Good Way to Establish Credit, but Watch Out

Mon, 21 Apr 2008 18:59:24 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - I have had Capital One credit cards for about 10 years and have only had one snafu which was my fault when it comes down to it. I had a card that I got when I had bad credit, and the interest rate was fairly high and it had a credit limit of $500. I...

LG VX9800 Cellular Phone: Good PDA phone alternative

Sun, 12 Nov 2006 06:01:09 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - I have owned a Pocket PC since they first came out. My current one is over 4 years old but still serviceable. I thought it would be cool to have a smartphone/PDA type device as a replacement. After countless hours of research and reading hundreds of user...

Happy with this shed

Sat, 16 Sep 2006 06:43:40 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - The local Home Depot charges $59 for delivery for this item and without a full size truck, it was necessary. They unloaded it with a forklift. I was a bit overwhelmed with the size of the two huge boxes, but there weren't too many pieces to take out and...

Happy even with the base model

Mon, 31 Oct 2005 02:07:16 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - I moved to the city for a new job and my Ford Taurus only got a shocking 15mpg in the city and it was very cumbersome to drive in traffic. I decided to look at the Ford Focus. I always thought the first sedans that came out were ugly, but the new styling...

Range of a small FRS

Wed, 26 Oct 2005 20:56:04 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - I wanted this radio to communicate from my work which is about 2.5 miles from my house. I figured if it got even a quarter of the stated 10 mile range thats fine. I could not believe it, the signal went out at 1/4 mile from my house! I have used FRS...

The Best Bang for Your Buck Out There!!

Fri, 20 Feb 2004 07:23:23 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - You simply cannot beat the cost/benefit ratio of building a system using the Athlon 2500+. With the right motherboard this chip can easily be overclocked to increase its performance at speeds of MUCH more expensive processors! I built a system for a...

Stable board, Great Features, Great Sound

Fri, 20 Feb 2004 07:12:28 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - I got this board after a bad experience with an Abit board that I ended up returning. I wish I would have gotten this one in the first place! There are some things about the layout that I do not care for (which is why I originally chose Abit), but it's...

Lot of Features, Lot of Headaches

Tue, 9 Dec 2003 18:43:56 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - I bought this board to build a whole upgraded system for myself. My old board was a cheapo ECS which never had any problems, but wasn't that thrillng either. I chose the Abit because of its overclocking reputation as well as features like SATA and RAID...

Got the need for speed? Here you go!

Tue, 9 Dec 2003 17:04:01 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - I finally broke down and got one of these when I was building a new computer for myself. I never thought I would be so impressed. After getting a faster processor, more RAM and a better video card I tried things out on my old 7200RPM hard drive. Yes...

Locking pliers, Excellent Quality

Wed, 30 May 2001 18:19:55 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - Kershaw has made some interesting and innovative knives in the past and this is their only multi-tool. It has some unique features that sets it apart from other brands. To be honest, I snatched this up because it was 50% off at a department store and...

Great phone for the price

Fri, 16 Mar 2001 00:43:38 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - This phone appears to be the same as the Motorola v2297. It comes with AT&Ts prepaid package. I got it on sale at a local store and it was only $19.95 after the $30 rebate offer. It is a great phone, especially for the price.

I do not use a cell...

Reliable and Cheap Transportation

Fri, 19 Jan 2001 19:16:22 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - The Ford Aspire came out in 1994 basically as a redesigned Festiva. Although this car is no Cadillac (or Taurus for that matter), it certainly seems a step up from the Festiva.I have been surprised at how reliable my 1994 Ford Aspire has been. After 6...

Compaq iPAQ H3650 Pocket PC: Move Over Palm Pilot

Fri, 15 Dec 2000 02:31:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - When I started looking into PDAs, I did not even know about the existence of the recent release of the Pocket PC platform. After doing some research, I knew that it was the type of device that I was looking for. Then it was decision making time: the HP...

Tefal 8743 Avante Toaster: Quality and Style

Sat, 28 Oct 2000 05:06:16 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - I received the T-Fal Avante Deluxe from my fiance who apparently was distraught over my old $12 toaster that barely worked. This model is a four-slicer. If your counter space is limited, then the four-slice model of the Avante is not recommended.. it is...

Nice looking, but for how long?

Sat, 28 Oct 2000 04:34:30 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - I bought the Wearever Freedom set to replace my old mismatched collection of pots and pans. I like the ergonomic design and materials of the handles and the black cherry color is beautiful. This is my first set of non-stick cookware and I love how easy...

Nice design, high maintenance

Sat, 28 Oct 2000 04:05:01 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - I couldn't resist the modern sleek design of the Cuisinart Grind and Brew when I saw it. My first thought when I looked at the model in the store was "this is so cool, but its going to be high maintenance" and I was right. The inside consists...

Very happy with online service

Sat, 28 Oct 2000 00:43:40 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - I have been very pleased with Wells Fargo's online services. I use Quicken for my finances and WF's electronic bank information is set up to work with it. I live in a large city, but the branch near where I live definitely is "small town"...

Great quality, still a little pricey

Sat, 28 Oct 2000 00:15:23 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - I finally got tired of my phone and caller ID unit cords becoming a tangled mess and decided to at last get a cordless phone. I had a couple of older models before, but the sound quality was so bad that I kept using regular phones. I was then trying to...

Fri, 27 Oct 2000 23:35:21 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - I got US West DSL when it first came out in this area (early 1999). At the time it was a long frustrating wait to actually get the service available, I had to wait a few months. After spending hours with trying to set up the hardware and software with...

USB Setup a Breeze

Fri, 27 Oct 2000 23:07:21 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Boscorocks - I was leery about buying a Visioneer after reading about problems with incompatibility and terrible customer service. However, the 8100 had all the features that I wanted for a decent price ($169 but the price has gone down recently). I needed something...
