At five cents a click, however, it seems a bit paltry. Also, when I tried it, there was like a total of... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~772832 Fri, 11 Aug 2000 18:52:17 GMT http://www.epinions.com/webs-review-551E-29375892-399473EF-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/elec-review-72B5-D5B775E-38835275-bd1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author crashedpc - I was at the local store the other day, comparing various types of car stereos. I gave the Kenwood KDC-6011 a whirl. First off, the controls on the right side are a bit hard to read, especially when viewed from the driver's side. But that's hopefully a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1232480 Mon, 17 Jan 2000 14:44:04 GMT http://www.epinions.com/elec-review-72B5-D5B775E-38835275-bd1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/elec-review-2B97-D5A7B7D-38834FF0-bd1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author crashedpc - My car stereo had blew an amp, so I went out and got the Sony C4750, after spending quite some time comparing brands and models. I figured that the Sony would be worthwhile, since I trusted Sony products. The D-Bass function makes the bass a lot louder... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1232485 Mon, 17 Jan 2000 14:32:27 GMT http://www.epinions.com/elec-review-2B97-D5A7B7D-38834FF0-bd1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/musc-review-190F-B7811AB-387E7CF4-bd1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author crashedpc - I first heard about Staind on the radio, like most people. Their single, "Mudshovel", impressed me immensly. There was an anger behind the voice, but the anger was controlled and directed beautifully. "Suffocate", the first track, was... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1046363 Thu, 13 Jan 2000 22:39:24 GMT http://www.epinions.com/musc-review-190F-B7811AB-387E7CF4-bd1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/musc-review-5E91-B7772E9-387E7B5E-bd1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author crashedpc - The third Rage album released has yet to disappoint loyal fans. As usual, Tom Morello is at it again, making his guitar sound like anything from a harmonica to a set of bagpipes (I think). Zack de la Rocha is at his screaming best, invoking insights... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1046367 Thu, 13 Jan 2000 22:31:07 GMT http://www.epinions.com/musc-review-5E91-B7772E9-387E7B5E-bd1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/cmd-review-5BCF-B7648A6-387E7862-bd1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author crashedpc - FreeWay basically lets you call for free. The catch? Listen to a 15 second ad. Guess what? It works. No gimmicks, no in-box overflowing with spam, nothing. The only bad thing was the waiting time, because when I signed up about a year ago, it took 5... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1417605 Thu, 13 Jan 2000 22:18:21 GMT http://www.epinions.com/cmd-review-5BCF-B7648A6-387E7862-bd1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/cmd-review-4F8D-B71B425-387E6CA8-bd1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author crashedpc - You know how most PDAs have either a touch screen function or a tiny, squishy keyboard? Well, the Revo's keyboard is very usable, in addition to being small. In case you don't like the keyboard, there's a stylus to use also. It doesn't use Windows CE,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1417657 Thu, 13 Jan 2000 21:28:47 GMT http://www.epinions.com/cmd-review-4F8D-B71B425-387E6CA8-bd1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/cmd-review-13C-B70EEE6-387E6AAF-bd1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author crashedpc - The Creative Labs 3D Blaster is one of the best 3d cards I have seen out there. I test tried it a few times, with several different games, at a friend's house, and I must say that I am very impressed. Quake 3 ran at a 800x600 resolution and 32-bit color... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1417667 Thu, 13 Jan 2000 21:20:36 GMT http://www.epinions.com/cmd-review-13C-B70EEE6-387E6AAF-bd1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/cmd-review-5A68-12056E2C-387D6B7E-prod2?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author crashedpc - First off, I like the color. The little bits at the sides, I mean. But that put aside, the Sony Spressa is a fast little bugger that can read almost as fast a normal CD drive. At least, that's what I noticed. One weird thing I noticed, however, was that... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1434728 Thu, 13 Jan 2000 03:12:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/cmd-review-5A68-12056E2C-387D6B7E-prod2?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/elec-review-24BC-F2AF36D-387D3247-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author crashedpc - I loved the sleek design of the Rio. It looked like it was ready to go out and conquer the MP3 world. Yet, somehow it was disappointing. Why? There wasn't enough storage capacity for my mp3s.

With its extremely high refresh rate, you can easily play games at 1024x768 or higher easily without fear of pixelization or graphic breakup. Installation is easy. I tried out several games with the Voodoo3, among them Quake 3,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1434958 Wed, 12 Jan 2000 22:57:37 GMT http://www.epinions.com/cmd-review-28E8-F29D239-387D2F63-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/cmd-review-79BB-F27B068-387D29ED-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author crashedpc - CuteFTP is THE most easiest to use FTP program I have ever used. It takes the fear out of using FTP servers, due to its, well, "cute" interface, and makes uploading and downloading a cinch. You can tell it to save previous servers for easy... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1434989 Wed, 12 Jan 2000 22:32:00 GMT http://www.epinions.com/cmd-review-79BB-F27B068-387D29ED-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/cmd-review-38D6-F271CD3-387D2874-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author crashedpc - Go!Zilla is better than most file download utilities. It detects multiple servers before you download, telling you the speed, so you can easily choose the fastest server, or tell it to lock onto the optimal server.

In fact, I think it's the best. It's small, and it doesn't chew up system resources like some programs I know.

It's easy to use, fast loading, and you can customize it almost any way that you want.

I feel the same way about Real Jukebox. Want to record music? How low can you go (as relating to kilobits)? The recording quality is bad.

Where are you? Hm, I don't seem to have seen it at Paybar yet. Well, gee, let's see. You can get a potential 20 dollars a month, I think? That sure isn't going to be paying any of my utility bills.

It mostly delivers free services that you could find by yourself. Seriously. I mean, who needs to rely on a website that links you to a free e-greeting card site?

You redeem these points for stuff, like a movie package or a gift certificate to almost any major store you can think of.

Just when I thought Quake 2 and Blood 2 weren't bloody enough, Kingpin comes out. I mean, sure, I loved those graphics and gameplay, but the swearing was a bit over the top.
