My bike is no exception, a 1980 model Miyata 610, which I bought new in April of 1980.The replacement tires I had bought in the '90s were still on the bike back in the spring of this year when,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~485152493188 Wed, 16 Sep 2009 10:44:16 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_485152493188?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_484955426436?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author harpitect - I've been cycling off and on for over 35 years. During that time, until recently, I had used plastic-base padded saddles, from a simple thinly-padded suede-covered plastic saddle, to a top of the line anatomic saddle with leather cover. These saddles had... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~484955426436 Mon, 14 Sep 2009 15:39:24 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_484955426436?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_484405644932?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author harpitect - We use Macs at home, exclusively. Before I retired I used Windows at my office, but I prefer Mac's OS X. Sometimes, due to the ubiquitous nature of Windows, it's hard to find peripherals that work with a Mac. I've had good success with Logitech products,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~484405644932 Wed, 9 Sep 2009 20:31:57 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_484405644932?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_484400205444?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author harpitect - A shower is a mundane activity, so an enhancement to the experience is welcome. I'd tried the handheld attachments that clip to the shower pipe, but they never lived up to the promise of multiple settings. Those units, no matter how I adjusted them, were... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~484400205444 Wed, 9 Sep 2009 19:47:22 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_484400205444?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_480257871492?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author harpitect - This review is for the CF-201C, which is identical to the CF-203GG except for finish; the 201 is white; the 203 is chrome. After buying a CF-203GG and liking it so much, I bought a CF-201C model for our second shower.

Toro Wheel Horse lawn tractor. The need to sharpen blades, clean the underside of the deck, change belts, and clear obstructions was getting harder... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~474951224964 Tue, 23 Jun 2009 12:28:37 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_474951224964?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_470999862916?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author harpitect - My current laptop is an Apple PowerBook G4 17" 1.67GHz. Like most of my computer purchases I bought this early-2005 PowerBook used. As an architect, I wanted the wide 17" screen that this model has for 3-D modeling. It works great for that purpose.

Our office had electric 3-hole punches that were really powerful, but also rather expensive.

The mask was so uncomfortable and prone to leak, and I slept so poorly with... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~446626893444 Thu, 2 Oct 2008 13:44:05 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_446626893444?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_420973153924?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author harpitect - Overview The 1991 Honda Accord EX wagon is a five-seater, if you&#146re skinny, but a four-seater for teenagers and up.

We've upgraded ours somewhat so that the original specs don't totally apply. I'm forced to use a PC at work, but at home we're strictly Mac.

This one is a 2001 GC Sport. Since it's the third GC we've owned, you can tell that we like Dodge minivans. They've served our family well since our first one, a 1990 model. I bought the GC Sport in July... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~383121395332 Thu, 28 Jun 2007 13:29:55 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_383121395332?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_383100751492?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author harpitect - Having used Toro walk mowers, both push and self-propelled for over 30 years, it was natural to look at Toro when I decided to buy a lawn tractor. For over twenty years, we used two Toro self-propelled mowers to keep our acre yard looking good.

They're durable mowers that provide a great cut. Of the walk-style mowers I've had, all but one have had aluminum decks, which contribute to the durability. I bought the 20037 Super Recycler new in 2002.

Reviews I'd read were pretty good, so I figured I couldn't lose much if I tried one of these. I was right.

HD-ready means it has no internal HD tuner. So, to get the most out of this TV I needed what's commonly called an STB, or set-top box. The LG LST-3510A filled the bill.
