Bamboo (Small) Pen Tablet with Pen Only

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > PCHardware
from: Wacom


I have gone through tons of drawing tablets over the last few years, and they have ALL led to disappointment. I had always thought about getting a Wacom tablet because of its rave reviews, but I shyed away from it due to the higher price tag. Well - the addage is true: "You get what you pay for."

The Wacom Bamboo (small) is just a few bucks more than your generic drawing tablets, but it is EXCELLENT! It is very responsive, comfortable to use, and easy to install. I use it extensively with my graphics and animation applications, and it makes everything easier.

Don't be discouraged by the small size of the tablet. It basically makes the tablet space a compressed version of your screen, so the entire screen is virtually ... Read More:

SanDisk 8 GB Extreme III CF Card SDCFX3-008G-A31 (Retail Package)

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > PCHardware
from: SanDisk


I just got back from Kenya where I was shooting photos for my work and also took a lot of personal photos while on a safari. This card was great! I didn't have any problems and never had to wait for the card to catch up to me. I took nearly 800 photos in RAW without having to fumble around swapping cards while bouncing along in the Maasai Mara. I highly recommend this card.

Acer Aspire One 8.9-Inch Mini Laptop (1.6 GHz Intel Atom N270 Processor, 1 GB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive, XP Home, 6 Cell Battery) Black

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > PCHardware
from: Acer


This has the makings of a nightmare, but I'm going to give everybody some time and the benefit of the doubt. I ordered the Acer Aspire One through Amazon this afternoon. The vendor was ANTOnline. By this evening, I received an e-mail from ANTOline saying they were unable to deliver to the address entered at order placement. ???!!! No other information except to say they had instructed Amazon to cancel my order. They couldn't deliver???? The product hadn't even left the warehouse!!! I contacted Amazon, speaking to a real human being. However, the connection sounded like a bad cell phone connection, and the young woman to whom I spoke never quite got what I was trying to tell her. Long story short - when I received Amazon's e-mail informing me ... Read More:

Linksys WRT54G Wireless-G Router

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > PCHardware
from: Linksys


I owned this unit for slightly under a year (October 2007 - July 2008) and it worked pretty well as far as range and strength of the signal are concerned.

Wireless died July 2008 and after several calls to different numbers, Cisco customer service asked that I pay an additional $30 for a software upgrade on an item that was supposed to be under warranty.

Buyer beware!! This is my only experience with CISCO and my last (if I can help it).

Seagate FreeAgent 500 GB 3.5-Inch USB 2.0 Hard Drive ST305004FDA1E1-RK

Childrens Toy Shop > PC Hardware > PCHardware
from: Seagate


I have always had good luck with Seagate drives but the Freeagent series uses a unique usb cable that makes it essential that you keep the cable 'glued' to the drive lest you get it mixed with your other cables. Neither the power supply nor the cable has any markings to indicate they are Seagate and therefore, while I can pull out any usb cable to connect any of my other usb drives, this is not the case with this line of Seagate drives. Why they would design a product to use a non standard cable and then make replacing that cable almost impossible is beyond me. I really can't say how well the drive functions because I have no usb cable to connect it to the computer and no way of getting one. I have checked their website only to be met with more ...
