Powerbook : Refined and Perfected

Fri, 3 Jan 2003 09:13:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author iBen - Apple’s Flagship Powerbook G4 has long stood out from its peers and rivals. No one has been able to match its combination of thin design, huge screen, light weight, long battery life, great performance, and functionality. In its latest incarnation,...

Evolutionary, Not Revolutionary

Fri, 27 Jul 2001 19:29:01 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author iBen - The iMac is a revolutionary, award winning computer design that is easy to set up and easy on the eyes as well… at least it was 2 years ago when the exact same egg-shaped design was introduced! When Steve Jobs introduced the "new" iMac in the middle of...

Ain't no toilet seat...

Sat, 23 Jun 2001 17:18:28 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author iBen - The first iBook was, like the first iMac, trying to make too radical of a statement. The monstrosity weighed in at nearly 7 pounds. When opened, it looked like an orange toilet seat. When closed, it looked like a Hello Kitty purse (especially with that...

iMac: For shame!

Mon, 31 Jul 2000 19:43:12 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author iBen - This was one of the first commercials I've ever seen for Epinions.com. Frankly, before I saw this commercial, I was very interested in what people told me about Epinions.com. However, this commercial nearly turned me away from this site completely. I...

Cubism is in...

Mon, 31 Jul 2000 10:18:44 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author iBen - If there was any doubt before that Apple was thinking different, the Cube silences them all. When I describe the Cube to people, I start out by telling them to imagine the top of the line Power Mac G4 tower, with the supercomputer on a chip and...

Again with the colors!

Mon, 31 Jul 2000 09:13:37 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author iBen - As I watched Steve do his thing on stage at Macworld Expo and watched as three new colors for the iMac rolled out behind him, I couldn't help but laugh. I love the new colors and all, but you have to imagine that somewhere in the crowd is a Mac...

iMac Better than ever!

Sat, 29 Jul 2000 02:09:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author iBen - On the morning of July 19, 2000, thousands of people waited impatiently outside the Jacob Javits center in New York City. A sense of inevitability could be felt in the air as the people filed into the exhibit hall, where the master showman himself, Steve...

Space... The Final Frontier...

Sat, 29 Jul 2000 01:02:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author iBen - The world of Real Time Strategy has stagnated significantly since the early years. Many games have come and gone, but the same game model has remained the same since the original Warcraft and C&C. The player controlled his troops as an omnipotent...

Unreal Tournament for Windows: Gotta Frag 'em All!

Thu, 27 Jul 2000 02:22:03 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author iBen - Not long ago, any game named "Quake" was, hands down, the king of First Person Shooters. Well, the revolution has come, and the king is dead… LONG LIVE THE KING! Unreal Tournament sent shockwaves through the gaming world when it beat Quake III...

Thu, 27 Jul 2000 00:43:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author iBen - Kensignton made a big name for itself many years ago with its original Turbo Mouse and Expert Mouse designs. The two mice were legendary for their solid feel and was a must-have for professionals. The latest revision, the Expert Mouse 5.0 and Turbo Mouse...

Tue, 25 Jul 2000 09:40:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author iBen - iDisk is a free service that any Mac user running Mac OS 9 or later can take advantage of. Running through the iTools web site, iDisk gives each user 20MB of free storage on Apple's own servers.

The first thing that is important about iDisk is...

Very Cool!

Tue, 25 Jul 2000 09:29:23 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author iBen - Comic book movies rarely have much in the plot departement. Most of the time, they are crude port-overs from the comic book that end up being too dumb for its own good. The last two Batman movies are examples of almost complete bombs. X-men could have...

OOHHH YES!

Wed, 5 Jul 2000 06:17:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author iBen - I got one of the original American Playstations many years ago and one of the selling points was this little game called Wipeout. For a 1st generation game, it was amazing, with fast racing graphics that many, including Star Wars Racer, have taken...

Excellent Expansion Pack

Wed, 5 Jul 2000 05:53:53 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author iBen - Rainbow Six blew the gaming world away in 1997 with its realistic approach to FPS. Red Storm decided to follow it up with an unimpressive map pack, Eagle Watch. It added a few maps, weapons, and characters but really didn't change the way the game was...
