of hours it is highly probable that it will seize up, requiring ... Read More:

Logitech S530 Wireless Mac Desktop (Mac only product)

Be careful - contrary to reviews, there is a lag with both the keyboard and mouse, the keyboard is clunky, and the mouse is heavy and imprecise. definitely NOT a pleasure to use. i would not buy these again and in fact am going to buy a new keyboard and mouse because i cannot work efficiently with the unresponsiveness.

Extreme 3D Pro Joystick (PC)

Childrens Toy Shop > Computer > Keyboards and Mice
from: Logitech


I'm a fairly heavy gamer and have used this joystick for one to two hours every night since I bought it a month ago. Overall so far I am impressed with this joystick. It is very accurate and responsive, the buttons are good and the whole thing feels comfortable and I think it's a great buy.

Pros: usb connector and that's it, no extra power adaptor needed. Has Twist for rudder control and throttle both responsive and accurate. Lots of buttons you can configure for single key presses. Flush thumb button is great. Small/non existent dead zone, as soon as you start moving the joystick it responds.

Cons: Buttons only do single key presses no macro's. it seems to be developing a dead spot as one of the springs has loosened slightly (I ... Read More:

Wacom Intuos3 A4 Tablet Pen and Mouse USB Mac/Win

I work as car designer and bought this incredible piece of help for my home computer. Long time i was struggling on my PC working on the Photoshop with the mouse (i am even left handed) so, as soon as i got this stuff my work became far superior to what it used to be. I already had a good level using the graphic programs, but the tablet is a completely different world.
For professionals using it mainly for Design, Illustrtion, Arts, this is the best you can get! I HIGHLY recommend this tablet to anyone who works as a professional in the arts and design. However, if you're just free time ethusiasist you do not need to pay all the money for this one. You can purchase yourself one of the cheaper semi-professional gadgets from wacom. The graphire from intuos ... Read More:

MY-Link 106 KEY FLEXIBLE DESKTOP COMPUTER KEYBOARD (BLACK)

Childrens Toy Shop > Computer > Keyboards and Mice
from: Feastronics


The keyboard is thinner than I expected, rolls into approx 7cm diameter without stressing the rubber. The space key is divided into two to prevent unresponsive button pushing. Lies flat on the desk. I am using this for shortcut keys in programs like blender, also typing this review with it. Not suitable for typing long documents but ideal for my needs, supplementing a laptop keyboard on the move with a full keyboard. Haven't remapped the keys yet but come on its these two @" and thats about it. If you get a white one you can redraw the symbols.

Saitek Eclipse II Keyboard (PC)

I do online typing work (as well as a part time job in London) and chose this keyboard for home as sometimes I work late and even with the light on low (as I hate bright lights when working on a computer) the keyboard is not always visible if I have to move my hand from the typing keys .. this keyboard is perfect with its back illumination which is why I ordered it but more than that, I found it is absolutely fantastic for a typing touch - light, fast and perfectly proportioned!! I am delighted with it .. just plugged it into the back USB port and off we went! Highly recommend .. best lighting is the red or purple for visiblity, however, the blue does look very special!!!

Labtec Media Wireless Desktop

Childrens Toy Shop > Computer > Keyboards and Mice
from: Labtec

August 28, 2007
I'm sure this is a good product, I've had good experience with Labtec in the past. The units do look sleek and easy to use, and I'm sure if you've got a desktop it will provide a good replacement for your current wired keyboard and mouse (for that price anyway).

BUT, I've just received this product from Amazon, and realised that the wireless receiver plugs into the computer by PS/2 connections. I had planned to connect my laptop to my HD telly and use the wireless desktop, but since my laptop (and most) only supports USB connections, its pretty useless to me.

If, like me, you don't have PS/2 connections, try a different keyboard, such as this almost identical one: (I wish I had)

TRUST TB-2100 WIRELESS TABLET

I bought my first trust graphics tablet (TB2100)from the super market I go to and after 1 week of using it , the connection between the pen and tablet kept disappearing so I contacted the trust technical support and recieved several emails to confirm the problem.

In the end I took it back and got a new one which I've only just used and is also not working.The program I use the graphics tablet for is manga studio and I must say that now I'm going to have to buy another tablet costing me more money!!

I even tried using the driver on the disk and one online for windows xp , and only just found out from previous reviews about this product that it only works with adobe programs .

So I suggest that before you by something make sure you look up ... Read More:
