rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - The Fuji S5000 can produce what are, without a doubt, some of the best quality pictures in the non dSLR digital camera market. The S5000 benefits from Fuji's brand new Super CCD technology, giving it wider dynamic range (can capture more information from...

The Everymans DVD Player

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - The SD1200 is an example of one of those products that just... works. It does it very well, in fact. No, it may not have multiple slots or some other capabilities that higher priced models have, but it can't be beat at it's price range.

Good Headphones, Good Price

Tue, 31 Jul 2001 00:50:08 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - I received these headphones as a present from my grandparents, and, in general, I have been pleased with them. The sound quality and general construction of the device is good, as are its features.

Sound quality is good overall, but if you are...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - Overall Rating: 8/10

Good old Half-Life, it just refuses to die. With such various mods as Counter-Strike, Opposing Force, Action Half-Life, Opera Half-Life, and Team Fortress Classic, it's no wonder that Half-Life is among the most popular...

ProMedia: The Best... For Most, At Least

Thu, 18 Jan 2001 21:48:28 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - So you're considering the Klipsch ProMedia v.2-400 speakers? There are a few things to consider about this set of speakers and computer speakers in general: price, design, sound quality.

First off, price. Anyone who says $250 is cheap for...

Hercules 3D Prophet II GTS 64MB: The GTS Pro Rocks The Casbah

Sun, 24 Dec 2000 02:23:41 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - This review is referring to the Guillemot GTS Pro card, not the GTS or Ultra chipsets.

It seems as if no one has heard of the GTS Pro. Every store I go to denies the existence of this wonderful chipset. Let me lay it out for you this...

Serious Bikers Need Not Inquire

Fri, 22 Dec 2000 11:39:33 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - My Gary Fisher Joshua F4 (full-suspension) came stock with Rock Shox suspension. At first, I thought that this was great, and it really did feel good for a while. Then I got a Cane Creek AD-8 rear shock, and it was like getting a whole new bike, the ride...

The Sensible Speakers

Thu, 21 Dec 2000 17:38:31 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - I've had an older, analog only pair of these for about three years, and they have served me well. This was my first pair of higher-end speakers (aka > $10), and they have really served to expand my horizons.

First off, the sound quality. It...

Great, For a Select Few

Sat, 23 Sep 2000 23:44:29 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - Let me give you some background information about my predicament: I live in Columbus, Ohio, an area that is actually bigger than either Cleveland or Cincinnati, yet I do not have a broadband solution in my area. I do like to use the internet quite a bit,...

Hum MP3 Player: There Are Better Choices

Wed, 16 Aug 2000 20:56:16 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - If you are not familiar with this particular piece of software, it plays MP3 audio files on Windows CE machines. I didn't particularly like this piece of software for a number of reasons.

First off, it is quite buggy. There are many times when...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - I have had some great experiences with this CD player. The price, quality of sound, and the features are all factors influencing my purchase of this CD player, and I am thoroughly impressed.

First of all, the price. I went into Best Buy,...

Great Place To Go, Especialy If It's Close

Wed, 17 May 2000 21:24:18 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - On The Border is overall an excellent restaurant. Unfortunately, it is plagued with the problem many chain restaurants have: Nothing truly sets it apart. You don't go to On The Border saying "Oh boy, I can't wait 'till I have X!" The menu has a...

Pretty Darn Good Watch

Sat, 18 Mar 2000 00:05:20 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - I bought this watch while in Key Largo, Florida at a dive shop because I needed a watch for scuba diving, it looked cool and it seemed to have more features than the competition. I bought the watch and brought it home to the hotel only to find that the...

Great Shoes for a Good Price

Fri, 17 Mar 2000 23:54:17 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - It was the beginning of track season and I need a new pair of shoes! The local shoe superstore had gone out of business in my neck of the woods, so I tried my luck at a little running shoe shop, and I turned up a pair of Gel Cumulus running shoes, and I...

PC Games: Bow Down, Rogue Spear

Sat, 29 Jan 2000 21:49:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - This is the best game I have, well, ever played. Along with Half-Life, it is the best 3D shooter of all time. The thing is, though, that it's so much more. Even though it lacks multiplayer, the single player game is so good it's amazing Sierra pulled it...

Quality and Value Packed

Sun, 28 Nov 1999 12:03:00 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - This is a great camera. From it's picture quality and it's form factor to it's price and software, just about everything is great with this digital camera. This is the best camera a less-than professional could buy.

The picture quality is...

A Printer for All Seasons

Thu, 18 Nov 1999 21:39:57 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - Wow! This printer really impressed me from the time I saw it in the store. Looking at the stats, I saw pages per minute, color quality, picture quality and text quality as benefits of this printer. It also has a very small footprint compared to many...

A Good Phone For Most

Thu, 18 Nov 1999 21:18:08 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - This Qualcomm phone is quite nice actually. It's clarity, design and form factor are nice. But if you go for "coolness" in a cell phone or slimness, then this definitly isn't the phone for you.

Starting at clarity. Using digital...

The MZ-EP11 - Great Sound at a Great Price

Tue, 2 Nov 1999 17:03:24 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - The Sony MZ-EP11 player is great for entry level MD beginners that already have a means of recording minidiscs or will just listen to pre-recorded discs. The durability, sound and headphones are all excellent aspects.

First, the durability. It...

Best Fighting Game of All Time

Mon, 1 Nov 1999 23:43:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - Soul Calibur is, without a doubt in my opinion, the best fighting game, weapons or none, period. With the plot, the characters, the graphics and the sound, Namco has made a real winner with INCREDIBLE replay value.

First, the plot. I myself...

A Great 3Com Palm

Sun, 3 Oct 1999 00:58:44 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - The 3Com Palm IIIx is one of the best PDAs on the market. It has twice the memory of the Palm IIIe, more expandability options are available, and the LCD screen is improved.

Having owned one of these devices, I am very pleased with it. The...

Command: An OK Addition to the C&C Family

Sat, 2 Oct 1999 01:36:15 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - Tiberian Sun, by itself, is a great game, maybe to the amount of even winning some awards. The only problem is: it's been done before.

Westwood Studios first came out with Command and Conquer for DOS and then WIN95, a personal favorite. It was...

Excellent and Inexpensive

Thu, 30 Sep 1999 23:39:05 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - Looks, cushioning, stability and price: four of the Reebok DMX 6's strong points. I really like this new addition to my running shoe collection, and it makes a great shoe to schlepp around in while going to the mall for the younger folk.

The...

Cushioning Above All

Thu, 30 Sep 1999 23:16:22 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author eparker - If you run a lot, these just might be the perfect shoes for you. I have also found them to be quite comfortable, and the interesting sensation of the DMX system working below your feet is quite soothing; this seems to disappear with age, though.
