Video card fans in particular can get a bit noisy. No doubt they offer better cooling than any passive design (i.e. only a heatsink to dissipate the GPU heat) and most higher-end cards tend to have them, but when I... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~305936043652 Sun, 14 Jan 2007 07:12:21 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_305936043652?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_301328076420?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gav6791 - The first thing a person who is into gaming will notice about this controller - or certainly should - is that the WingMan Action has only ONE analog stick, not the two that are now pretty much standard in console gaming. So - if you typically use the two... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~301328076420 Thu, 4 Jan 2007 05:02:28 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_301328076420?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_288531975812?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gav6791 - This camera has more strengths than weaknesses and is worth considering if you're in the market for a pocket-sized camera. Being a dual lens setup allows this camera to include a 23mm wide angle lens, which is great for indoor pictures or any other... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~288531975812 Thu, 7 Dec 2006 05:05:27 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_288531975812?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_239147454084?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author gav6791 - The camera I bought was the Sony DSC-S90L, an import model (available through some Canadian suppliers for a little while longer) and came in a medium blue color accented with chrome. I did extensive research before I gave this one a shot - but I was... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~239147454084 Thu, 29 Jun 2006 04:00:52 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_239147454084?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_219479117444?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gav6791 - Audiophiles know the name Klipsch as high end speakers, and as many DVD systems skimp in this area, I chose this medium priced Samsung all-in-one DVD system. I was not disappointed. It boasts a 5 disc carousel, Progressive Scan, great sound and video... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~219479117444 Wed, 1 Feb 2006 01:01:41 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_219479117444?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_166758092420?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gav6791 - Briefly, there are better choices for a DVD player out there in terms of picture quality - the "blacks" on this player tend to be dark green. But there are a few reasons to consider this model. One is the inclusion of a compactflash card slot - this... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~166758092420 Fri, 24 Dec 2004 21:58:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_166758092420?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_166756519556?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gav6791 - Looking for a 19" CRT to clutter up your desktop? Viewsonic's A90f+ may be worth considering. Sharpness is very good. Not quite as good as my 17" Sony. On screen controls for: Contrast/Brightness, H-size/ position, V-size/position, zoom,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~166756519556 Fri, 24 Dec 2004 21:27:05 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_166756519556?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_166057774724?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gav6791 - I switched from mice to trackballs a few years ago and am glad I did. Unfortunately, the old analog trackballs needed to be cleaned often because the rubber rollers that detect movement were also dust and grease magnets. The cursor would stop moving... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~166057774724 Sun, 19 Dec 2004 17:32:31 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_166057774724?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_166050762372?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author gav6791 - I saw this model my local Target and had to have it - it was part of the LIV collection and was white with light green. The major problem with it is the lack of battery backup, other than that it is a fine performer. A minor problem is the LCD... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~166050762372 Sun, 19 Dec 2004 16:20:48 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_166050762372?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_166041587332?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gav6791 - I bought this camera to replace an aging Kodak, as it was getting a bit fussy in it's old age. When shopping for a new camera, I based my choice on three criteria - megapixels, price, and style. The Kodak was only 1 megapixel, which limits your picture... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~166041587332 Sun, 19 Dec 2004 15:26:30 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_166041587332?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_165985226372?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author gav6791 - Remember the sound of a single speaker inside a large plastic box that your Apple II+ used to make? Right there on your desktop? Sure you do! Well NOW you can have that experience again with the Advent AV190 speaker system. Simply place the 4" tall... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~165985226372 Sun, 19 Dec 2004 00:30:25 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_165985226372?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_165888102020?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gav6791 - In brief, the speakers are not boxes but plastic molded trapezoids, only a few inches deep, and Sony utilizes fancy active electronics to achieve excellent sound. The surround sound setting is equally nice. Very open, wide, ambient sound. Very musical... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~165888102020 Sat, 18 Dec 2004 02:47:35 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_165888102020?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_165886267012?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gav6791 - Bought in 2002 to replace a lovely Sony system. Paid $199 at lifestyle fascination. Front panel LIGHTS UP in a rainbow of available colors, backlit by led, and can be programmed for different colors each day, or to change at random every 2 seconds for a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~165886267012 Sat, 18 Dec 2004 02:13:18 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_165886267012?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_165884890756?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gav6791 - Aesthetically these are the loveliest headphones I have owned. They are also sturdy, and the cord is a good ten feet long. For under a hundred bucks these headphones score a perfect 10! New details emerge, bass is tight, and that's just plugged into a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~165884890756 Sat, 18 Dec 2004 01:50:28 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_165884890756?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_78693568132?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gav6791 - I paid fifty dollars for these speakers at Circuit City. I like the quality of most Creative products and so I decided to give these speakers a try. Thus far I am quite pleased with them. For one thing, they are wall mountable, only about 2 1/2 inches... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~78693568132 Mon, 21 Oct 2002 00:20:00 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_78693568132?linkin_id=8003929
