Great Budget MDLP Recorder!

Sun, 19 May 2002 04:38:07 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - The MZ-R500 is a great MDLP Minidisc recorder priced to sell. Its sound is great, and it records well--- however, this is true of nearly ALL Sony MD players. What stands to question here is if you're getting what you pay for. In my opinion, YES, you...

Excellent TV for $1250

Sat, 9 Jun 2001 23:59:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - My old 32" Mitsubishi was dying. I had it for a little over 7 years. Back in the day, I had paid well over $1500 for it at the Wiz. Prices of TVs have dropped considerably since then. I did a bit of shopping around at local stores, looking mainly for...

Nice Reliable Choice

Sun, 27 May 2001 17:56:00 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - I've noticed that Juno Web has gotten a bad rap on epinions. I've used Juno on and off in the past months (until i got cable modem) and it has always worked well for me. Granted, its not the prettiest program, but hey, IT WORKS.

I think...

Dell Dimension 8100 Series: High end computer with a matching price!

Sun, 27 May 2001 01:43:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - Hopping onto Dell.com and ordering a computer was a snap. All there was to do was to pick the type of computer i wanted: Cutting Edge, Advanced, or Affordable. From there, I could customize it as i pleased. I decided to go for the "cutting edge" model...

Just BORING. Performs perfectly, but there are better choices for the money!! (revised)

Sat, 26 May 2001 00:58:43 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - As the top of the line MZ-Exx series MD player from Sony, I expected much more from than what I got. Granted there was nothing wrong quality-wise with the player, but for such a high price in stores (i got mine off ebay), I would have thought that...

For those with deep pockets.

Sun, 20 May 2001 16:37:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - I've owned 5 minidisc portables in my lifetime, and this unit is by far the most option laden unit I've come across! There is every option conceivable:

Record in standard mode, LP2, and LP4, long battery life (53 hours), end search, countdown...

Quality Printing at a LOW COST

Sun, 20 May 2001 15:48:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - My old printer was a HP Deskjet 694C. It was a horrible piece of machinery, which I've been tempted to smash with a hammer from day one. I rejoiced the day it jammed and refused to print. It was time to buy a new printer.

Shopping with a...

The PERFECT MD Player!

Tue, 6 Mar 2001 01:40:45 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - This is the best Sony MD Player that is produced, without a doubt. It has the most features out of ANY Sony MD player in their "MZ-Exx" series, INCLUDING the E90!

It's features:

- Capable of approx. 40 hrs of playback, with a...

Wheeeee this is fun! Great shredder!

Sun, 7 Jan 2001 01:25:28 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - As a frequent ebay seller, I've found it costly to buy packaging materials each time i shipped something. I decided a paper shredder would help me out in this area, as well as alleviate the enormous amounts of "scrap paper" (computer paper...

Only a MORON would buy this piece of JUNK!

Fri, 5 Jan 2001 02:11:45 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - First off, I'd like to say that I cannot believe how highly recommended The R70 is on epinions. Either people are just making up their reviews, or they simply don't know anything about minidisc. This is an extremely SLOW and LOUD MD player; Minidisc...

Swanky Fast! Super easy install!!

Sun, 26 Nov 2000 23:18:48 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - I just got cable modem installed a week ago, and so far so good! It was simple to order: I placed a 2 minute phone call to Cablevision's toll free number and after giving them some basic information, I received a cable modem, ethernet card, and setup...

Quality at a low cost!! (update)

Wed, 19 Jul 2000 00:35:41 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - I first bought this MD Player off EBay for $100. It was within my price range, and was my first forage into MD Technology. This unit can now be bought for as cheap as $80 at a Sony retail outlet, or somewhere around $50 on EBay. The price is amazing if...

Update: SUPERB CAR!! RELIABLE!!

Tue, 18 Jul 2000 01:20:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - Think of this car as a cheaper, yet roomier and more comfortable version of the Lexus ES300. This car is has a soft ride, is whisper quiet, and has a huge trunk and excellent leg room. Although built on the base of a Camry, the Avalon is cavernous,...

Abit G740: EXCELLENT AFFORDABLE CHIP

Tue, 18 Jul 2000 00:43:11 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - I'm no computer junkie, so I don't know all the specifics and what not on graphics cards. What I can tell you though, is that *MOST* 3D accelerated games run perfectly with this relatively cheap graphics card. I paid $20 a year ago for my Diamond...

InterAct TremorPak: BIG in size, SMALL in performance

Mon, 17 Jul 2000 22:07:19 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - GOOD FOR NOTHING is what i can say about this rumble pak. It's LARGE and HEAVY, and uses 2AA batteries, which makes it considerably heavier and more expensive to keep powered. Most rumble paks use 2AAA batteries. The weight of this rumble pak is so...

A not so cheap alternative to Nintendo's Exp Pak

Mon, 17 Jul 2000 21:09:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - Generally speaking, 3rd party hardware for video game consoles cannot gain a foothold if the product is not either innovative, or priced competitively. This Mad Catz Expansion Pak is neither.

A look at what this expansion pack is supposed...

GREAT HARDTAIL BIKE!!!

Fri, 14 Jul 2000 23:35:08 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - If you want a great front suspension bike, the GT Rebound has it all. It's very lightweight and strong aluminum frame. There are no squeaks, clanks, or thuds emitted from this bike, which is a sure sign of quality.

Here's a run down on...

MZ-R70. Sorry about item placement. :-(

Wed, 28 Jun 2000 19:22:50 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - I must apologize for my misplacement of this review. Although I have asked Epinions to start an MZ-R70 category, it has been several months, and still no addition. I hope that the quality of my review makes up for its misplacement. I found this to be...

Motorola Timeport P930 2-Way Pager: Nice, but could use some work.

Thu, 22 Jun 2000 02:38:16 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - Motorola makes another forage into unchartered pager technology. Although this new two-way pager they have come out with seems very new and high-tech, better things are bound to develop. I would recommend that you wait for technology to improve before...

YUCK... yum... YUCK...

Tue, 20 Jun 2000 00:13:57 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - I have mixed feelings about the taste of these powerbars. On one hand, they are tough to chew and have a paper like taste to them, yet they aren't that bad when taken with water, and sure are filled with a lot of flavor. Unfortunately, anyone within 8...

NICE!! Easy to use, fast! GET IT.

Sun, 18 Jun 2000 22:49:47 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - Although i am an AOL member, I downloaded FreeI so that I could get online when AOL is at its busiest. Since then, AOL has cleaned up its busy signal mess, and i've had less use for FreeI. I've used it about 15 times, and each time it has worked...

Archived Computer Hardware Reviews: Like a regular CRT monitor!

Wed, 14 Jun 2000 01:52:02 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - I recently traded in my old KDS S1-f for the larger Sony Multiscan CPD-L181A. It has a giant 18.1" LCD panel which offers the same quality as a large CRT-type display, except taking up much much less space.

Unlike most LCD displays,...

Archived Computer Hardware Reviews: Just like a work of art

Sun, 11 Jun 2000 00:06:11 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - This monitor is just like a work of art. Great to look at, but no real use. As sleek and modern as this monitor looks, it failed to meet my expectations. It was thin, small, and lightweight, yet the resolution maxed out at a lowly 1024X768, and the...

For kids, not adults or teens!

Sat, 10 Jun 2000 14:51:56 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - This water gun is not much for using as a concealed weapon, seemingly more suited for children. I had originally bought this water gun with intentions of using it as a concealed surprise attack water pistol to use on unsuspecting friends. It is way too...

A nice catchy alternative to Sony

Fri, 9 Jun 2000 03:25:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PenguinQX - Sony MD players have always been THE units to own.. however, some people (such as myself) sometimes like to be different from the pack.. JVC offers a high quality portable minidisc player/recorder.

Here are some of its features:
