I'm a bad, bad knife keeper. I never, ever sharpen my knives. I tend to let them just go dull and complain about how they never cut anything ever. My husband complains bitterly about them, too, when the slip off of food. But we never... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~453876878980 Fri, 5 Dec 2008 13:24:34 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_453876878980?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_399776321156?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author dmentia777 - I spent way too much money on air conditioning last summer and vowed to do The Right Thing and use a fan, just like the radio ads tell me to.

But with a $75 price tag and an ethernet external drive enclosure, how could I say no? I bought this HDD as... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~344030678660 Thu, 5 Apr 2007 19:26:58 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_344030678660?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_344012263044?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dmentia777 - I admit it. I suffer from hard drive envy. The boys at work always talk about how much networked disk space they've got to store ... whatever. I wanted to be part of the club.

They're smaller and faster, come with many bells and whistles, in dozens of form factors.

The first time, about two years ago, it was cumbersome for my easy (1040EZ/CA540EZ) returns but I wanted to e-file. The following year, I didn't bother with online returns because the forms... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~324152495748 Fri, 23 Feb 2007 14:14:13 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_324152495748?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_319217700484?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dmentia777 - The short version: Great LCD TV for watching movies! A little ghost-y sometimes, non-HD (or ED) programming looks kind ugly, but the picture quality is great; the unit is pretty; easy as pie to set up myself.
