Perfect for Everyday Use

Wed, 28 Apr 2004 14:11:04 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lilbigblue - This burner has worked with every type of media it advertises. DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW. I have only produced a few coasters but that was only when the drive itself had a problem, which was quickly rectified (see below). TDK has been good with...

Well, listen again folks, believe it or not 'N Sync is trying very hard to veer off the teeny-bopper pop music style into something, more, how do i put this delicately...different.

A Good Business Decision

Tue, 19 Jun 2001 18:10:26 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lilbigblue - I'm usually not one who would encourage anybody to invest over $3,000 for a computer (desktop or laptop). However, I have been at my new job for just 2 weeks, and I have fallen in love with the laptop they gave me. At first they were going to give me...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author lilbigblue - Cable was not available. Earthlink failed to install because Bell Atlantic/Verizon refused to upgrade my phone lines. 56K modem was too slow (and I have 4 roommates). Last resort: Verizon Online DSL. The reason why my apartment was eligible for this...

Addr.com Web Hosting: Addr.com = Definitely What You Pay For

Sun, 29 Oct 2000 00:41:34 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author lilbigblue - It's inexpensive. That's about all Addr.com webhosting was. Many would argue that at $7.95 a month it's a bargain, but for $7.95 you are getting nothing but calls to customer service and lengthy and many emails to their support department.

Mindless DSL

Thu, 5 Oct 2000 02:26:04 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author lilbigblue - If you haven't read my epinion on Verizon/Bell Atlantic service, I suggest you read it after this opinion.

Thu, 3 Aug 2000 01:18:34 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author lilbigblue - 2 years ago when I purchased my Dell Dimension XPS R 350, I thought I was getting a great deal. I needed a complete system for college, and ordering from a company like Dell or Compaq was the only option I gave myself. Well, that was a mistake.
