Liquid Metal is both sturdy and looks cool

Thu, 17 Aug 2006 20:01:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - This is more than just the most durable, fastest, and coolest looking Flash Drive money can buy right now. It also has U3, which makes it the most technologically advanced. It looks much nicer, and is about 25% shorter than comparable PNY flash drives...

Acronis True Image 8.0 ( Windows ): Best Imaging Backup Program I've Ever Used

Mon, 28 Mar 2005 22:41:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - I'm currently doing QA work for a company where I constantly destroy my windows partition, modify partitions, and need to quickly change my machine between different service pack variations of Windows 2000 and XP. Up until I found Acronis, I was using...

Want a Cheap, but Good Quality LCD Monitor?

Sun, 1 Dec 2002 07:52:05 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - At my old job, a temporary desk was set up at the edge of a drafting table for a new trial employee. (Feel for the suffering of those just out of college seeking experience wherever they can.). I set up an old computer, with old peripherals for his...

High Quality Keyboard at a Low Price!

Tue, 29 Oct 2002 08:46:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - This is probably the best valued keyboard I’ve found to date. At only approximately $25, this is a high quality keyboard, with a handful of extra buttons.

As a fast typist, I can really notice the difference between a well designed...

Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force: As Close to Being in an Episode of Star Trek Voyager as it Gets.

Sun, 29 Sep 2002 07:22:51 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - This game is for anyone who enjoys watching episodes of Star Trek. Especially the television series “Voyager”. This game actually manages to capture not just the look and feel of the television show, but it actually captures a lot of the...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - "The music is the star, and I am just a minor player in my own life story"

- Tony Wilson, as played by Steve Coogan

Let me say this up front: This movie is really something special.

The movie starts with one of the most...

Microsoft Actually Made Quality Hardware that Doesn't Conflict with Non-Microsoft Software!

Tue, 17 Sep 2002 23:45:21 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - The most impressive thing to me about this keyboard is that it isn’t just another Microsoft marketing tool. I mean, it would be really easy for Microsoft to have added a number of buttons that only operate Microsoft products, but instead they made the...

"System Shock 2" Meets "Thief" and It Might be Greater than Both.

Fri, 30 Aug 2002 19:12:27 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - I can’t believe I waited so long to play this game. In a time when so many 1st person shooters have single player games that last maybe ten hours, this one could possibly have one hundred hours of game time behind it. In a time when so many 1st person...

How Could a Smart, Quirky Film Like "Ghost World" Ever be Released During the Summer?

Mon, 26 Aug 2002 01:26:50 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - This movie starts off with a lie, and ends very unsatisfactorily, but still I really liked this film, and am very glad that I saw it.

Like so many really great independent films, like “Tao of Steve” & “The Opposite of Sex”, “Ghost World” does...

Defender of the Crown for Windows: While not the greatest game, it Certainly brings back fond Memories.

Fri, 23 Aug 2002 19:51:42 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - It is very appropriate that the new programmers of this game refer to it as the original game “digitally remastered”. This is a term commonly used for today’s re-releases of films onto the big screen or onto DVD that have had an analog or video transfer...

This is What Would Happen if the USA Network and Lifetime Produced a Movie Together.

Wed, 21 Aug 2002 02:58:39 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - Did anyone see this film besides me? I mean there are two other reviews on the site, but looking at the IMDB entry, it only made $226,792 in 3 weeks, and only played in 175 screens. I thought it was fairly well advertised, opened moderately well with...

LinkSys 5 port Switch w/ EZXS55W 10/100 Card: Perfection, if you need to connect multiple computers together.

Wed, 14 Aug 2002 22:57:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - The first thing I noticed when I took this out of the box was how small it is. When did Switches become so tiny? When I purchased some hubs made by Netgear around 18 months previously, those models were more than twice as large (with one less port),...

You'll have to look very hard to find something to complain about with this game.

Sat, 10 Aug 2002 10:14:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - Every review starts with a comment or opinion in regards to this game being the ‘next’ Diablo. Well, my vote is that it really is, and that it deserves all the praise that it is getting. Dungeon Siege has most of what made Diablo so addicting, fixes...

An Amazing Female Performance in an Intelligent Almost-Thriller.

Sat, 27 Jul 2002 03:31:25 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - When I originally wrote a review of this film back in August of last year, I started off by saying:

"The Deep End" may be a low-budget independent film with little chance of box office success, but there is one thing that I'm willing to bet on...

Bart Simpson wouldn't print "This Bites" on it.

Thu, 11 Jul 2002 05:44:11 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - First off, I’ll give a gold star to anyone who gets the reference I’m making with the title.

I remember 25 years ago seeing my parents get all excited about a little label maker. It was bright red, and had a circular wheel that you would...

For Windows 2000 MCSE, It's the Standard, and Deservedly So.

Fri, 5 Jul 2002 02:36:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - My friend originally showed me this book simply in order to impress me by the sheer size of it. He was taking a class for getting your MCSE certification at our local Community College. This is a brand new class, and it filled up beyond capacity...

Hi-Val 52X IDE CD-ROM Kit: I was Looking for a Cheap CD-ROM and Found a Quality One.

Mon, 24 Jun 2002 05:45:29 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - I was working on a computer system that had been reported to me as smoking and burnt out. It turns out that aside from the power supply, the motherboard, the graphics card, the SCSI card and even the CD-ROM drive had also been destroyed. I won’t even...

If You Like Playing Sniper, Then This Game is for You.

Tue, 11 Jun 2002 03:38:42 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - Delta Force Land Warrior is the best choice for a 1st person shooter for people who really love to play sniper.

This is the first game from the makers of the very popular Comanche and Armored Fist games to switch from using their voxel...

Quality Burner at a Cheap Price, but Without Adequate Software.

Sat, 18 May 2002 05:09:10 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - In any system I’ve ever built or bought, if it includes a CD burner, I make sure to also include a regular CD-ROM. One important reason is to make copying CDs much more convenient than having to first read the source CD into an image file on the hard...

“From Hell” Really Works, Even with so Much Against it.

Mon, 22 Apr 2002 05:22:26 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - I’m really torn about how I feel about this movie. On hand I am very impressed. On the other, I’m horribly disappointed. Let me state though, that the majority of my disappointment comes from the fact that I had recently read the Graphic Novel that...

At Least it isn’t “Kiss Meets the Phantom in the Park”

Sun, 14 Apr 2002 02:21:31 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - It would be funny enough if this game were just based on the Heavy Metal band Kiss itself. Actually, it is based on a comic book staring the members of Kiss and written by Todd McFarlane. I was not really a Kiss fan before I played this game, but I do...

Do All $10 Speakers Sound This Good?

Thu, 11 Apr 2002 19:56:17 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - At work, I was placing my Office Depot order, and I was thinking about the fact that the computer at my desk didn’t have any speakers. The machine has a sound card, but the speakers had been removed and put on someone else’s machine before I got here...

It Feels Like a Saturday Night Live Skit, but Isn’t.

Fri, 29 Mar 2002 21:59:15 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - This isn’t a great comedy, but I found myself liking it more than I probably should have. It could have been merely really really stupid, but I actually did laugh out loud quite a bit.

There was one moment that was almost true genius...

Do you Keep Breaking or Losing your Cell Phone? Try Out this One!

Wed, 27 Mar 2002 21:28:00 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - I am currently doing contract work for a civil landscape contracting company. They have numerous men in the field who work large jobs that extend over miles of highway. Keeping them in contact with supervisors via cell phones can really make their work...

This Movie is Great, and Not Just Because of Denzel Washington’s Performance.

Mon, 18 Mar 2002 21:38:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author grimjack2 - Even though I was inundated by the commercials, and had even heard a TV review of the film, “Training Day” turned out not to be what I thought it would be. I had assumed that it would be a little more 'Dirty Harry' with Denzel Washington playing a good...
