Worst Tires I Have Ever Owned or Driven On.

Sat, 27 Jun 2009 17:16:20 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author betamale - My new Volvo C30 T5 came equipped with these tires. My review is based upon 3,000 miles of driving experience on two sets of Pilox HX MXM4 XL's on my Volvo. I have been happy with other Michelin Pilot tires I have owned, but I think that...

Wed, 23 Aug 2006 17:08:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author betamale - I needed some spark plugs, a couple of cabin air filters and a windshield washer nozzle (don't ask) for our cars, but I didn't want to pay local prices for what should be commodity items. After spending a fun bunch of time on Saturday poking around...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author betamale - See my UPDATE at the end of the review. HONESTY Honestly, their appears to be a wholesale effort to artificially prop up Home Annex's rating on epinions by overly effusive reviews. I've never seen a product nor a service that has...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author betamale - I've had my Kodak 1220557 AC Adapter for over five years and it works as advertised. As a bonus over many other wall-wart type power supplies, the 1220557 has a nice long cord, allowing you to move around quite a bit without having to use an AC...

Yawn. Somebody wake me up when it has another 100 horsepower.

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author betamale - Summary I first laid eyes on this car & its Ford stablemate at this years autoshow. The friend with whom I went to the auto show quoted me a bit of a review he'd read on the Ford Five Hundred, and now that I've taken a test drive in the 2005...

Trust me, those Dutch know winter, and they know winter tires too!

Tue, 7 Dec 2004 12:02:42 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author betamale - Why I chose them I grew up in far upstate NY. Almost Canada, really. I remember vividly about 10 years ago riding in a friend's rear-wheel drive wagon during a snowstorm, through about 5 inches of unplowed snow, with seemingly limitless...

Kodak Portra-400BW 135-36 Professional Black & White Print Film (ISO-400) - Pro Pack 5 Rolls: Goodbye Portra B&W, we hardly even knew you

Tue, 4 May 2004 14:17:00 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author betamale - Portra B&W was a fine grained C-41 based Black & White film. This means that you could shoot black and white film that could be developed at any regular lab that develops color negative film, as opposed to regular black & white film that requires a...

Fri, 30 Apr 2004 12:49:42 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author betamale - It would be difficult, even in today's world of electronic documentation of everything, to consider yourself a real mechanical engineer without a Machinery's Handbook sitting on your desk. That's right, your desk, not your bookshelf. Leaving it on...

A Great Bargain Among Used EOS Film Bodies

Mon, 26 Apr 2004 00:45:34 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author betamale - Second in the EOS lineup of its day (behind only the original EOS 1), the 10/10s represented a great value then and an even better value now on the used market. Some great features that stand out and make an EOS 10s a great choice: Three...

Dated, but still very functional Film & Negative scanner

Thu, 8 Apr 2004 12:23:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author betamale - This scanner represents one of the best deals on the used market today. For around $60 (about 5% of its original retail price) you can snag one on ebay. For that you can expect to get a clean unit, a film strip holder, an extra bulb & a SCSI cable...

Beautiful faxes, but ludicrously susceptible to damage from static electricity

Mon, 1 Mar 2004 15:40:31 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author betamale - I can sum up my review in just 2 bullet points. 1) When functioning this machine sends and receives quickly and beautifully. The send queue allows you to process several jobs even while a previous job is still being sent and the receive queue holds...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author betamale - The Story I probably put too much effort in trying to find a suitable TV stand, but in the end it all paid off when I found the Bello AVS-422T at my local circuit city. When I first saw this stand I was drawn in by its sharp good looks,...

Forget the Mini-Maglite and get a CMG Infinity Ultra

Mon, 1 Sep 2003 03:33:59 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author betamale - UPDATE (12/2006) When I first wrote this review back in 2003 the world of LED flashlights was very different than what it is today. The CMG Infinity Ultra was a great compromise in size, price & lighting power. Nowadays, however, the market is...
