I recommend downloading and running Reimage. It's a computer repair tool that has been proven to identify and fix many Windows problems with a high level of success.
I've used it in the past to identify and fix everything from blue screens (BSOD's), ActiveX errors, corrupt files and processes, dll/exe/sys errors, recover lost memory, Windows update problems, defragging, malware removal etc.
You can download it direct from this link http://downloadreimage.com/download.php. (This link will automatically start a download of Reimage that you can save to your computer.)
The fine folks over at Hardware Secrets are pretty well known for their excellent reviews of different hardware, including power supplies. They are one of the few sites that really knows how to test a power supply. There is MUCH more to it than hooking up a digital multimeter to a spare molex connector and then running an assortment of load/idle tests and recording the output from the multimeter. Most sites will not test the noise and ripple in a PSU (and "noise" here does not mean the sound from the fan, it means "line noise"; a decent metaphor would be "static"). I recently read a review where the testing uses only a voltmeter, and the reviewer states the power supply had a bit more ripple than he would like to see. :confused Without an oscilloscope, it is impossible to measure ripple, so it would appear that the reviewer is talking out his a** and has no idea what "ripple" really means or what it is. This review can be found here, the "ripple" comment is on page 5, on page 6 you'll see the PSU received a "Top Rank Award". However, Hardware Secrets reviewed this same power supply (review is here), and you'll see that it miserably failed the ripple/noise testing, and in fact the unit burned up when trying to draw the advertised 750w the unit is rated for. Yet the other reviewer gave it a "Top Rank Award". So- all ranting aside, do not trust any power supply review that doesn't include '... Read more
Hi,
Good report except that setting a voltmeter to AC and measuring a DC voltage will give you a reading of the AC component (Ripple) riding on the DC.

Any Vista Reviews? (Jan. 07 Reviews)
i read some last month on gaming pc mag. they said its very unstable, they also said it wasnt a finished product to the public, it was only a corp. business verison finished product..
so i need a clear view on vista, if its worth and good idea to switch to vista without major problems as the review mentioned.. probs they mentioned was driver issues, OS being unstable in general areas, ect..
Vista Ultimate RTM 64bit
I've found no instability issues but drivers support is lacking. The OS has not reached official release as of yet so I'm waiting patiently.
I recently bought a Canon Pixma MP160 based on a review on this site.I now wish to forward that review to a friend but I cannot find it using search, anyone any ideas please.
I've gone back through the reviews to the beginning of this year and the nearest was the MP460.

A compilation of AVG reviews
http://malwaretips.com/threads/compilation-of-recent-security-software-reviews.13350/
Hi All,
I created this thread as an FAQ for the release of the new AVG 8. I thought we could use this for any discussions or issues about the new release. Here is what is known so far:
1.) It is unknown as to whether or not AVG 7.5 users will be automatically updated to AVG 8, although a comment on the board said they didn't think an auto update pushed will be forced.
2.) It has been known to be buggy and slow according to some of the C-Net reviews. This could be the sign of a new release or hopefully not a bad omen of what is to come from a once-great company.
3.) There are 3 versions of AVG 8.0:
a.) AVG Anti-Virus 8.0 Commercial Version: This is a paid version that includes Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware, Resident Shield, Root Kit Remover Real Time Protection with a Link Scanner that scans sights before you go to them and a Link Search, that indicates the safety of a sight before you go to them similar to McAfee Sight Adviser.
b.) AVG Internet Security 8.0: A paid version with all the features of (a) plus a software firewall
c.) AVG Anti-Virus Free 8.0: The free version that includes Anti-Virus and Anti-Spyware scanning and the Link Search (Site Adviser clone)
Please indicate in this thread: (Discuss each that applies to you.)
1.) The version of AVG 8 you have installed.
2.) Any problems with the download or installation
3.) Any slowdown of your system.
4.) How different is the Free AVG 8 interface compared to the paid versions?
5.) Whether or not you use Link S... Read more
I am not sure yet whether or not this new format is good or bad. Log in is not remembering details, I can not find the "top 10" review section? (does it still exist?). Everything seems to be "squashed up" with a lot of wasted space. Possibly its one of those things that will "grow on you" with time, and become more clear as PCA "tweak" it?Maybe PCA should "revisit" this layout and make it a little more "user friendly" and a bit more clear as to where or how to find the sections that we know and love from the previous layout.

2 more repliesI'm thinking I rad in an earlier post in this thread, something about it, but just to re-hash. What's everyone thoughts about the new STARCRAFT? I
ve seen the trailers and reviews, I really liked the first 1, and BW, but I'm thinking the game is a lil' out dated. When it came out like 10-12 years ago, it was fantastic, but 12 years later.... I'm not so sure about it. I'm sure most all the real gamers out there have played the first one... so us being the consumers, I'd like to hear everyones thoughts.
Why people jsut follow the beautifull graphs of this video game.
Broodwar is and will be the best strategy game ever made, more than 7 years in World Cyber Games and still being the best.
Starcraft II make me cry, isn't like broodwar and never will be!

I can't find timely or even common Anti-Virus Reviews.
They used to be more common, more timely. In years past, it seemed there were dozens of sites offering tests and reviews, almost on a monthly basis, and certainly quarterly. Then, of course, there was the issue of validity, consumer trusting of those reviews, etc, but the sheer quantity of reviews gave credence to some products.
In the past year, however, I see fewer and fewer websites offering AV tests. Perhaps the perception of "everyone's doing it" led more and more reviewers to stop their own efforts?
Do you have a set of favorite AV review sites?
On a side note, a good many reviews seldom listed the useful feature of "Product offers downloadable ISO for a boot-up scan process." I greatly prefer the products that offer this, most of whom seem to do at least a monthly update of their ISO file. (It's not that I believe every Virus will be cured, but I am still old-school enough to believe that pre-boot 'cures' offer some cures that post-boot fixes can't.)
Not unless you want to buy, and change, your antivirus every month. The best changes and common sense and any decent anti-virus is all you need.
Avast, AVG, Panda Cloud for example are solid.

I've tried everything from a multiple-step process for removing malware from my computer (Windows Vista operating system), but the two versions (red and blue) of the Security System Protection Control Panel keep popping up. One says I have Abebot, the other says I have TrojanDownloader.XS; each directs me to a website, http://antispyware-reviews/biz/?wmid=(etc.), which tries to sell me software to fix. There is also a version that tries to get me to install PC-Fixit or some other program. The malware has also attached itself to the yellow triangle "click here to fix problem" icon.

Welcome to Major Geeks David!
Your forgot to acually attach your logs.
I've googled it and other than the one person here who has reviewed his 510, I've yet to find any reviews on the T510. Feedback anyone? If you have one I am especially interested in what you think of the keyboard? It is like a good traditional ThinkPad keyboard? Or is it soft and mushy in certain areas the same as the 500's are? Thanks
Hi wirelesslaptop,
here are some first impression and pictures by a German ThinkPad-Forum.de member:
Google translated text:
The Upper Notebook is a 14 "T61p 4:3, takes on the size, I believe almost nothing compared to the other 14" 4:3 most of the devices also had time in hand.
Link to post and pictures: T510 vs 14" T61p 4:3
Some short impressions:
- My goodness, the device is wide! - Processing is still very first cream, no creaks, no bends through - The display is very WHITE, and the color temperature slightly cooler here, thanks to LEDs, I think times - The new keyboard is awesome - Degrees, the fan is running, but it is hard to hear - ThinkLight works as it should do it, say it appears the keyboard is not in the eye
ive seen a few links/reviews of MSE and other anti-virus apps and what % were caught, etc...but cannot seem to find them.

READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide
I'm using Ad-Aware 2007 Plus for spyware, and NOD32 as anti-virus.
I just had viruses removed from my hard drive and Windows XP. The technician who helped me installed NOD32, instead of Avast which was installed before the successful virus attacks. My browser was also changed from IE 6 to Mozilla Foxfire, which the tech thinks is less susceptible to virus attacks.
My system runs well now. I looked at CNet Review to rate different antispyware products, and my Ad-Aware 2007 was rated last of ten products, so I don't really know who to believe.
Comments are welcome.
Did you purchase Ad-Aware 2007 Plus? If so, you might to supplement it (if not replace it) with Spy Sweeper by WebRoot. It's highly rated and well respected. Generally, people use multiple anti-spyware apps. When talking free apps, Ad-Aware (free edition), Spybot S&D, AVG anti-spyware, and one or two others are frequently mentioned.

I have been looking around for a good web site that has detailed reviews of webcams. I usually go to anandtech to read hardware reviews but they don't seem to have any reviews for webcams. When I did a google search there weren't any professional reviews - only reviews from online vendors. And the reviews that were there weren't specific.
I'm looking for a basic webcam for $30 - $40 with a decent picture. Can anyone recommend a model that they have? Is there a good place to read reviews for webcams? Thanks for the help.
did some reasearch myself and the ones with "good" picture quality goes for 49.99$ minimum; the 19.99-29.99 webcams have lackluster images and grainy quality + texture to em'. Look into Logitech + Creative (the ones above 40$) for some good products.

I have been infected with antispyware-reviews.biz. After reading all the threads on this piece of malware on major geeks, it seems that each infection is unique so removal based on another user's solution won't work. There are several files in the attached log that are clearly related to the infection but I thought I would get annointing from the experts before proceeding.

Hey all, as usual, I am pondering upgrading my system. Here are my current specs:
i7920, stock
6GB tri-channel 1333 RAM, 2GB 1333 RAM
ATI HD 5870
150 SATA 7200.?? HDD
850 Watt Corsair PSU
Windows 7 Home Premium 64x
My question is have any of you got a chance to try out any of the 1366 mobos featuring USB 3.0 and SATA GB/s ??
I'm wondering if I should wait to upgrade or what to do... I have no fundage as of now but in less than 2 months (or perhaps less than a month) I could easily come up with the required ca$h for the cheapest mobo that supports these which I saw on newegg...
Has anyone tried either of the features I mentioned? I've heard the SATA 6GB/s are ridiculous (but I was planning on getting a SSD... so... suggestions welcome)
This may be a controversial topic!
I am seeking advice on where the best product reviews for hardware can be found in print and on the web.
For print, to date I have been relying mostly on PC Magazine. I don't always agree with the fine points of their assessments, but I do trust their overall testing and reporting. Moreover, in all the years they have been publishing, I'm not aware of them being sued, at least successfully, over a biased product review. And since they give both the parameters as to how the test was done, and the means for one to repeat the test themselves, I consider that pretty solid. PC Week and InfoWorld come in as close seconds.
Are there better or more up-to-date print sources?
How about on the Web?

A good place to start would be <a href = "http://www.trade-n-sell.com">Trade-n-Sell.com</a> Check out the infozone under electronics and then hardware/software reviews. There is a lot of links there to review sites.

As these usually are not the one obstacle throughout the contract, and given that the phrases and must haves can alternate at any time, the client is enormously advised to be trained the complete file on the Divine Derma Cream stories web internet page earlier than agreeing to the free trial. The factors on this cream would even be necessary to some consumers, however it’s most important to admire the monetary ramifications of the trial and the cancellation interval. http://www.puravolantiaging.net/divine-derma-cream-reviews/
More repliesIs there any interest in the developers community for an online code review group? What I mean is, for those of us who work in small shops, it would be nice to have the code review process like larger shops do. Also, I like to work on some independent development projects at home (as most of us do I think) when the inspiration hits me (rare).
The only problem I can see with this is the theft of intellectual property by unscrupulous developers.
Comments please.

Can't say I don't agree with some of the reviewer's points on both categories, because I do.
Nevertheless interesting reading. Just hoped some 2013 versions were reviewed instead.
Thanks Biozfear for share,but I personally did not agree with this review and reason are many.2 of them which i point out here:

2...They give panda 10/10 in ease of use and that is just a joke

I have been running win 7 since december and I personally feel it substantially better than vista. Bugs in the early builds were video, raid, and some bios. by the time build 7100 came out most were resolved. If you gave us your computer specs we could tell you more.

Looking at possibly buying one of these but not sure about the i3-4005u series. I see from bench tests online that it is quite a bit slower than the "m" series, but will it be enough for standard office work/web browsing etc? I assume it will be but will I notice a huge difference in terms of responsiveness/speed between the i3-4005u and the i3-4000m?
I have tried to find some comparisons between the AMD and the new E66xx series of Intel processors but so far have been unable to find anything. Everything I have found is still discussing the Pentium D and older processors.

I am buying a computer system for gaming... but here's the problem. I went to two sites that were recommended to me (Cyberpower and Ibuypower) but before ordering, I checked out their customer reviews... seems they were really bad.
Now my question is where can I find out which site has the fewest problems? I know that mostly only people who have had problems will bother to post, so I'm trying to take that into account.
Is Cyberpower really as awful as the reviews would indicate? I had configured a great system there but the reviews said that MANY of their systems were dead on arrival. At least one review said they had replaced the chosen parts with cheap subsitutes. (specifically the mother board and chip)
Short of googling every site out there that sells systems...what can I do to be sure I am dealing with someone I can trust?
I'm interested in the MSI K7N2G motherboard as the basis of a new system I hope to build, and would be interested in any reviews,particularly around the onboard graphics which I have seen is just below a geforce4 mx440 spec.
would this board with 2 x matched 256M 333 memory, be able to provide the graphics to play my boys games, they are into gaming and have XBOX etc, they also have PCgames.
or must i get a graphics card and if so, which other motherboard should I get that does not have built in graphics?
I have also looked at the MSI 865PE-Neo2 LISR2 but this combo is expensive and starts to put the system outside my budget
You can get an MSI or ASUS motherboard for about $80~100 without onboard video. Then spend $75 for a Ti4200-64mb if you want to do some serious gaming.
The onboard 3D video on the NForce2 will play 2001 games and older pretty good. The Ti4200 will allow your kids to play UT2003, Unreal2 and Half Life 2 fairly good... without a lot of money.

What do you want? Wide screen? Flat panel? 100Hz? PnP? things like that. Talk to other people and get their recommendations. There are usually a few renouned brands that come to mind. I in NZ cant give you my opinion on the American market, but it depends on your needs of a TV. If your going home theatre, Id go flat panel wide screen 100Hz type screen. Philips and Panasonic are the best for that hre.. Sony is not far behind. The brand difference is so little these days. Get a demo at your local store. Youll see something youll like
Hello all,
I need help to understand who reviews Windows 8 app games ? My app titled "10-Up" has so far been featured by the Video Game Island from Australia and as a developer from Australia many of my contacts are from here. Much of the information from Microsoft is good but only gets you so far.
Any Windows 8 Developers out there have tips to reaching out to other markets?
Or if you're a user, does an app like mine appeal to you?
10-Up app for Windows in the Windows Store
I don't intend to spam my app but more so interested in other peoples experiences in a currently under developed market (but surely growing)
For interest sake, my app is based on a popular game played on trains where you combine 4 numbers to become 10. Now you can play it in an app environment against a timer and with combo's etc.
Thanks in advance !
Just to update for anyone reading, I managed to get it featured on an Australian game review website known as the Video Game Island.
I'm still in search for windows store specific ones, but perhaps there aren't many that are as popular as yet.
Does anyone know of any websites in the UK for reliable/honest ATX Case reviews.

Hi Folks, Does anyone know of any web sites which give reviews on TFT Monitors. I'm looking to buy one and would like some info on them.Thanks.
Why not try the consumer watch forum on this site. Or maybe one of us can help. Me being a first time user of TFT am pretty happy with it, the colours are much better, but the only downfall is the fixed resolution. Mine cannot go over 1024x768. Very space saving also.

Some interesting comments on the differences between Red Hat and Ubuntu:
Red Hat is committed to Enterprise Servers
Ubuntu is committed to the Desktop
Another big draw for the corporate crowd is the Wubi Windows installer, new to this release of Ubuntu, which allows users to download and test the Ubuntu desktop on their Windows PCs without repartitioning the hard drive. Shuttleworth said getting corporate end users comfortable with a new desktop is critical for its evolution.Click to expand...

Hi I'm an android user.
Planning to go for a windows phone.
I recently came across the Microsoft Lumia 535.
Just wanted to know a few reviews about it from people who are using this phone.
I've heard that there are few touch issues with it... any idea when it will be resolved in Chennai?
Viewers are sayin to go for hardware version 5 and not for version 3 what is the difference between both and how do I know when to buy the phone...
Do windows phones lag?
Feedback please
Hello, in my opinion you should go for Lumia 630. I saw on flipkart and 630 is cheaper than 530/535. Also had an better processor. Btw I'm not in India but looked up on flipkart for the info before I give my opinion. 530 has some screen issues but Microsoft is in the process of using an fix. Coming to hardware, there is no V3 or V5. Nokia/Microsoft releases handsets in number order (5xx,6xx,7xx,8xx,9xx,10xx and 15xx) where 9xx(920,925,928,930) I'd the flagship, 10xx(1020), is a camera phone and 15xx(1520) is an phablet. 7xx and 8xx are mid range phone and 5xx and 6xx are budget phone. Also none of the Windows phone lag and Windows phone OS is built for low end hardware and then scaled up depending the hardware. So you will never see lag on low end Windows phone like on Android. In conclusion, buy Nokia/Microsoft Lumia 630 if you can otherwise, buy Lumia 530/535. Good luck

Hi,
As AOL subscriber.....and never arbitrarily joining the subculture whose whole MO is dissing them......now retainiing (in my opinion) good 9.0SE optimized for free while still enjoying my current broadband.....I recently got mail re their new browser....including little video tour.
Now, I have few issues with IE6.....as long as its fully patched. Am afraid to download this new, unknown AOL thing should it kill my IE6 and if I hate it, require reinstallation of IE...and all my custom settings.
Only review I found is here: http://www.lastpodcast.net/2006/10/0...ride-a-review/
AM clueless about this thing and so wondering if anyone out there has tried it, can offer review, feedback, sharp opinions...like that.
Look forward to comments from anyone who has tried this thingy.

I loaded AOL Freeride on a computer for a customer two days ago. It did not mess with IE settings or cause any problems with the computer.
The only thing I did not like, was it added the the AOL security software back to this computer. This is the same package that let it get trashed by viruses to start with. I was able to replace the AV software with Avast and loaded some other antispyware software.
I am buying a computer system for gaming... but here's the problem. I went to the 2 sites you recommended (Cyberpower and Ibuypower) but before ordering, I checked out their customer reviews... seems they were really bad.
Now my question is where can I find out which site has the fewest problems? I know that mostly only people who have had problems will bother to post, so I'm trying to take that into account.
Is Cyberpower really as awful as the reviews would indicate? I had configured a great system there but the reviews said that MANY of their systems were dead on arrival. At least one review said they had replaced the chosen parts with cheap subsitutes. (specifically the mother board and chip)
Short of googling every site out there that sells systems...what can I do to be sure I am dealing with someone I can trust?
NewEgg is good, TigerDirect is OK but they can be a bit overpriced, and ZipZoomFly I hear is good.
7 more replieswhat are your reviews for the latest windows 8? how is it for operating?
More repliesAs expected the HD 7970 puts up a good showing. Earlier estimates of improvement of ~30% in gaming and ~50+% in compute tasks (over the HD 6970) seem pretty much spot on.
All in all a nice card - great power consumption, a little loud, and a nice bump in performance over the GTX 580 and HD 6970. Looks like a good overclocker with worthwhile gains over stock clocks. Very welcome after the HD 6950/6970's good OC potential / lacklustre OC performance.
Could have been priced better, but thats what you get for being the performance leader.

that's really, cool? I just searched up gpu and this game up! cool!
I have posted few reviews for the apps however I do not see them listed on the app page. Please can someone help me why this happens? I have posted using web as well as Lumia 925.
When I'm logged on I see my post for edits.
When I'm not logged in I fail to find my post (even after hours/a day)

It takes a little bit of time before they show up under the app's reviews section.
3 more repliesSplinter Cell(SC) and Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow(PT). I am really enjoying SC. The graphics are really nice as is the overall gameplay. All the missions require a mix of stealth and action with some missions require no kills whatsoever. You can opt to shoot your opponent or sneak up behind and knock him out. The AI in SC is limited however so it's possible to shoot someone and easily evade his buddies. The AI in PT is MUCH more advanced. On finding a body most often their first response is to call in backup. SC does not allow for multiplayer while even though PT does, it's not nearly as fun as the solo missions. Both these games are worth buying and for me, that's saying ALOT!Star Wars Battlefront. This is a mmfps along the lines of Battlefield 1942. At first I enjoyed it very much. It's always fun to put on a suit of StormTrooper armor and run around or play a droid. It has the same idea of BF 1942 in that you can take over neutral or enemy spawn points and you have only so many tickets (team deaths) before you lose. There are some vehicles you can drive/fly but I find the ground cars move too slow and the ships move much too fast. The maps tend to be just a bit too large to make the cars useful and the maps are too small to maneuver effectivly in a ship. As for the characters.. as fun as it is to be a StormTrooper or droid, any given character (4-5 choices depending on the te... Read more
Battlefield 1942 itself wasn't very exciting either, trees the size of a pencil and no obstacles to hide behind when two Shermans are storming in on your position. I still have to try Splinter Cell, if it's anything like Hitman, it's bound to be ace.
3 more repliesDoes anyone know of a good website for printer reviews? Specifically I'm looking for ink usage, cartridge price and styles, basically what it's like to live with. The last thing I want to do is spend the money on a printer and accidently buy an Epson (Epson owners will know what I mean buy that comment).Before anyone posts a Google search of "printer review", I know how to do that. I'm looking for recommended places to go, people you think are right.
The internet is full of reports about ink costs. At one lime it was said that lasers printers were the best choice for high volume printing. But the initial cost of a laser is still too much for most of us home users. Personally, I have given up after I be owner of three or four laser printers.Inkjet printers are now as cheap as the could ever be. But the cost of ink is an issue. The standard cartridges are overprices and are not full of ink.Using refills costs the cost down, but is a hassle when you get some bad refiles.Your run the rest of doing harm to the printer.Here is recent report about popular printers. http://www.inkfarm.com/Best-Printers-for-Saving-Ink--2011I think the report is fair. And it is no surprise that Kodak gets special attention.
14 more repliesWhat do you think about Hi-fi 3D Biostar "Z87x"? I have heard its new but i dont know if it is good? Does anybody have some experience with it??? Advantage/Disadvantage?I am totally thinking to try 1 of this type of motherboard for my gaming to outstand and see what would be the experience like but anyway if you have anything to give an advice for this please tell me some reviews.. I would be glad to hear it from your experties.
There are no real reviews out for the Biostar boards with this feature, but I would expect it to be much the same as previous boards with "Creative X-Fi" and similar - i.e. a cut down version of a good product making it no better than others, or in fact the same product with some fancy drivers and a new interface, which is still no better than others.Onboard sound is better than it used to be but still, IMO, no match for a good dedicated sound card. Sound cards aren't exactly pricy, the Xonar DG or DGX starts from less than ?20 and is miles better than onboard.
12 more repliesI am looking for some reviews of the Cisco PIX 501 firewall. The reviews I need have to come from a credible sources, so the the reviews posted by users on web sites do me no good (othrwise my job would be a bit easier).
I have tryed the usual (google, computer world, network world, Cnet, etc), but so far I have come up with nothing useful!
I appreciate the help!
Reviews like that are probably going to pretty hard to find. Your best bet is probably going to be looking at a round-up of enterprise/smb-class firewalls and getting data about the PIX from there. It specifically has to be a 501? There are little differences between the 501 and other PIX units running 6.x code other than hardware and license limitations, and you dont need a "review" to figure that out.
Is this for a university class?
Here's what I found on google, seems more like a sales pitch than an honest review:
http://techrepublic.com.com/5100-1035_11-1047875.html
I know you said you couldn't do it...but I could answer almost anything about the 501 (and be honest about it). If you are allowed to do an interview let me know and I can give you my credentials. The 501 is a good unit, but it has its limitations.

What you guys think about Malwarebytes Antimalware? I need as many review as i can and see if i can install it on my laptop, im still not sure and i am currently looking for reviews on google as of now...
It is the best complement to your anti virus program. Without it you are still wide open and susceptible to attacks the fact that it's free is amazing but the fact that the Pro version is so cheap and lifetime makes not having it idiocy!
4 more repliesHi everyone
I saw this program called TuneUp Utilities. If anyone use it and can give me some review ecause I could be considering it for my mini laptop. It says it can improve Battery life and performance.
TY and have a good day.
Most techies agree that these types of programs only lighten your wallet and are not needed. "Tune up", "repair" "registry cleaner" "speed up PC" or whatever you want to call them are in this category.

This is my personal review. For this post, ignore that my forum name is registered as "Lenovo Staff".
I have been using T550 exclusively for the last 2 weeks. My previous system was T520. I can upgrade to any ThinkPad I want at any time. I skipped T530 because I didn't think it was enough of an upgrade from T520 to justify the hassle of moving systems. I skipped T540p because I am a trackpoint user and the buttonless model didn't meet my needs. When I heard that T550 was bringing back trackpoint buttons, and it would be using Intel broadwell platform, I knew right away that I wanted this model.
This is my first system using the 6-row keyboard. At first I was worried I would not like the number pad which shifts the trackpoint off-center. But after using it for 2 weeks, I find that I actually prefer it. The off-center trackpoint doesn't bother me a bit, and I actually like the dedicated calc button where I can bring up calculator and immediately start using it with the dedicated number pad. I do wish that T550 still had dedicated volume/mute buttons (like T520) but this is the only thing I miss about my old system.
The system runs cool, and when doing standard office tasks (Outlook, Lync, web, etc) the fan never runs. With more demanding tasks, such as Visual Studio, Lightroom, etc the fan will come on but it is not annoying.

Hi, in the past I have tried Glasswire and I find it very informative and easy to use. However my device was not working right at that time and while Glasswire told me some interesting things, I wonder if it was not the best choice (and if there might be something that gives information in as accessible a format, but without as many bugs).
Some users claim it unmounts stuff (I was having trouble with my firewall at the time seeming to not work at all) and causes other problems.

Some of these reviews are not brilliantly new, so maybe there have been fixes meantime.
I would like to buy the HP Pavilion 15-au119na and the ony review I can find criticises it harshly for being slow. Is this reliable or where can I find other reviews? HP shop is offering gold and silver only. Is there an equivalent machine in black? And with a heavier shell? What kind is the ssd - eg PCl ? SATA? Thanks

It is not Dual band card.Slowness may be due to 2.5 inch SATA HDD.About colour we've no idea. This is a public forum where all members helping others are end users like you.
