I bought almost a year ago, on christmas eve for my mother. The player stutters sometimes due to heat, under the drive. Make sure you lift it up, to allow proper airflow.

As far as I know, it will not currently play Verbatim LTH discs. It will however play the regular garden variety BD-R. Despite the documentation stating BD-RE only. BD-R discs will play :D

Ive never used the LAN capability. Id like to! I will be in a few months, to allow netflix streaming.

A must have for the enthusiast! Supports multiple configurations, keeps things very cool. And is a beast of a tower. I love beastly towers LOL! Warning! Could be heavy to SOME people :p

Best board I've ever bought. This board and the PhenomII are like a dream! I DONT regret buying it. Though it may be discontinued for a different layout of sata ports.

money for power ratio is EXCELLENT. Despite what some people say, its not that far behind the i7! Everything I throw at it, it handles with ease! Upgraded from 5200 athlon, EXTREMELY impressed! Overclocked to 3.5 easily. I hear 4 is possible. I BELIEVE IT!

Very good upgrade from an athlon thunderbird (1.4ghz). There are much better processors now. Makes for a VERY powerfull media center. in 1.5 yrs, not one hiccup. Infact, from 6yrs with amd, NEVER a problem. Will encode video rapidly (pending on compression). Though quads, are EXTREMELY much better.

Runs EXTREMELY well! Transfer speeds to AAKS drive are in excess of 95-105kbs! Ive been told its as fast as the Veloci. Its VERY quiet, LOTS of space, well worth every penny. Will be buying another, or more. BUY IT!!!

Very smooth machine with my configuration. Both XP and windows 7 running WELL! Only 2 sata ports. But price/value is very good for somebody just wanting to play a few games, browse the web, SOME upgradeability.

well... It looks like a pretty nice program. In that i mean, Lots of options, aspect, container(File Type), Codecs(ALOT of them). I am somewhat green to the encoding world. But am quite intrigued by how much a video file can be compressed while still being lossless to the human eye!!! I am running the latest version of AVG(grisoft) and NO red flags came up. Perhaps they fixed that bug. Either SUPER or AVG. I even scanned the finished installed directory. Well... off to encoding. At this point i recommend this software to anybody with atleast some encoding skills. Not as user friendly as one might think. A newbie MIGHT be intimidated by the looks of the software!! I rated this software good, but... it could go either direction in a week. We'll see.
