Wed, 30 May 2001 11:45:28 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - What is it?

MyECom: HUH?

Fri, 18 May 2001 23:45:11 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - myecom.net is definitely one of the more puzzling programs out there in the pay-to-surf industry. It is several programs on one:

1) A get-paid-to-surf-the-net program

2) A get-paid-to-click program

3) A downline builder...

Quicken TurboTax: Never by hand again

Fri, 30 Mar 2001 15:36:24 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - TurboTax 2000 is definitely a must have for people with not so complex tax returns. I say that because I didn't have such things as rental properties, time shares, offshore tax exempt casino operations, etc, but did have a nice complex schedule-D which...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - When my wife wanted to get my son a noisy farm several months ago, I figured, "Oh great, something else to sing "Old McDonald"" to. But it turned out a lot better than that.

This is a Little People product, so already I knew it must be pretty...

School-Time for Little One

Mon, 12 Mar 2001 15:05:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - For whatever reason, my 19 month old has a fascination with buses. One of his favorite toys was a little matchbox bus. He always pointed to buses while out in the car and street. So it came as no suprise that the Little People School Bus became...

Loud Taddy

Wed, 7 Mar 2001 18:09:26 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - My son loves Tad, even though he's only 18 months old and can barely push the buttons. He just likes hearing the sounds and songs.

Description

Tue, 13 Feb 2001 13:32:24 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - My 18 month old son got this for his one year birthday. Although he still doesn't understand the concept of a garage, he still loves the thing.

MPTrip MP3-CD Player: Get a bit more for less

Wed, 31 Jan 2001 11:27:21 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - Introduction

I've become more and more into music since the advent of the mp3 format. When mp3 players came out, I though they were the greatest inventions ever made (well, ok, they rank up there). Unfortunately, when one thinks of mp3...

Creamy, Messy, and Helpful

Tue, 9 Jan 2001 15:27:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - I always hated seeing my son's diaper rash. Looked too much like sunburn to me, and figured it's gotta hurt. Desitin ointment is a great solution. It really does get rid of the rash. This is definitely a must for little ones who (luckily) like to sleep...

Put out the fire, little one

Tue, 9 Jan 2001 12:09:05 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - My 1 year old stood (with a little wobbling) in awe at this new toy of his. Here was this truck almost the size of him, with all sorts of fancy buttons, and he had no clue what to do with it. So like all little toddlers, he climbed aboard.

Pay Cheap, get a bit more

Sun, 31 Dec 2000 01:19:38 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - This little printer was a major step up from my very old Panasonic KXP-1124 dot matrix printer that I had since 1990. So I was naturally excited to finally be able to print color photos. But I really wondered if they would come out very good,...

Archived Autos & Motorsports Reviews: Slick, lean, and smooth!

Sat, 30 Dec 2000 00:50:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - This is a product that the manufacturer should be proud of.

What is it?

Rain-X is what I call a miracle product. By applying it to your windshield (on the outside), it essentially takes the place of wipers. No, it doesn't wipe...

Thu, 28 Dec 2000 13:31:27 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - MyPoints is finally a reward program that is

Thu, 28 Dec 2000 01:32:52 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - This email program looked like a great piece of work.

1) browser based email (allowed access from anywhere on the net, and allowed usage of ad-bars like AllAdvantage, which required activity on the browser to get paid)

2) Lots of functionality...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - One day I was wondering what to do about my lack of disk space problem, and also anticipated need more for since I just got a cable modem and needed a place to store all the mp3's that I was going to download. As well as hold all the pictures that I...

Wed, 13 Dec 2000 15:31:51 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - Cashsurfers is yet another program in the neverending saga of pay-to-surf programs. For those not initiated, CS puts an advertising bar at the bottom of the screen and blasts ads at you. For that inconvenience, you get paid a few cents per hour.

Italian Dining without the Italian

Tue, 12 Dec 2000 16:25:04 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - Carrabbas is a great example of Italian food without the Italian atmosphere. In fact, it has the atmosphere of Outback Steakhouse (which makes sense, since they're owned by the same company). But it also has the quality of Outback, which is a definite...

Shooting for the Stars

Fri, 1 Dec 2000 12:45:46 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - Alpha Centauri is the sequel to Sid Meier's Civilization II. The original does not have to be played to enjoy this game, but it makes learning the game a bit easier, since there are many similarities.

Bally Astrocade: The game system that could have but didn't.

Fri, 20 Oct 2000 17:02:24 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author marrone - The Bally system was truly a work of art. Released at about the same time as the Atari 2600, it had many advantages over it. Unfortunately, marketing was not one of them, and that's what eventually killed the system.

The system came with 4...
