Driving Dream - well, almost

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - *** WARNING: This opinion may be a bit biased since I've only driven Camrys as a primary vehicle of transportation my entire life *** :)

Update: Added another pro - radio antenna

This is my first car as a working man, and I do have...

A game babies would be bored with...seriously

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - The first thing that appealed to me about Dark Cloud was its close resemblance to Nintendo's Zelda (duh, like you didn't know that). I was a huge fan of the original series and still am a diehard fan of the new ones that Nintendo has come out with. But...

Don't let my long list of cons intimidate you...see why

Brother's Restaurant

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - Hmmm, seems like I'm writing more and more restaurant opinions every day. And to think that I joined Epinions with the thought of just writing tech-opinions. Anyway, on with the opinion! :)

Just as a note, each of my restaurant opinions is...

Ashford.com: Don't be scared of their prices!

Tue, 22 May 2001 16:36:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - I really don't understand why the majority of the reviews do not recommend Ashford. For me, there has been nothing but near perfect experiences. If you read on, you'll be convinced to AT LEAST give them a chance :)

I was in search for a...

Stick with what they're known for...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - Ok, time for a little ranting: Epinions is starting to get on my nerves. They never have the thing I want to write about or the EXACT location of the place I want to write about. Bertucci's Brick Oven Pizzeria is also located in Maryland and I'm sure...

Don't judge this book by its cover...

Tue, 10 Apr 2001 02:03:26 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - So, I went to Atlantic City this past weekend (during Passover) with five friends to make some money - obviously. We couldn't get a room at the Flagship like last time we came down, so we had to settle for the Tropicana (I wanted to write an opinion on...

A Must-Visit for everyone!

Fri, 30 Mar 2001 03:08:35 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - First, keep in mind that I'm not a local of South Beach or even Miami. I walked by it numerous times during Spring Break, but only ate there once. Even with just one visit, however, I will always remember it for the following reasons:

Is Hopkins worth the money? Depends on how you measure it...

Thu, 1 Mar 2001 22:13:03 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - What are the two most important things you're looking for in a college? Simple. Academics for knowledge and social life for memories. But, does Hopkins provide both of these to the extent you're looking for? Judge for yourself...

A VHS-must, but a DVD no-no! Gasp!

Wed, 28 Feb 2001 03:27:46 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - First, I'm not going to talk much about the movie itself because I'm sure most of the other opinions do just that. Wonder what I could talk about, then? Read on.

Movie-related opinion part

For clarification, I put Costner as a pro...

PPP - Panasonic Paradise Phone

Fri, 16 Feb 2001 18:58:04 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - I bought this phone last year when I moved into my new apartment off campus. At the time, I was only looking for the following features:

1) Cordless - in the technology age that we're in now, why wouldn't you get a cordless? The price...

"Des ah guhweat ooveye" - Gypsy slang for "Is a great movie"

Sun, 21 Jan 2001 21:08:56 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - Sorry for the title, but that was just my version of how Brad Pitt and the other Gypsies would say "Is a great movie" :D

First, I'm getting a little "annoyed" with people that make a connection between "Snatch" and "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking...

Sony MDR CD770 Ear-cup Headphones: Best bang for the buck!

Sun, 21 Jan 2001 17:33:09 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - Like everyone who's in the market for a pair of headphones, I wanted one that provided comfort and high quality sound. But it also had to be sturdy, durable, and only provide sound to those who wore it; and not to anyone who happened to be within...

Iomega Zip USB Drive: To zip or not to zip? Eh, it depends...

Fri, 19 Jan 2001 22:42:01 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - Are you constantly saving files onto floppy disks and bringing that ugly disk-carrying box back and forth between work/school/friend's place and home? If you answered no, then there's no reason you should read this opinion - you won't need this...

Everglide Attack Pad: Glide your way to better mouse control...

Fri, 19 Jan 2001 21:35:53 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - Ok, I know what you're thinking: "Why would you spend $16.95 for a mouse pad?" First I answer with this: "I didn't, I spent $20 for two mouse pads :)" How you ask? It's simple. If you buy these mouse pads in bulk (i.e. 50 or more), then you get a...

The On-line shoppers' dream! - well, not so much anymore

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - ******* Start Update - Feb 25 '02 *******

This card isn't the best card out there anymore. Although Buy.com has kept their low prices, they've taken away a lot of things that made them #1 over the years:

1. No more customer...

Zelda is great, but deja vu isn't...

Thu, 18 Jan 2001 19:54:07 GMT
rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - I've been a big fan of the Zelda series ever since it first came out for regular Nintendo. I have yet to play a Zelda game that I didn't enjoy, and this one keeps it up.

The worlds of Zelda: Majora's Mask are big and plentiful - many places...

Hi-Val DVD ROM: Pioneer 105S - Follow the hype!

Thu, 18 Jan 2001 18:10:56 GMT
rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - As I said in my 303S review, these DVD-ROMs are manufactured by Pioneer - they are repackaged and sold by HI-VAL.

Unlike its older brother - the 303S - the Pioneer 105S actually lives up to the name Pioneer sets for itself. After being fed up...

Hi-Val DVD ROM 6X IDE: Pioneer 303S - Don't get caught up in the hype

Thu, 18 Jan 2001 17:41:28 GMT
rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - Before I begin, I apologize for writing a review about the SCSI version of this drive, but Epinions doesn't have a separate review for it.

First of all, these DVD-ROMs are of Pioneer make - they are simply repackaged and sold by HI-VAL...

One major flaw short from flawless...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - When it comes to something as important and sensitive as your eyes, you need to take care of them with extreme care. It's not like you're shopping for shoes where it doesn't matter what kind of shoe you buy - just as long as it fits. That's why I chose...

Almost perfect...

Tue, 25 Apr 2000 10:56:43 GMT
rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - I got this burner for a really good price, so it started off well...got it for about $160 I think. Dont' remember exactly. Anyways, setting it up wasn't too bad...just a jumper switch here, a flip there, and boom everything was set up. Getting the...

HOLY COW!!!!

Sat, 22 Apr 2000 15:52:49 GMT
rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - I had the link to the specs, but Sony took this model off their site (which has HORRIBLE searching, btw).

First, I have to say that I have barely explored the options of the mother of a receiver just because I haven't had too much time on my...

Simply wow...

Sat, 22 Apr 2000 15:24:51 GMT
rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - I'll keep this one pretty brief. The graphics of this amazing card is awesome! Very smooth and such. Gives quake 3 and such a new reason to play. Only thing I wish was that it came with a TV-IN like it's younger brother the 3500. Well, that's why...

Too good to be true!!!

Fri, 21 Apr 2000 20:34:10 GMT
rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Chewy - I bought his about 2-3 months ago, but only started to use it recently. It is REALLY easy to use and understand that any beginner (even myself!) can learn to use it in 10 minutes. Even connecting to your computer to download (with the manuals and...
