Best Mouse I've Ever Owned

Wed, 9 May 2001 21:06:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author joe52 - Intro

I bought this mouse several months ago to replace a Logitech scroll mouse. I really liked my Logitech, but I got jealous of my roommates Intellimouse Optical. His primary reason for choosing it over the more expensive Intellimouse...

Affordable Luxury

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author joe52 - Intro

I bought a 2000 4 door Honda Accord EX V6 in August 2000 to replace a Subaru Outback that was coming off lease. The two biggest factors in my decision were price and power. I was really tired of driving a car with sluggish...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author joe52 - The Basics

I drove a leased 1998 Subaru Outback wagon from August of 1997 through the summer of 2000. Mine had the cold weather package, a cd player, and remote keyless entry (these were all optional on this car). My Outback served me well...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author joe52 - The Setup

I have used a Dell Latitude CPx at work for the last couple of months. The machine that I was given to work with was a 650 Mhz model with 256 megs of RAM and an 18 gig hard drive. It was running Windows NT4 and has a Xircom 10/100...

Handspring Visor Deluxe Handheld: Not For Me

Thu, 3 Aug 2000 01:18:09 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author joe52 - Intro

I bought a Handspring Visor Deluxe back in October of 1999 when they were still a new product. It took something like 6 weeks to get mine, and when I did I was excited. All of my friends had Palm III's and my Visor had more memory and...

Why?

I recently moved to Cambridge, MA after graduating from college and I needed (and I do mean need because high speed Internet access is highly addictive and I had it in...

Stylish in town, maybe even good for running

Thu, 29 Jun 2000 02:13:48 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author joe52 - background

I have been wearing New Balance trail running sneakers as my everyday shoes for a couple of years. I am not a runner. I do not claim to be one. I only run when I am in a hurry to get somewhere. I do find myself on trails...

AOpen FM56 SM: Buy a good modem (not this one)

Thu, 15 Jun 2000 03:54:15 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author joe52 - Why?

I bought the Aopen FM56-SM last summer because I needed a cheap, functional modem for my desktop pc. I usually use ethernet for my network connection, but I spend summers at home with my family when I am forced to use dialup Internet...

Loud and Cheap

Wed, 31 May 2000 03:47:59 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author joe52 - Ok, so loud is probably not the first thing you're looking for in a new cd-rom drive, but loudness is something that this Acer delivers. Like other cheap high speed drives, it sounds like a small jet engine when you first drop in a cd and it spins up...

One Fast Ride

Wed, 24 May 2000 10:36:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author joe52 - I have been riding a 2000 Trek 2200 for almost three months and I am very happy with it. The 2200 is very light (my 56cm weighs about 20 pounds even) for the money. The frame is stiff, though I am not yet sure what I really think of the Icon Air Rail...

A Great Little Mouse

Thu, 18 May 2000 05:27:45 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author joe52 - I have been using the Logitech USB wheel mouse on my primary computer for about 9 months and I am very pleased with it. I must say that I paid a fair amount less than $40 for it, though it might even be a worthwhile purchase at its full price. The...

Ignifuge: Easy Money

Wed, 17 May 2000 15:24:05 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author joe52 - upadate: I have used Ignifige for almost a year, and I have satisfied every requirement that I can find on their site to receive a payment, but I have yet to receive a dime from them. They have owed me more than their $20 payment minimum for...

ATI Rage Fury Pro: Serious Gamers Need Not Apply

Sun, 14 May 2000 02:53:12 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author joe52 - I want to start by saying that I'm a big fan of ATI graphics cards. My last card was a Rage Pro. Now I'm running a Rage Fury Pro in a K6-2 system with 192 megs of RAM and Win98. Compared to my old Rage Pro, the Rage Fury Pro is a huge step up, but...

A solid performer

Sat, 13 May 2000 23:10:00 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author joe52 - I purchased a Nokia 447Xi Plus in September 1999. I paid about $250 for it then, though I have no idea what it sells for these days. When I bought this monitor I had never seen one, but the specs looked good, the price was right, and I needed a new...

A solid XC performer

Sat, 13 May 2000 04:27:46 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author joe52 - I have been riding a '99 Trek 8000 for a year and I have been really happy with it. I bought the 8000 for its great mix of parts and light frame at a relatively (it was in my price range) reasonable price. The 2000 version looks even nicer (I really...
