Dell Inspiron 2100 Series: Three cheers for DELL

Sat, 5 Jan 2002 21:14:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - I'm not going to give you all the specs and hardcore numbers on this machine because you can easily find that out from Dell or other reviews. Instead I want to highlight why this laptop has been absolutely perfect for everything I could ever want...

The Incomplete Fight

Sat, 29 Dec 2001 16:11:52 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - Muhammad Ali has been made into a national hero in the last decade or so because he was such a large public face when he fought. Very few people realize the enormous political, religious, and public fury that swirled around him in the 60's and this...

AT&T Mobile Phone Service in Boston: Few Problems and Nice people

Sun, 7 Jan 2001 22:01:29 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - I was surprised to read so many negative reviews of AT&T after being with them for a couple of years. I am certainly not blown away with their service, but I haven't had constant issues with connecting or dropped calls. For me the price of their...

The reason Harvard works

Mon, 18 Dec 2000 18:44:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - A friend visited Harvard and went to 'nochs (the local name for joint) and told me that had his parents brought him here in seventh grade he would have worked a lot harder through high school just to have the opportunity to pick up a slice from here...

Taquile's Better Neighbor: Amantani

Mon, 18 Dec 2000 18:20:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - I had planned to stay on both islands for a night before pushing on to La Paz and ended up staying on Amantani for two nights and only a few hours on Taquile which ended up being a perfect use of my time.

From the port you can easily find any...

Bumpin'!

Mon, 18 Dec 2000 15:45:49 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - The obvious benefit of this system is the size and ease of use. I have been totally impressed with its performance too.

I recently purchased about $5000 worth of stereo and television equipment for my mother's new house, and as an aside we...

New Toy, Same Phone as Before

Tue, 12 Dec 2000 03:57:57 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - I wrote an epinion about my Nokia 5100 phone because it replaced my landline, and I ended up getting this phone because of some great rebates and I like new tech toys. About 90% of this phone is the same as the 5100 I liked so much before, the...

Stay Argentine and Save

Tue, 12 Dec 2000 01:23:57 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - I studied in Buenos Aires in the fall of 2000 and when my mother came to town I needed to find a place for her to stay. Yes, the Alvear Palace and Park Hyatt are beautiful world class hotels, but at $400 a night they better be. I found this great place...

Trekking in the Patagonian Andes: A Walking Guide: Guide to Heaven

Tue, 12 Dec 2000 00:48:24 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - This is a great small guide (a little big for a pocket, but perfect for a daypack) that gives detailed information about trekking in both Chilean and Argentine Andean Patagonia. If you are a first time hiker or an experienced adventurer you will find...

Don't go out of your way, but if you do...

Tue, 12 Dec 2000 00:28:04 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - I’m not a waterfall freak (I’ve met them, and they’re a bit odd) but Iguazu was a great trip, but probably not worth changing all your plans to go see. Since there are few things to do in the area I don’t think it was so great that you HAD to change...

Calafate and Chaleten Argentina's BEST treks

Mon, 11 Dec 2000 21:22:43 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - Argentina is hoping that tourism will help them out of their continued economic worries, that is why they have basically called anything south of Buenos Aires Patagonia. There really are many areas: Atlantic (Puerto Madryn), Lakes District (Bariloche),...

But I thought it was going to be perfect...

Mon, 11 Dec 2000 19:11:28 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - Given the opportunity to equip my mother's new house with a state of the art entertainment system let me look in a price range that most college students only dream of. I poked around at some of the projection and high definition TVs, but the Sony flat...

Unused opportunity

Mon, 19 Jun 2000 03:15:43 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - Basically, like everything else at Harvard, intramural sports (often called IMs) are only as good as what you (and maybe a few friends) put into it.

Freshman and upperclassmen have two separate IM systems, but both attempt to make it...

The Secondary Department

Sat, 22 Apr 2000 21:32:54 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - I am not a Harvard Athlete (not enough to count at least) but it's pretty easy to realize that athletics are not officially a very important part of the university. It's not that athletes or coaches don't care, it's that most students and the...

Boston's West Coast Better

Sat, 22 Apr 2000 20:14:14 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - As a man born and raised in the east I have been intrigued but skeptical of all those who have told me how great life out west is. I often tell my friends that are here for college that if it so great why don't they just go back. After just a few days...

Original Reggae

Sat, 22 Apr 2000 18:17:34 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - I didn't know this until I bought this album, but Toots and the Maytals are considered the first Reggae band. Before Marley, before Cliff, before everyone. This really comes out in this album. The bass is heavy and raw, the lyrics flow with gospel and...

Replaced my land line

Tue, 21 Mar 2000 02:52:00 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - I wrote an opinion on this phone pretty soon after I got it, but my views has changed a little since I've had it-some for the better some for worse. Because of my land line situation, this is my primary phone and has performed very well considering the...

Yahoo Auctions: More Searchable

Mon, 13 Mar 2000 21:20:47 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - So I've used Yahoo!Auctions as a buyer and a seller and I have been very happy with it. Most notably Yahoo! is free, and since I just selling stuff that I have around and don't use it's not too important for me to be selling stuff everyday. This is...

Big so take what you will

Tue, 1 Feb 2000 13:02:55 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - The Government department (we don't call it political science because Harvard always needs to do things a little differently) is one of the largest departments for undergraduates. Generally most people don't see this department as a very difficult...

It makes me Haaapppy

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 05:02:56 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - I spent a good part of my young career trying to see as much Kids in The Hall as I could. Although some of their sketch comedy is hit or miss, each bit I had ever seen was filled with new perspectives that actually made a little sense. There is no...

1997 Ford Explorer 4WD: 1997 and holding tough

Mon, 24 Jan 2000 13:14:19 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - I got the explorer sport because my sister's lease was up and the price was pretty good, but it really has been great for everything that I've needed. As a college student in the northeast that often needs to move a car load of stuff or people but don't...

Bad video rental

Sat, 22 Jan 2000 15:36:46 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - I went to this movie because I had seen the first one, and since it has been a constant source of one-liners. They tried to repeat that again with this one with little success.

There certainly were some small highlights in the early part of...

Defines Baseball

Tue, 18 Jan 2000 04:03:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - You've seen it. Carlton Fisk actually keeping a baseball in the park with his sheer will. The image of the green monster is the strongest single image in baseball because of that event and many years of heartache and glory (little more of the first...

Napster: Music in Seconds

Tue, 4 Jan 2000 18:47:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aleary - It's the easiest way to find and download music out there.

Napster is a small program that allows anyone to find MP3s easily by making every member computer (that is online) into a server. The download (from download.com) is free and takes a...
