D-Link Home DSL/Cable Modem Gateway and 4-port Switch: A good budget router, but still leaves much to be desired

Sat, 8 Dec 2001 10:47:39 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author manowar - Running a computer as a router 24/7 was too inefficient, so I went ahead and purchased one of these things. Time for my good, bad, and ugly review.

The good:

Sets up very easily. I had no problem getting it to work...

The best balance between power and portability... so far.

Fender finally makes a high quality product

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author manowar - To start off, I have been really impressed with this acoustic amp since I first heard it in 1998. I consider it to be the best lower end acoustic amp and a fine choice for most players who can't afford an expensive amp like Fishman's Performer Pro...

Adobe Photoshop 6: Mixed blessings, wait for a patch

Thu, 2 Nov 2000 22:17:23 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author manowar - I've been testing Photoshop 6.0 out for a couple of weeks now and am ready to pass a verdict, and unfortunately, I cannot pass a positive verdict here. Note that I am not an opponent of Adobe and I swear by their software on any occasion.

Solidly constructed Mahogany guitar

Fri, 29 Sep 2000 02:33:09 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author manowar - I have to admit that I am somewhat disappointed with this Guild model (both this and the Guide DCE1, which I have lots of experience playing) The guitar is fairly standard: rosewood fingerboard, sitka spruce top, and mahogany back and sides. One...

Great beater

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author manowar - The first guitar I bought and a great model for starting guitarists. Especially as people today tend to lean to Baby Taylors, Larrivee Parlors, etc. for starting guitars, I find that the Yamaha F series is still a good choice.

The first...

Great sounding entry level guitar

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author manowar - Taylor's choice of ovangkol for the 400 series struck me by surprise when the announced the choice some time ago. However, as I have played the 400 series, I am pleasantly surprised at its rich tone.

Taylor advertises ovangkol as...

Thu, 27 Jul 2000 06:37:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author manowar - Mitsubishi designed the Diamond Plus 91 to replace the aging old Diamond Pro 900U, which has caused a sensation with graphics professionals and gamers alike for years now. The Diamond Plus follows in the footsteps of its predecessors.

perfect for SOHO, not for large networks

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author manowar - The brother HL 1040 printer is rather sleek and compact. In terms of design, the paper tray is somewhat problematic. I have had a small number of paper jams which grow rather annoying if there is not enough paper in the paper tray. However, it is a...

WinRoute: Secure, NAT, firewall = great product

Mon, 12 Jun 2000 22:09:40 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author manowar - Upon the first download of this product from tiny software, Winroute Pro is deceivingly small. Being smaller than 1 mb would normally signal that this program is not robust--but that is hardly the case. Winroute, in comparison to many other...

Indesign v1.5 - Thumbs UP!

Sat, 22 Apr 2000 06:47:52 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author manowar - Adobe released Indesign v1.5, which seemed to be a collection of bug fixes and small editions, rather than a huge upgrade like Photoshop 5.0 to 5.5 was. However, I believe that Indesign v1.5 is a much stronger program overall.

First, Adobe...
