rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author halamtx - I had a pretty bad experience with this card. First one I bought shot 2 frames in my camera then froze. After talking to tech support they decided it was the card so I sent it back. They sent me a replacement. On the first day I had the new card I...

Convience and stability

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author halamtx - This attachment is a great help in my line of work. I do mostly editorial/news photography. It turns your D-100 into a more pro feeling camera body. It really adds comfort for vertical shots and makes the camera easier to grip.. The grip also has...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author halamtx - After doing much comparison shopping, I purchased the Western Digital 80G firewire drive. I paid around $227 at a Fry's electronics store and it came with a $30 mail-in rebate.

When I got it out of the box, it took about 5 minutes to get it...

The Rolls Royce of walkmans

Mon, 27 Jan 2003 03:00:13 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author halamtx - First of all let me say that I bought my walkman for 19.99 instead of the list price because it was an open box product. For what I paid for it is the best walkman I've ever had. I certainly wouldn't have paid $85 for it though because it doesn't even...

Thu, 16 May 2002 03:56:32 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author halamtx - A friend told me Prestos are like t-shirts for your feet. With recommendation like that, I had to give them a try. I bought the Presto Changos womens shoes. From the moment I put them on I fell in love. The shoes molded to my feet and fit snugly but...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author halamtx - Anyone with interest in Steve Earle's music should pick up this book. Although this first attempt at prose is a bit rough around the edges at times the stories are just as engaging and provacative as his narative style songwriting.

It's the best part of waking up!

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author halamtx - If you can believe, I keep the coffee maker near my bed and when it starts brewing in the morning it wakes me up with it's gurggling and aroma. I had to resort to this after I kept sleeping through my alarm. So mornings for me are a little easier now...

Thu, 12 Apr 2001 11:34:16 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author halamtx - The love affair between me and my monitor is now two years old and going strong.

I use my monitor mostly for digital photo imaging. For this purpose the monitor has to be completely sharp and detailed. I'm used to using nice big Radius...

A Think Piece

Wed, 11 Apr 2001 14:11:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author halamtx - Iris Dement caught quite a bit of heat from this release. She said once in an interview, "Some of what I've said [in this album] will make some people mad. It might even make some people hate me. I don't like the idea of being hated, and I've lost a...

Good everyday speakers

Tue, 10 Apr 2001 14:06:42 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author halamtx - I bought these speakers because they were pretty cheap. I think I paid about $10 or $15.

I've been pretty happy with them. There is a power control, volume control, and a headset plugin on the right speaker so you don't have to reach very...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author halamtx - I bought me Jeep used about two years ago because a friend of mine had one and I really loved it. I've been really happy with my Jeep ever since I first bought it.

Great all-purpose shoe!

Tue, 10 Apr 2001 02:13:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author halamtx - It's really hard to think of anything bad to say about these shoes.

I bought these shoes because I owned a pair of Merrell sandals that I am also very happy with. I compared some Columbia and North Face footwear when I tries these on also. I...

Thu, 29 Mar 2001 01:27:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author halamtx - I am a professional newspaper photographer and I bought this lens when my old Nikon 50mm bit the dust. I usually stay away from the "off brands" but a friend had just bought a Sigma 105mm and was raving about the quality. I also needed a macro lens and...

Great example of the early work

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author halamtx - Ok, Emmylou Harris has released over 25 albums in her career. So why should you get this one? In my opinion it is one of her strongest efforts.

It exemplifies the edgier country sound she established early on in her career with the...
