I have this on a desktop with Win XP. This adapter goes through cycles of good to poor reception repeatedly. It will occasionally drop the connection. Whereas, my 2 laptops placed at the same location receives excellent signal constantly. Go figure.

Allow me to pile on to the mountain of positive reviews. First off, I researched this purchase quite a bit, and was swayed by the number of great reviews on Amazon. Gotta love the Internet! So I give this 5 STARS! It works very well, cleans up a lot of dirt, and it really does pick up LOTS of water so the carpet is just slightly damp, and not wet, when you’re done. Do a couple extra dry strokes! The “heated cleaning” feature routes the hot engine exhaust downward into the carpet – I’m sure this helps dry it a little more too than without that feature. Yes, the tank is “small” but it is a tradeoff – if you want a giant water tank then you have to maneuver a heavy beast around. I’d rather have something that is maneuverable and I will change the water a couple extra times. Its not like I’ll be cleaning carpets every day or every week.
My spouse was ready to throw away our expensive wool Pottery Barn throw rug that is 10 yrs old because it was “gross”. After 2 consecutive lashings with this Hoover Bad Boy (1 night, let dry, then again 2nd night) the carpet looks and feels new. Seriously. Actually better than new because its a little softer now. Hoover just saved me from having the spouse spend another gazillion dollars on a new rug.
I think if you research you’ll uncover these points but just keep in mind
1) there are SEVERAL VERSIONS of this machine, slightly different model numbers, at WalMart, Kohls, etc. The F5914-900 is the one with BOTH carpet attachments. (the Walmart one doesnt have the powered hand tool, the Kohls one is older and doesnt have the SpinScrub brushes underneath the machine, etc). I found that BestBuy and Menards carried the “real” 5914-900, but Amazon had the best price.
2) USE REAL carpet extractor shampoo as its low-sudsing and won’t leave a sticky residue in the carpet. Don’t cheap out and use a dash of Palmolive, and I wouldn’t even use Tide etc as some others suggest as I don’t think it will rinse out of the carpet in

Had some problems getting it working at first. However, tech support was very helpful. Don’t use the default “auto” for channel. Pick a specific channel. Much better performance and range than my previous solution.

Item shown is not what is shipped. Picture shows older model of USB-A11n with external antenna that uses the Ralink chipset RT2870/RT3070. New Sabrent model USB-A11n does not have external antenna and uses the Realtek chipset/driver. In my opinion, this is a step backwards. The Realtek driver/interface is not as polished as the Ralink, and the external antenna of the older model makes a difference in being able to connect to weak signals. This new model will suffice if your access point is only two or three rooms away, but if you’re trying to connect opposite ends of your house or office it might not work, depending on distance and obstructions, of course.

I am really impressed with my ipod touch 32 gb. It has plenty of memory for my needs and love the fun apps. I am also buying the Nike+ attachment to help track my workouts. Highly recommend buying a cool case to help protect your ipod. I also plug my ipod into my bluray player and enjoy music in 7.1 surround sound. Having owned a sony mp3 I am so happy I upgraded to apple ipod. Now I wonder why it took me so long. In my opinion worth every penny.

This book is truly incredible and has changed my outlook on life and has affected how I live day to day. From some of the most fundamental concepts to some of life’s most common questions this book has given me an opportunity to understand my place in the universe.

Normally, when writing a book review, I’d start off by saying something good about it, stick all the Debby Downer stuff in the middle, and then finish it off with another round of positivity. But now, thanks to Twilight, this pleasant writing routine I had allowed myself to fall into must be set aside. There is absolutely nothing good I can possibly say about this book. Nothing. So, I guess I get to skip to the moaning, ranting, and griping…
So, story plot in a nutshell: Some average girl goes to a new school, meets a hot guy, who turns out to be (gasp!) a vampire. She falls hopelessly in love with Hot Vampire Guy, and, oddly enough, he falls hopelessly in love with her. But there’s a ‘bad vampire’ after Average Girl (apparently Hot Vampire Guy is classified as a ‘good vampire’) who wants to eat her (this guy is my favorite character). So, Hot Vampire Guy must risk all to save her. Complications inevitably ensue. Hot Vampire Guy wins, and he and Average Girl ride off into the sunset together. The end. On with the criticism…
Let’s start with the protagonist: Bella. Bella is clumsy, bad at sports, and is constantly in danger of bodily harm. She is the quintessential damsel-in-perpetual-distress. Her awkwardness makes her easy to relate to, but other than that, Bella is practically nonexistent. She’s really just a prop–a flowerpot, or a decorative garden gnome– dumped in the middle of the story by the author just so Edward has something to obsess over. She has almost no personality–she’s as boring as a pet rock. Edward’s pet rock, to be precise. The only persona we can really assign to her is that of a whiney, snivelling, brat-faced little kid. She spends the entire novel moaning about how bad she is at sports, obsessing over how gorgeous Edward is, and generally wallowing in her own teenage angst.
Now for Edward… Let’s face it, girls, we are NEVER going to find an Edward Cullen. Anywhere. He’s perfect. He even sparkles. Seriously. In bright sunlight, ou

I loved the way the book was written, with chapters assigned back and forth between characters, and written in the style of that character. It really brings the book to life. There are better reviews than mine, just wanted to add another 5-star review. Highly recommended!
