The Intel Core Duo T2600 CPU @ 2.16Ghz totally blows away the P4 3.1Ghz CPU that powered by old HP notebook and it runs much cooler. I... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~269836127876 Tue, 24 Oct 2006 01:17:15 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_269836127876?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_268984028804?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author dongtoucher - I PURCHASED THIS DVD RECORDER TO: 1.

I really liked the styling of the Sony XBR3, but not enough to shell out an extra $1500. VIEWING CABLE TV: Digital HD cable (particularly the "Discovery HD... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~268572921476 Fri, 20 Oct 2006 23:28:36 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_268572921476?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_258777190020?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author dongtoucher - My third phone through Verizon is by far the worst. Previously, I used Audiovox and Kyocera. I've had this phone 18 months now and I've suffered more dropped calls, bad connections and annoyances than ever before. My number one complaint is the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~258777190020 Tue, 26 Sep 2006 14:54:48 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_258777190020?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_218484215428?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author dongtoucher - We had this espresso machine for about three weeks when it started having problems. One day the thing just started acting very strange, such as making strange noises and squirting water out of the brew-head while you where frothing milk. The machine... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~218484215428 Sat, 21 Jan 2006 19:36:48 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_218484215428?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_212810108548?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dongtoucher - I have a black 5-Speed manual GXE with almost 100k miles on it. I leased this car for 3-years back in '97 and at the end of the lease I paid cash for it and kept it... I just wasn't ready to part with it yet. That turned out to be a good decision,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~212810108548 Fri, 2 Dec 2005 18:04:20 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_212810108548?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_212731793028?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author dongtoucher - I have a Gigabyte motherboard that uses the nForce 2 Ultra chipset. It's about a year old and I have been happily using a Western Digital 120GB USB 2.0 drive with it. I needed some extra space so I purchased this unit and copied about 100GB of data... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~212731793028 Thu, 1 Dec 2005 21:36:26 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_212731793028?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_212718161540?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dongtoucher - We purchased this portable DVD player about 4 months ago. It's primarily used to keep our 4 year old entertained for long trips in the minivan. I opted for the black version that comes with extra accessories (bag, headphones, car charger, etc.) The... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~212718161540 Thu, 1 Dec 2005 19:00:43 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_212718161540?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_211994971780?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dongtoucher - I've ordered stuff from these guys for years (even back when they were googlegear). They are my 2nd favorite online reseller and I place about 4-6 orders per year with them. I've never had a problem, so I can't vouch for their customer service -... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~211994971780 Wed, 23 Nov 2005 17:40:52 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_211994971780?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_211993988740?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dongtoucher - These guys ROCK! I made the mistake of ordering some things from other online vendors this year and what a nightmare. Newegg always ships on time and the inventory reflected online is actually accurate! Neweggs prices are always in the running for... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~211993988740 Wed, 23 Nov 2005 17:27:00 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_211993988740?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_211993267844?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author dongtoucher - Well laid out site with a large selection and fair prices. Customer service is terrible. If you ever want to change or cancel and order... good luck with that. No phone number on their site. An Internet search will provide you with a number for... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~211993267844 Wed, 23 Nov 2005 17:20:57 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_211993267844?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_210780720772?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dongtoucher - I originally purchased a Samsung for about $30 less and it died after 10 days. I returned it and picked up this set. It came down to a coin toss between the Toshiba and a Sony. I decided on the Toshiba because it was less expensive, smaller, lighter and... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~210780720772 Thu, 10 Nov 2005 02:59:25 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_210780720772?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_209158639236?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dongtoucher - We've had this phone system with two extra handsets for about the last two years. The reception and range of the phones is good. Some of the text on the buttons has started to rub off, but other than that they've held up very well. The only real... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~209158639236 Sun, 23 Oct 2005 04:09:14 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_209158639236?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_209153134212?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dongtoucher - I've had the 2003 Honda VTX 1800R for just over a year now. I moved up from a Suzuki 700cc street bike and was a bit concerned about the size of th 1800. My worries ended once I got on and rode it. It actually feels much more stable and nimble than my... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~209153134212 Sun, 23 Oct 2005 01:16:32 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_209153134212?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_209151823492?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author dongtoucher - Good for VCD/SVCD and it also plays DVDs. It plays both NTSC and PAL discs and is simple to make it region free. I've purchased 5 of these to date (3 for myself and 2 for family members). Great for the kids rooms. Don't expect a lot of bells and... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~209151823492 Sun, 23 Oct 2005 00:59:55 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_209151823492?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_209151037060?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dongtoucher - This 2.1 system delivers more stunning surround effects than the Sony 5.1 system it replaced, and the sound clarity is much better. It's not a thumping, rocking-out system, but it's very crisp and clean. UPDATE: After a couple more months of use, I've... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~209151037060 Sun, 23 Oct 2005 00:47:29 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_209151037060?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_209091726980?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author dongtoucher - I read complaints about the bigger Samsung TV's in this same series with the remotes not working to good... but I didn't expect the thing would just stop working after 1 week of use. What a big piece of junk. I've never had a consumer electronics device... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~209091726980 Sat, 22 Oct 2005 05:04:44 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_209091726980?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_159181540996?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author dongtoucher - The flip-up part of the remote broke in less than a year. After a couple of years the center channel speaker stopped working half of the time. The unit would warm up and start clicking like a relay was loose. Rear speakers constantly hiss if no... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~159181540996 Fri, 22 Oct 2004 00:56:55 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_159181540996?linkin_id=8003929
