Review of Dell Dimension E520 by iceshady

Advantages: Great Value, good looks
Disadvantages: Dell Bios - Basically Locks any tweaking options! Awful keyboard and mouse! No FireWire as Standard.

...The excellent value Dell Dimension E520 system is built around the Intel Pentium D processors, they may be a bit old to date but even so, they offer the new Intel ViiV technology to provide you with an excellent media experience! Despite the lack of AMD processors, Dell have come out shining with the E520 - with at least 1GB of PC2-4200 DDR2 memory, The excellent value Dell Dimension E520 system is built around the Intel Pentium D processors, they may be a bit old to date but even so, they offer the new Intel ViiV technology to provide you with an excellent media experience!

Good overall TFT
Review of Hansol 520 F by mickee

Advantages: Small Form Factor, clear resolution at 1024X768
Disadvantages: 1024X768 is max resolution.

...The Hansol H520, I have had for about 3 years. It coninues to perform quite well. Very clear and responds well to clear type fonts. Due to growing desktop area needed, the H520 is limited to 1024X768 Resolution. It is just 2 small for desktop use these days. Forget if you need the resolution at 800X600, as it is optimized only for the 1024X768. I would recommend that you move into the 17" TFT's for better area. The controls are easy to use and I would recommend this monitor only to people with fairly good eyesight. There are times, though when the monitor is slow to respond from the native resolution to say, a screensaver at 800X600. Otherwise, The Hansol H520 is a good monitor.... Read review

Blue cathodes- cold
Review of StarTech.com Mutant Mods' Blue Cold Cathode Kit by coopsta133

Advantages: Cold, Stable, no flickering,cheap
Disadvantages: none

...This is a lovely lighting kit I used to illuminate the inside of my computer case. It makes a nice mod for a computer and is very simple to do. (Go on RICHADA..."Bling" :-) if you must). Lighting kits can be picked up for under a fiver on a website like Ebuyer.com. I chose blue to go along with my black computer case. These run off a standard 12V four pronged connector cable. SETUP Installing cathodes has got to be one of the easiest and very effective mods to do to a computer. Step 1) Open your case and locate a suitable spot along the other back side/top for it to go. Bottom may also be used but not recommended if you are trying to hide it. 2) Stick on using double-sided sticky tape- most lighting kits come with this. 3) Connect an available 4 pronged connector into it. 4) Turn on your computer and admire :) See it is very, very...
