Mon, 22 Jan 2001 14:37:22 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jse8 - I know that this opinion may not be read by a lot of people because it is about a motherboard, a little off the epinion highway mainstream. However, when I started building my own system earlier this year, a motherboard was the first thing I looked for,...

Wed, 10 May 2000 18:25:43 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jse8 - You won't ever have to worry about using that phrase if you visit Denmark. Translated, it simply means, "I don't speak Danish." Denmark is one of the easiest countries to visit for those of the English speaking world. Practically the whole...

Spectacular Setting

Sat, 29 Jan 2000 20:50:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jse8 - Chamonix is truly the crowned jewel of the French Alps. It is to say in as few words as possible, incredibly breathtaking. The small town exists primarily because Europe's tallest mountain looms above it. Besides that, there is some great skiing just...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author jse8 - I had heard so much about Paris that when I had the chance to go there, I was really excited. There is alot to see in Paris, so you'd better take at least two or better yet three days to explore everything in Paris. If you just want to see some of the...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jse8 - I was born and raised in Southern California and I must say that it is a wonderful to live and raise a family. It's also a great place to visit. The only drawback to going to California is that it is so big you really have to make a theme for your trip...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jse8 - After my wife and I purchased our Hi-8 Sony camcorder, we wanted to buy a VCR that would make good tapes. If you try to tape onto regular VCR's or Hi-Fi VCR's from Hi-8 camcorder, you lose alot of resolution.

We went to the local electronics...

Mon, 10 Jan 2000 23:26:36 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jse8 - The Kuna Indians of the San Blas Island of Panama are some of the most extraordinary in all of the world. Somehow, even though they are part of the country of Panama, they've been able to maintain their own culture, economy, government, language and way...

San Blas Culture

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jse8 - I honestly feel that there are very few cultures still existing in the world like that of the natives of the San Blas islands of Panama. The people are very laid back and it seems as if they really don't have a care in the world, even though when they do...
