eBay: Expensive, complicated

Wed, 28 Apr 2004 18:46:45 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - I've tried several auction sites, and Ebay, hands down is the worst. First off, you have to realize that Ebay is filled with "EBayers", or professional buyers and sellers who know all of the ins and outs of this esoteric site. To them, it's easy. The...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - I own a business that does a brisk trade in a small town. After several fiascos with Bank of America not being able to do basic deposits correctly, I tried RBC Centura. Well, After about a year, RBC Centura does handle deposits correctly. That's about...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - I opened a store in October. In August I started researching POS (Point of Sale) systems. I own a traditional retail store. I knew from the beginning that I needed something to track inventory, and something to help with checkout. I knew that I did...

Sprint Mobile Phone Service in Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill: All your communication in one phone

Tue, 19 Sep 2000 16:04:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - I was very skeptical of cell phones. I never wanted one. I bought my first phone and started Sprint service about a year ago, when I started working out of my state. I got Sprint because of good prices, and excellent coverage. I haven't been...

Great value

Mon, 5 Jun 2000 21:33:18 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - The Montesino is a cigar you may not have heard of. It's not marketed as heavily as say, a Macanudo or Cohiba. However, it's a great cigar.

It's made by the great folks at Arturo Fuente, so you get a great cigar, but at a fraction of the price...

E*TRADE: Good for long term investors, not so good for speculators

Tue, 16 May 2000 09:37:01 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - Overall, E*Trade is not a bad service. They are reasonably priced, and they offer a lot of features. E*Trade offers certain features that other on-line brokerages don't offer. They allow trading of mutual funds, bonds, and options.

As far...

Lots of bang for the buck!

Wed, 10 May 2000 13:57:36 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - This is a great bike. It's a very good value for the money. It's one of the cheapest 225 cc dirt bikes that you can get for $3000, first off. Considering that most motocross 225-250cc bikes start around $7,000, this bike is a great value!

Yahoo! Messenger: Perfectly integrates with their other products!

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 01:00:02 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - The Yahoo Messenger is great. It has a ton of features, and works very well. I only started using it a week ago, but already I'm hooked on this little tool.

First off, Yahoo Messenger works! It runs in the system tray (the lower right hand...

Wow! Change the way you drive!

Mon, 24 Jan 2000 23:54:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - Wow! Once you try an in-car CD changer like the Alpine, you will never want to drive without one again! Any in-car CD changer is great. No more switching CD's in heavy traffic. No more fumbling for lost CD's on the floor and under the seat. Instead,...

Yahoo! Mail: The most complete free email available.

Thu, 20 Jan 2000 01:36:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - Yahoo's free email is an excellent service. It offers a ton of features that most email services don't offer:

The calendar. It offers a calendar that looks like a calendar, and is easy to use. It can be set up to send you reminders if need...

Solid, reliable airline

Tue, 18 Jan 2000 13:58:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - First off, I should mention that I'm a web developer, so I often fly to clients. Sometimes, I even fly every week to a client's location for months at a time.

US Airways has been a solid airline in all of my experience with them. They have...

Madison: Hard to describe, even harder to put down

Mon, 17 Jan 2000 00:39:49 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - It's hard to put your finger on exactly what Madison is all about. It has interviews. It has articles on travel. It has articles on art. It has articles on movies. But I think that the magazine can be ambiguously summed up with the word: style...

Not your typical war movie

Sat, 15 Jan 2000 01:01:30 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - Based loosely on the book, Heart of Darkness, by Joseph Conrad, Apocalypse Now is not your typical war movie. It's the story of a man, who is already in a surreal place and time (the Vietnam War), who travels to a reality that most people can't even...

Netscape is a Nightmare for developers!

Sat, 15 Jan 2000 00:00:23 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - Well, let me start by saying that this review is from the viewpoint of a web developer. I write web pages (applications, really) at least 8 and usually more hours every day. And during most of that time, I have many copies of many different browsers...

Rock with a soul

Fri, 14 Jan 2000 23:31:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - Well, this is Pearl Jam. That, in and of itself should say a lot about this CD. Pearl Jam was arguably one of the most influential bands on the 1990's. Not only was their music meaningful and timely, but it is classic rock, as well. Vitalogy is no...

Change your listening habits forever!

Fri, 31 Dec 1999 02:37:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - Wow! I really needed this! The very fact that I have a 300 disc changer of any kind is a big change. Finally, I can have all of my CD's in one place, and I don't have to change them. The only disadvantage to this is that if I want Cd's in my car, I...

Hot: Fun retro swing

Fri, 31 Dec 1999 02:06:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - This is Squirrel Nut Zipper's big album. They had several videos and at least one commercial come from this album. Even if you've never heard of the "Squirrel Nut Zippers", you've probably heard their music around somewhere.

Ok, so maybe...

Soul-searching in Puerto Rico

Mon, 27 Dec 1999 20:01:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - Rum Diaries is a book you can easily sink into. Hunter S. Thompson's descriptions of 1950's Puerto Rico (mostly San Juan) are as lush as the tropical surroundings. From the first page, you can feel the heat, humidity, and franaticism of San Juan in the...

Fast, realistic, fun!

Mon, 27 Dec 1999 15:23:52 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - Wow. Racing games have come a long way. Test Drive 6 is probably one of the oldest and best known racing games out there. Test Drive 6 doesn't disappoint. Test Drive 6 can be played 2 player, or single player. As a single player, the goal is to...

Serious riders, only!

Thu, 16 Dec 1999 16:07:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - I am an avid mountain biker, and the occasional racer. I like to go really, really fast over long distances. Although not quite at the level of a trials rider, I like to catch some air where possible. Usually it's at high speed, as opposed to the...

Sony CMT-EX1: Great stereo that looks like fine furniture.

Sun, 28 Nov 1999 00:50:14 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - The Sony CMT-EX1 is a gorgeous stereo. There's no way around it. In fact, that's the first thing most people notice. It's one of the first stereos that looks like a beautiful piece of Scandinavian furniture, as opposed to another plain black box. It...

Worth a second viewing!

Sat, 27 Nov 1999 22:25:09 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - Recently released on DVD, Last of the Mohicans is a truly great historical, romantic, adventure that deserves to be ranked with the best of them. It is a story loosely based on the James Fennimore Cooper novel of the same name. Last of the Mohicans...

Deep & disturbing. One of Bowie's best.

Tue, 23 Nov 1999 02:32:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - Get ready. This album is intense. In the spirit of artistic creativity, this is one of Bowie's finest albums. Although it did not get much critical acclaim, this album deserves some respect. The album is actually one long story (hint: don't put it on...

100,000 miles, and still going strong!

Tue, 23 Nov 1999 02:19:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author NineNine - You hear the stories, but now you know it's true. Hondas' famous reliability rings true. I'm currently driving a very basic 1994 Honda Accord LX. AC, stereo with tape deck, that's about it. This car can take anything! It can go offroad (I live off...
