Belkin's 7 port Ultra-Slim Series USB 2.0 Hub is an easy way to increase number of devices that you can connect to your computer. It really is compact and slim, quite a change from bulky 4-port hubs I remember using not too long ago. In fact, it is so small that I've misplaced it twice! If you keep it in a black laptop bag or attaché case, it can be hard to see. The only thing keeping … more

My company purchased five iH-282 I-INC monitors from a 3rd party vendor recently for about $250.00 each. Man am I impressed! I'd never heard of I-INC and my expectations were fairly low. First off, the price point is amazing. These are "budget" monitors but are of a higher quality than many I've seen. Only one of them had a stuck green pixel near a corner - nothing that warrants … more
...it still can't take the place of a decent Wi-Fi card. I built my son a custom Windows based computer and we have it set up in our house about as far away as you can get from my wireless router (AirPort Extreme Base Station). Rather than buy a Wi-Fi card,I thought I'd save a little money and use this Stick Adapter since I already own one. Installation was easy, the computer was able to create … more

I own an older model PIXMA IP3000 that I've been very impressed with and the MG5220 doesn't change my opinion. If anything, I am even more impressed with its design, features and performance. Out of the box it is attractively designed and has a compact footprint. Installing the software and setting up a wireless connection on my home network was a snap with both my iMac and Windows … more
Those of you in the market for a large format scanner know that they can be much more expensive than their letter-sized counterparts. The selection is also limited, with a couple of options around two hundred dollars and the really good ones costing more than two grand. I needed to buy a scanner to replace an Epson 836XL that I had used to scan my wife's watercolor paintings. I was worried the … more
Installation was a breeze, it took less than 3 minutes to install. I am using it in a Windows 7 OS environment. Unlike most webcam installations, this one was up and running in no time. It has a user-friendly and a very easy to navigate interface/menu. High Definition is pretty much the norm for resolution qualities now-a-days. The Logitech C910 I consider is the "high-end" webcam for the … more
