Advantages: value for money, works well, good for backups Disadvantages: Not the fastest on the block
...There are some very fast CD burners on the market although they're mainly being overtaken by DVD burners which aren't much more expensive these days. The LGGCE-8160B is a couple of years old now and used to sell at PC World for £69 but can be picked up cheaply on eBay these days.
The box contains the bare drive which sports 16x CD-R writing, 10x CD-RW writing and 40x reading as well as all the usual IDE cables, screws and sound card leads. The supplied software is Roxio CD Creator version 5 which is the latest version although not the full 'Platinum' style. You can still burn almost any type of CD although some of the more esoteric features such as vinyl restoration, and Video-CD creation are missing. You can of course use 3rd party software or upgrade to the full version of CD Creator 5 Platinum. A bonus is a good pair of manuals...

...***MY EXPERIENCE. [5/5]***
I bought this Writer around 6 months ago for £30 through a close friend of mine. Earlier i had a Creative Infra 52X CD ROM ( i can't recall the model ) which was quite comfortable as it had a remote & its reading quality was very good, But it was EXTREMELY sensitive to slightly scratched CD's. I also needed a writer that could read scratched CD's as well & ....TARA RARA.........I came across the LGGCE 8520B CD/RW. Till date i haven't had any problem at all with the job this baby has done for me.
***READ QUALITY & SPEED. [5/5]***
My creative earlier used to take about 12 Mins to read a 700MB CD on an average. Where as the LGGCE 8520B takes around 4 Mins to read a 700MB CD with full data. And what more this can read most of the scratched CD's i have used till date [ Almost 90% ]. That solves my...

Advantages: Great design and performance Disadvantages: None
...LG M227WD comes up with 22" Wide format monitor TV. It is designed to let users enjoy simple and convenient access to many Audio Video / TV devices such as a DVD Player, VCR, Video game console, camcorder and many more. The design is compact, sleek and slender and the performance quality is, in my opinion, above average.
The vendor claims that the two built-in HDMIs, digital video and audio signals can be processed with no distortion. The better one is that the two AV home appliances can be connected at the same time. This monitor is also equipped with
a Stereo 3W x 2 Multimedia Speaker. With all this features and functionalities, LG M227WD is offered at about £190.
To sum up, LG M227WD offers great performance. It's a bit expensive but in my opinion it's still affordable....
