Acer Access: A "No-Frills" Provider with a few Frills!

Fri, 26 Jul 2002 15:58:04 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author ben9 - Acer Access is a simple, straightforward, somewhat anonymous Internet Service Provider. For about half of what you’d pay to AOL or Earthlink, you get solid, reliable connectivity at 56K.

Some may consider this a “no-frills” ISP, but there are...

Toast of the Town!!!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ben9 - The first thing I like about this is the fact that it uses wire, filament strips to heat and toast the bread. A few years back, many manufacturers began using tubular light bulbs to do this, and there is no way you can get consistent, evenly toasted...

Whisper Quiet, Quality Storage!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ben9 - My first External Hard Drive was home-made; a little noisy, a little bulky - but I loved all 40Gigs. This excellent External Hard Drive cost me just $149, which is less than it cost me to make my own.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ben9 - This is the best table radio I've ever heard. Period. Readers of this review must understand that I come from a time when we used to put together our own "Heath-Kit" components, and when Quality meant more than anything else.

The first thing...

Excellent, Full-Featured Camera

Fri, 5 Jul 2002 16:55:51 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ben9 - I'm a little ashamed to admit, I was first attracted to this camera by it's looks - boxy, "snub-nose", brushed metal, retro look. Beautiful.

After doing a lot of research on this camera, and reading the excellent reviews here by "mbfd316" and...

Excellent, Value-Packed Camera

Fri, 5 Jul 2002 14:59:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ben9 - I suspect this camera might be made by Kyocera / Yashica. You'll find the exact same camera with their name on it in places such as Ebay. Who knows?

You can find this camera at Circuit City, Walmart, Ebay and Fred Meyers if you live in the...
