very good, and good value when on sale

was looking for a wireless keyboard for a new home theater pc (htpc) I built. I already have several logitech products; all good.
I saw this combo; did not really need another basic wireless mouse (had one) but thought that I would get the combo based upon the reviews of the keyboard - very glad that I did.
keyboard is full size, nice feel to the keys. a little different than a 'standard' keyboard, but not different in a bad way. Thin and light weight in a good way. overall, a nice keyboard (in general, as a keyboard) and double nice in that it is wireless.
separate media buttons are nice for volume and playback.

mouse is surprisingly good - nice feel in the hand and very precise accuracy. but, I wish it had the browser page forward, page back buttons. will have to get one with that feature myself some day, but for now this mouse is good enough for the htpc and basic use.
plug and play operation.
absolutely no connection issues, or keyboard or mouse lag, from about 15 feet away.

Excellent sound; great PC upgrade

I am thrilled with it.

This system is high quality and is an incredible value (especially if you get it on sale).
I have a Klipsch home theater setup (over $3,000), so I was familiar with the brand name. I did a lot of research and found that the Promedia 2.1 was highly regarded. So, I bought it at Bestbuy when it was on sale.
Same crisp clear sound quality as my high end home theater Klipsch - across the range from lows to mids to highs. Also, as much, or as little, bass as you want - easily controlled.
The controls on the one speaker are very convenient.
These speakers, since they are powered, are so powerful that even cranked up to only 20 percent (on my PC) they can rock an entire side of the house.
I listen to music and play games on my pc - sound details in both are excellent.
Very highly recommended. I would buy another set in a second.
What's great about it: everything
What's not so great: nothing

works, but no real boost for me

Bought this for two reasons:
1. to stop paying a $5 a month lease charge for a Comcast supplied cable modem (duh!; I should have done that long ago...)
2. try to getter a better download speed with a docsis 3.0 cable modem - old model was a SB5101 at docsis 2.0. I know bandwidth is based upon what you are paying for, but you never know - I already get more than I paid for...maybe I would get a little more with a newer docsis 3.0 cable modem.
Well, ran speeedtest before and after and no big change. Again, I thought 'maybe' the docsis 3.0 might get me something, but in my situation it did not. Regardles, I can stop paying Comcast $5 a month for a 5+ year old cable modem, and that is good (if only on principle). I also have the correct 'docsis 3.0 cable modem foundation' if I ever want to upgrade my bandwidth.
In general, nice docsis 3.0 modem if you need one. Your download mileage might vary - depending upon what modem you are coming from. For me it was a draw.
No regrets.
(An aside: trying to get someone with a brain at Comcast to actually help me and make the change on my behalf took several IM chats, phonecalls, etc. - and took me 'around the world' - before I wound up with some net tech in the US who had it working within 2 minutes - but of course, that was not a cable modem issue but a Cable Supplier off-shoring one.)
What's great about it: works
What's not so great: could/should be cheaper
I would recommend this to a friend!
