Appears to me to be a good clean product shot. I like the angle you chose. About the only thing I'd suggest (and pineapple's suggestions are the ones you should go with anyway) is to "whiten" the white a bit more - seems a bit bluish cast to me.

I'll make your 7th comment so that one out of three of your predictions, at least, comes true. You would have done much better strongly backlighting the NIC - at least some IC boards have translucent areas which glow nicely with backlight. Failing that, a mirror would help with a screen backlighting with some sort of binary digital motif bokeh and some directional lighting on the top of the NIC. Value for money? I have played around with various MBs and IC boards to reasonably profitable effect.

Nice job Darren. I thought you did a fine job with this one. It looks just like a picture in a geek magazine.

From the challenge: Title your image with your chosen acronym, and let your image explain what the letters represent!

As such you shouldn't put in your title what the letters mean. Thats what the picture was supposed to do.
