Lousy paper handler

Wed, 18 Mar 2009 21:11:50 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author expert_witness - I bought this guy because of its network capability -- at last, all my computers can print through one printer! I remember how excited I was when I first loaded it up with ink, and I was impressed with how the red LED lights would come on under...

Too Much Hassle!

Sat, 1 Apr 2006 13:42:09 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author expert_witness - The following outlines my experience with an R200 that I purchased factory refurbished -- it may not reflect the experience of someone buying one brand new (but frankly I wouldn't count on it.) The R200 is a great solution for people needing to spend...

Wish I was more impressed...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author expert_witness - Picked this up on the Open Box table at a local Circuit City, and saved a bundle (couldn't believe how low a price, almost half off!) Shot with it a few times over the next 14 days, and on the last day of the return window, I actually played some of it...

Smells bad. Yes, SMELLS bad.

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author expert_witness - Had this phone for about a year, and honestly don't know why we've kept it this long. The receiver is made of some sort of aromatic plastic that makes it unpleasant to hold near your face, and the smell has gotten worse over time. Sort of a mix of...

IBM.com: Be prepared to have your attorney or the Mafia at your side when buying direct.

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author expert_witness - IBM will certainly sell you any product you ask for. Just look out if you have to deal with custome...

Taken Care Of!

Tue, 11 Mar 2003 20:19:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author expert_witness - What does that mean, "Taken Care Of"? Well, it's just the impression I always get when I take the controls of a Focus (and I will admit here that I don't own one, I just rent them occasionally, so be advised I have no idea of their long term strengths...

I enjoy it every time!

Tue, 11 Mar 2003 04:25:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author expert_witness - I've read a handful of reviews complaining about the Long Beach Aquarium's limited size, and a few that even say they were bored.

Well, fooey! Take a drive up to Monterey then! Off with you!

Consider that the Long Beach Aquarium's...

The Ultimate Kodak it aint.

Tue, 13 Nov 2001 02:32:07 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author expert_witness - *Make sure you read the update at the end!

First, let me state I have probably shot more photos (in a sense) with Kodak digital cameras than almost any human being outside of their labs in Rochester New York. I've been using a number of...

Wondries Chevrolet Geo: Less than wonderful Wondries

Sat, 3 Nov 2001 16:44:25 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author expert_witness - This is a review of Wondries FORD (affiliated, nearby) at 400 South Atlantic.

I'm almost never a fan of dealer repair departments; Wondries merely reinforces my negative stereotyping.

I brought my car in for two problems: the...

We curse this thing daily!

Thu, 6 Sep 2001 16:32:06 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author expert_witness - We've reached the point where we don't even check it for messages any more. It's just not worth the effort.

Why? An example:

I come home to see the number 1 blink and the number 7 blink. Okay, 17 messages. Are there any NEW...

BEWARE!

Tue, 4 Sep 2001 08:56:24 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author expert_witness - Based on the good reviews, I expected to be bowled over by this appliance. After all, a machine that not only bakes bread but serves as a toaster oven AND a convection oven as well! What GENIUS! But to my astonishment, even though we bought it DEEPLY...

Frigidaire GWL10 Washing Machine: It's like having a new washer AND dryer!

Sat, 25 Aug 2001 01:11:11 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author expert_witness - Bought this machine (the most expensive appliance I've EVER bought, even with the power company rebate) purely based on the glowing reviews here on Epinions. I'd never heard of Fisher and Paykel before this.

I'd actually already bought (paid...

Fine compact system that fits on a shelf!

Wed, 1 Aug 2001 02:19:29 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author expert_witness - I bought my JVC mini-system as a replacement for an entire cabinetful of electronics. You know something -- I should have done this years ago! Having a tiny, full-sounding system tucked inconspicuously on a shelf is far more civilized than having a...

Watch the transmission!

Sun, 29 Jul 2001 02:34:02 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author expert_witness - We bought our '96 SL new from the dealer; my wife insisted it made her "feel like a princess" when driving it. Their no-haggle policy made it easy to buy; I didn't even go with her to pick it out.

And over the past five years it's started...

I wanted to like this show, but...

Tue, 15 May 2001 02:42:38 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author expert_witness - Based on raving reviews (from my own father as well, no less) I was expecting something really spectacular and amazing. What I got for my $70 was...well...tedious. And sinfully wasteful, at the finale. Made me mad enough to walk out.

First,...

IBM Thinkpad X Series: Totally destroyed my faith in Thinkpads. TOTALLY.

Mon, 26 Feb 2001 13:35:39 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author expert_witness - This has been the laptop from hell. After just a week of ownership, with nearly two 8-hour days on the phone with IBM tech support (they got paid for it, I didn't), my brand new X20 won't even boot and IBM is refusing to support their machine. Their...
