I Simply Can't Get Enough of this Game!

Sat, 13 May 2000 13:57:40 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - Okay, let me bring this up right away: I am a Street Fighter Fanatic. It started when I pumped in hundreds of dollars into the local Street Fighter II back in 7th grade and it hasn't gotten much better since. I love the control, the insane moves, and...

GoToWorld.com: Gotoworld Should Go To He--

Sat, 13 May 2000 13:27:07 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - Ahhh, Gotoworld.com...They promise you a decent pay rate of about $12CPM, but they simply lie. In reality, it's closer to $3CPM, but even that does not add up right. For surfing 40 hours last month (the maximum you're allowed to), I did not make $20,...

Roxio DirectCD 2.x: Make Your CD-R/W Drive into a Giant Floppy!

Sat, 13 May 2000 03:45:16 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - Have you ever wanted to add just one file to your CD-R or RW disc but didn't want to burn an entire disc at the time? That's the motivation behind DirectCD. By allowing you to simply drag and drop files onto your CD-R/W drive's icon, DirectCD...

Roxio Easy CD Creator 3.x: Make CD's with Ease!

Fri, 12 May 2000 18:46:55 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - Adaptec Easy CD Creator 3.5c is not the newest CD-Recording/Copying program from Adaptec, but it is a worthy title nonetheless. I have copied and created over 100 CD's using this program with my Plextor 8x20 and have never produced a coaster.

Archived Computer Hardware Reviews: Intel's Xeon...X-Cellent but X-Pensive

Tue, 9 May 2000 01:07:27 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - Judging by the fact that this category didn't exist up until a few minutes ago, I'm presuming many of you are unfamiliar with Intel's Xeon line of processors. Why? Because unless you're a graphics professional or deploy fantastically expensive servers...

Invictus--It Hurts So Good.

Sat, 22 Apr 2000 14:26:34 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - First off, Invictus is one of the most addictive RPG-esque games I've come across in a while. So addictive, in fact, that even when it kicks me out to the desktop every five minutes, I rush back in to the game to play some more (but I'll discuss that...

It's No Quake3....but in a good way

Fri, 21 Apr 2000 22:20:23 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - I'm a first person shooter (FPS) junkie. I've been addicted to them since Wolfenstein on my dad's old 386 and it looks like I'm still hooked. However, while Id may have started the whole "shoot your friends" (virtually, of course) campaign,...

Simpsons, The: D'Oh-licious!

Thu, 20 Apr 2000 09:08:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - I've watched The Simpsons since it first debuted on The Tracey Ullman show and have enjoyed it all along (although in retrospect, I have no idea what I found so hysterical about those early "episodes").

The characters, in their...

It's Good To Be Home

Tue, 18 Apr 2000 16:29:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - I love NT, always have, but Win98 was an evil temptress with her lure of Plug and Play and superior DirectX support. However, now that Win2k Pro, Server, and Advanced Server are out, I can safely return to the NT kernel for both my business AND gaming...

Archived Computer Hardware Reviews: Money better spent elsewhere?

Tue, 18 Apr 2000 15:50:22 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - There's no question about it: the AMD Athlon running at 1GHz is certainly a juggernaut in the PC realm. But the real question is, "What do you need it for?"

Sure, there are definitely some people out there who need this sort of...

Chandler Bing on Tulane, "Could it SUCK any more?"

Tue, 18 Apr 2000 15:10:16 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - I had a really entertaining review of Tulane's suck-ery, but their server went down and I lost it. How appropriate.

Anyway, here's the gist for those of you who are hooked on Cliffs' Notes:

New Orleans is not the brochure you...

3Dfx Voodoo3 3000: Last Year's Technology

Tue, 18 Apr 2000 14:56:06 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - Don't get me wrong. I enjoy my Voodoo3 and it's a solid performer, but it is definitely last year's technology (if not older).

Besides its many hardware limitations (no 3D true colour capability, a max of 16MB RAM, no EMBM, etc.), its...

Hewlett Packard HP DeskJet 895cse Ink-jet Printer: A Top Notch Job

Tue, 18 Apr 2000 14:45:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - With both a USB and parallel port connection, this printer is aimed at pleasing everybody...and it does!

Firstly, the issue of speed needs to be addressed. In draft mode, this printer is insanely quick. I believe the rated speed is about 11...

Iomega Jaz family: Jaz--A fine drive--WHEN it works...

Mon, 17 Apr 2000 01:00:41 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - Iomega's 2GB Ultra SCSI removeable drive works quite nicely-when it works. I've replaced three drives (two internal, one external) in the course of two years.

When the drive is properly functioning, it typically transfers rate a little faster...

An Excellent Bargain!

Mon, 17 Apr 2000 00:39:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - The ACS-48's can often be found for around $100 and are well worth it. The bass is outstanding and the satellites produce very clear and rich sound.

The bass has control for the amount of bass produced while the right satellite speaker has...

Archived Computer Hardware Reviews: Viewsonic G790--A Decent Monitor at a Fair Price

Mon, 17 Apr 2000 00:23:49 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - The G790 was Viewsonic's first 19 inch monitor so it's a mixed bag of things. First off, it's a solid monitor with good (but not excellent) image quality. On the other hand, it's a first generation product, which can often be problematic.

Dell Dimension XPS B 733r: XPS B Series--Not for Everyone

Sun, 16 Apr 2000 00:31:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mojobobo - While Dell's XPS B series of PC's offers blistering fast performance (largely due to the availability of their 64MB Geforce card), many of the issues surrounding the Intel i820 chipset will leave users looking elsewhere.

The i820's use of...
