rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author caffeine68 - 1970 was a heck of a good year for movies. The other most notable war movie of that year was Patton which is also a favorite of mine.

Compaq Presario 5005SR - Its from Sears but its no Crafstman

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author caffeine68 - This Compaq is a member of the 5000 family, and with the SR designation is sold ONLY at retail Sears locations.

Its being replaced in part by the 5008SR with a slightly faster processor (1GHz) so this review SHOULD be equally valid for its ever so...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author caffeine68 - Ok, I admit it. I had an AOL account.

When they decided it was in their best interest to upgrade their price from $19.95 to $21.95 while in my opinion adding nothing that I wanted. It was definately TIME for me to go looking for something...

I GLADLY layed out $55 for version 4.0 of the ComCenter (basicly the deluxe bundle version)a little over a year and a half ago.

Sat, 23 Sep 2000 23:43:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author caffeine68 - ICQ, which is a play on the words I Seek You, is not a new program in the slightest.

Sat, 23 Sep 2000 11:35:02 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author caffeine68 - I'm cheap, I admit this.

When my old 15 inch monitor decided it was time to go off to a finer place I needed a monitor that wouldn't send me to the eye doctor for being too small, or send me to the poor house for being too expensive.

When...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author caffeine68 - My machine is starting to show just a little bit of its age, and some of its purchase decisions which were PERFECT 16 months ago are starting to turn into thin ice and crack.
