Use this Klipsch ProMedia 3-piece speaker system to enjoy brilliant sound when playing games, listening to music or watching videos on your computer.

Okay, cons first. When I decided on these speakers while researching online, I thought they were much smaller than they are. When I went to check them out at Best Buy, they were much larger and heavier than I expected. Each speaker is 8.5" tall. That said, I still bought them and am very glad I did.
These speakers really have phenomenal sound. I bought them because I already owned a pair of Klipsch Image S4 headphones, and have always loved the sound of those. I consider myself a mid-level audiophile, and my musical tastes are based much more on audio quality than musical style. To test these speakers, I listened to each song on this list (among others), and found every song to be crystal clear: http://www.autoblog.com/2010/09/24/audio-engineer-lists-top-10-songs-to-test-a-car-stereo/
In case that link stops working, here's a list of the songs:
1. "Don't Know Why" - Norah Jones
2. "Diamonds and Rust" - Joan Baez
3. "No One" - Alicia Keys
4. "Hotel California" - The Eagles (I listened to both the album and live versions)
5. Boom Boom Pow" - The Black Eyed Peas
6. "Rock That Body" - The Black Eyed Peas
7. "Hide and Seek" - Imogen Heap
8. "He Mele No Lilo" - Lilo & Stitch
9. "Bird on a Wire" - Johnny Cash (I also like "I Hung My Head" on these speakers)
10. "Packt Like Sardines in a Crushd Tin Box" - Radiohead

What's great about it: Rich and powerful sound for all highs, mids, and lows.
What's not so great: Little bigger and heavier than I expected.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Type easier and more accurately with the height-adjustable HP Elite V2 wireless keyboard. It's compatible with many computers and tablets, and the 2.4 GHz wireless connectivity works from as far away as 30 feet. The keys of the HP Elite V2 wireless keyboard operate quietly, and prevent dust and dirt accumulation.

Windows alternative for Apple aluminum keyboard.

I've been searching forever for a Windows-based alternative for the wonderful Apple aluminum keyboard, and I've finally found it in this product. If you have the same goal, this is the keyboard for you. It's just as slim as the Apple keyboard, the keys feel exactly the same, and the key layout is built for Windows.
Other differences between this and the Apple keyboard are that it's wireless, which isn't an option with the Apple unless you didn't want the number pad. The Apple keyboard offers 2 USB ports underneath it, which this does not, because it's wireless.
The only other downside is that this keyboard uses AAA batteries, which I don't have around my house anymore, since almost nothing seems to use them these days.
What's great about it: Slim design, chiclet keys, strong wireless connectivity, easy setup.
What's not so great: A little "bendy" in the middle when you type hard.
I would recommend this to a friend!
