EliteGroup ECS UCR-61S2B Internal USB Card Reader 6-IN-ONE (Beige or Black Color) (ecs-61s2b) Flash Memory: Cheap and does the job most of the time

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fizbeam - I picked up one of these on sale for 99 cents. How could I resist? When it arrived I was a little surprised to discover that it's an INTERNAL USB drive and not external. This means that it connects to the internal USB connector on your motherboard and...

Reasonable monitor for the price

Fri, 7 May 2004 18:22:11 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author fizbeam - I searched long and hard to find a 17" LCD at a price I could afford. I run a dual monitor setup so I needed a pair which obviously doubles the cost. I had tried the Samsung 173T but I was disappointed with the base which I found too wobbly. I found a...

Samsung SyncMaster 173T (17 in.) LCD Passive Matrix Monitor: Gorgeous monitor that's nearly perfect

Sat, 27 Mar 2004 14:29:17 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author fizbeam - I got this screen as a replacement for my KDS Rad-5, a nice 15" LCD that was due for an upgrade. It's a gorgeous monitor with a much sharper picture than the KDS, and overall I'm very happy with it. Starting from the time I opened the box, let me...

Finally, a router that works!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fizbeam - After throwing my Linksys out the window in frustration, I searched around for something better. I tried DLink, I tried NetGear, and finally settled on this unit.

The Barricade is extremely easy to install and set up. Configuration options...

Buy something else.

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author fizbeam - This is the first router I ever had and I replaced it after trying several others. I managed a team of technicians for a while who agreed that other units are far superior. Notably, the SMC products.

Installation is pretty easy. Just plug...

Western Digital Caviar Special Edition 120.0GB Internal Hard Drive WD1200JBRT: Super fast drive for audio and video.

Tue, 3 Sep 2002 01:50:01 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fizbeam - This is one of WD's few "Special Edition" drives, identified by the JB part of it's product code. For your info, the product codes are set up like this:

First part is always WD.

Second part shows the drive size.

Third part shows...

Enlight EN-7237 ATX Mid-Tower : Solid case for the above average need.

Tue, 3 Sep 2002 01:37:54 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fizbeam - People often ignore the quality of the case they put their computer components in. It's the last thing most people think about. But if you're the type of person who does upgrades or fiddles with the internals of your machine at all, a good case is...

Not bad, but too big with the AA battery.

Tue, 3 Sep 2002 01:09:43 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fizbeam - This is a pretty nice unit. Fairly attractive, great battery life, nice record quality, and a good replacement for my old R37. The controls are functional and easy to figure out, the display is good, and the LP2/LP4 and grouping functions are really...

Best headphones for the price.

Tue, 3 Sep 2002 00:58:30 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fizbeam - The KOSS PortaPro headphones are a bit pricier than your average cheapo headphones, that's for sure, but they're really worth the cost. They have about the most consistent frequency response of any headphone at this price range. Full graphs of the...

Nice price, BAD SUPPORT.

Tue, 3 Sep 2002 00:42:48 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fizbeam - I bought this screen because the price was right and the reviews were good. Then I bought a second one. Bad idea. Warranty replacement and support from KDS has been TERRIBLE. Two months since they billed my credit card for shipping a new one to me...

Fast board with a few hassles.

Tue, 3 Sep 2002 00:42:20 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fizbeam - I purchased this board when it first came on the market. I've had many ASUS boards and they're always rock solid, though you pay for the quality with a higher price. I was impressed right away with the quality of the user manual. I'm used to pretty...

This must be alien technology.

Tue, 3 Sep 2002 00:42:03 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fizbeam - I've had several MD players and recorders over the years and finally purchased the E900. It may be the last player I ever buy. It is an absolutely stunning piece of technology.

First, the size of this unit has to be seen to be believed...
