Great performance-minded laptop

Tue, 23 May 2006 12:32:46 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - When I was looking for a laptop, I had very specific needs that seemed hard for nearly every manufacturer to meet. I was looking for a strong performers (a so-called desktop replacement) but I didn't want one of those giant 17" eight-pounders. Only...

ST Is An Excellent Discount Sport-Compact

Tue, 23 May 2006 12:20:16 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - I bought a 2005 Ford Focus ZX4 ST in the summer of '04, just as they became available. I've owned it now for nearly two years and nearly 40K miles. Generally, the car has been a pleasure to own. I've had some minor quality issues--the automatic door...

Decent Basic Radio

Tue, 23 May 2006 12:03:19 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - I bought this radio because I wanted to try out Sirius Satellite Radio but wasn't sure if I would stick with it. I'm hooked on the Sirius Radio but this receiver leaves a lot to be desired. It has got some positive features, though. It holds plenty...

Terrible getting better

Tue, 14 Aug 2001 04:02:34 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - Well, Folks!!! I've been living right here, smack dab in the middle of corn and finance businesses for nineteen years now. Yes, I grew up in Des Moines and am now a college student situated in Iowa City. A couples months ago I was travelling down...

Another shallow, action-packed Tim Burton Film

Fri, 10 Aug 2001 03:36:21 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - What do we expect from Tim Burton? I movie packed with action and plot twists, cliched dialogue, and a poorly-justified plead with humanity. Planet of the Apes delivered all of the things. Whiz-bang directors of the last twenty years worth of science...

A great flatscreen for a great price

Sun, 18 Mar 2001 06:34:00 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - I got this monitor as part of a Gateway computer system. My monitor varies from the Mitsubishi only in a few cosmetic differences.

I bought this monitor because I have owned a Sony Trinitron monitor int he past and knew I had to get something...

Finally, Microsoft gets it right

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - I have been running the last beta edition of Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional (this is semi-legal) for a few months now.Microsoft has finally combined the simple interface that was initiated with Windows 95 and the stability that has always been an...

Monsoon has done something great

Sat, 30 Dec 2000 05:07:53 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - I bought the MH-500 set just a few hours ago. As soon as I got them home, I set them up and it was time to test them out. I stuck in Tori Amos' "From the Choirgirl Hotel" (a great CD to test a new speaker set), closed my eyes and realized I...

Fragile Through And Through

Wed, 1 Nov 2000 21:00:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - What more apt and ironic name could this double album possibly have? Throughout the 23 tracks on this album, Trent Reznor (who is Nine Inch Nails) has created the perfect juxtaposition of loud and quiet, hard and soft, structured and chaotic. But to...

Only What You Need

Wed, 1 Nov 2000 20:30:06 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - I've owned a 95 Chevrolet Corsica for about a year now. I bought it from my father who owned it originally and maintained it impeccably. After I bought it, I realized just what it take to maintain this car as he did. The Corsica will not last forever...

Absolute Durability

Tue, 31 Oct 2000 23:16:45 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - I have owned Timex Ironman watches for five years now. In that time, I have yet to have one of them fail on me. If you're looking for a durable watch that will take every possible beating, this is your watch right here.

There is one catch to...

A Great Enthusiast Bike

Tue, 31 Oct 2000 22:58:20 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - I bought this bike a few years ago in anticipation for my first major bike ride, a trek across my home state of Iowa. Going into my local bike dealer, my first reaction was WOW...road bikes are quite expensive. This bike, however, was moderately priced...

Micron Transport TREK2: Good PC Anyone

Sun, 10 Sep 2000 22:17:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - Alright...I'm gonna tell you just what no one wants you to hear...This computer is an excellent PC. Micron has gotten a lot of trouble for their quality lately and the fact of the matter is, none of the fault lies in their hands. I've owned a Micron...

My Favorite Phone

Sat, 9 Sep 2000 23:35:49 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - I purchases this phone about three months ago and it quickly became my favorite cellular phone. Before I give its merits, I will disclaimer one thing. If you are one of those technophiles that is always on the hunt for a smaller and smaller phone, stop...

Fair CD player

Sat, 9 Sep 2000 23:25:56 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - A fair CD player, perhaps, but not the best you could buy. I must complement Sony on the sound quality that they are famed for. It certainly is the best sounding CD changer that I've ever owned, it just lacks some features. It would be nice to have...

Gene Wilder and Mel Brooks

Sat, 9 Sep 2000 23:06:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - A movie by Mel Brooks featuring Gene Wilder as a main character...need I say more. NO, but I will anyway. This is a wonderful movie displaying both the mature and immature sides of Mel Brooks' humor. The movie is about a broadway producer who with his...

Very Worth Seeing

Sat, 9 Sep 2000 22:59:31 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - I know...the general consensus is that this movie was not worth seeing. I am, however of the opposite mind set. I felt this movie was a worthwhile attempt to create a horror movie that was more than the usual jumpy scenes interlaced with characters...

Incredible Speaker

Sun, 21 May 2000 15:04:38 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Fartherfromgod - I must admit, I don't own this product. I have an older Infinity 15" Monitor speaker, similar to this one but older, and am so impressed with mine that I recommended the newer, improved series to many friends of mine. A couple went out and bought...
