The World of Children comes to light in Atwood's "Cat's Eye"

Sat, 28 Feb 2004 07:34:43 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mishchenko - Personally, I have never been a big fan of Margaret Atwood's. Having been subjected to the wreck of a novel that is "Alias Grace" in high school and, much later, "The Handmaid's Tale", I had formed an opinion of Atwood as an author deserving a place on...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mishchenko - Munich, or rather Munchen, is a fascinating city. Although I have heard people that have lived here...

Wireless Barricade: A Solid Choice

Tue, 12 Mar 2002 07:39:14 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mishchenko - UPDATE: It is now 2004 and the router is still alive and kicking after over two years or so. Extra points for durability! I was exploring options for setting up a wireless home network and stumbled onto the SMC Barricade by chance (a local ad). After...

HP Pavilion Duron 900MHz / 10GB / 256MB / 14.1" TFT / WinXP / Notebook Computer: The Best Value for a Laptop (IMHO)

Sat, 5 Jan 2002 04:17:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mishchenko - HP N5415 is an excellent laptop for the price (NOTE: the price I listed is what I paid after a 20% discount coupon and the $100 mail-in rebate from HP). It flat out beats the competition in its category in terms of value - the only other Duron laptop...

The Little CD Burner That Could!

Thu, 30 Aug 2001 11:22:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mishchenko - This CD burner is by now a little outdated. This means that you should be able to find it for under $100. When I bought it almost three years ago, it was an excellent bargain at $165. I would have to say that overall, it has proven to be an excellent...

Apes Galore! (NOT a Spolier)

Sat, 28 Jul 2001 02:57:00 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mishchenko - First of all, this e-pinion does not reveal major parts of the plot or its ending.

I would also like to warn any potential viewers. This movie was not really worth all of the $8 I paid for it. I would only recommend paying full price if you're...

PROS:

1) Speedy

This router is quite speedy. Once you set it up, it will deliver the advertised speed of 100 Mbps (unless...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author mishchenko - Here's the lowdown on this beer for you:

PROS:

1) Nice Logo and Design / Popularity Factor

This beer has a very distinct logo and similarly recognizable packaging. Everyone in the pub will know you're drinking Guinness...

HL-330H is a definite bang for your buck!

Mon, 23 Jul 2001 16:08:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mishchenko - For only CDN $8 (U.S. $5), this light was one of the best bargains I have ever gotten.

While the suggested retail price of the unit is U.S. $10 (according to ePinions), it is still a great value at that price. Without much further ado, here is...
