Why first time users should own an eMac

Sun, 21 Nov 2004 14:47:43 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - The eMac is one of the best bargain computers anyone can buy. I work on Macs and PCs for a living, and to be honest, in the beginning the eMac didn't impress me. The new iMac always got my attention with its slick design and flat LCD screen. However,...

Anne Rice rewrites the Matrix

Sun, 21 Sep 2003 00:42:20 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - I did enjoy the new spin on the old vampire story- a feud between vampires and werewolves plus a few new twists. Everyone in this movie is pack'n guns and gunplay breaks out in a blink. This is not your standard Dracula versus Frankenstein rehash, but a c...

Big sound for small price

Sun, 24 Mar 2002 14:03:36 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - It’s easy to overlook the Pioneer DEH-P4300 CD Player in a sea of flashy “Nintendo-like” players. It has a relatively simple face but under the hood it has what it takes.

I looked at other Players. I visited my local super electronics store,...

Linksys Etherfast Cable and DSL Router: Installing the Linksys in a SOHO

Mon, 9 Apr 2001 12:47:09 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - The Linksys is a great little router. It's perfect for a home or a small office. I've installed it in both environments; although I did have some trouble setting it up in an office, but as far as performance, I found it to be a nimble little router...

Man Blunder

Tue, 20 Mar 2001 22:03:05 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - After the release of Hannibal, I decided to read Red Dragon by Tom Harris and then rent "Manhunter" which was based on it. I have to say I was so disappointed with "Manhunter". It's a gawd awful movie. The 1930's "Dracula" with Bela Lugosi is better than...

Worth Watching

Fri, 19 Jan 2001 13:01:39 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - I enjoyed Quills. It's a provocative movie without going over the top- but hold on, before you run out to see it, it's not a movie for everyone. If you're a fan of Disney movies, you're better off renting The Lion King. This is a graphic, adult movie...

A Fresh and Daring movie

Wed, 13 Dec 2000 13:23:30 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - I like the bravado of Billy Elliot. I'm not a big fan of independent films, far and few are the good ones, so I had my fingers crossed when I dropped my $9 at the ticket counter; at any rate, I was pleased. I found it daring and fresh. The director...

Being bored out my mind

Mon, 6 Nov 2000 12:14:26 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - Being John Malkovich is one the most original movies I've seen. It's perhaps a bit too original. I had a difficult time sitting through it. Maybe I'm not as enlightened as I thought I was, maybe I'm so used to seeing movies with plot lines that move...

Shanghai Stench

Sat, 4 Nov 2000 15:22:59 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - This has to be one of the worst movies of 2000, and in my defensive, I didn't rent this stink bomb. My girlfriend rented it and made me watch it. She still remembered Jackie Chan in Rush Hour. We both thought he was funny in that one. I figured, why not...

Long Live Maximus!

Fri, 3 Nov 2000 13:02:06 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - I loved Gladiator. It's one of the few movies that really delivers the goods. I didn't even mind springing for the ridiculous $9 ticket. I've cut down on the movie-going because I'm tired of movies with promise, good trailers, and then flounder at the...

Big, Powerful, but not for the timid

Thu, 2 Nov 2000 14:06:55 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - I've been working on the HP 5si for some years now; I consider it one of the best printers, if it can be tamed. It's powerful engine can pump out 24ppm with a monthly duty cycle of 100,000 sheets- that's a lot of dead trees. It has 2 paper bins, each can...

Movie Good, Vampire Bad

Wed, 1 Nov 2000 13:00:25 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - I really like this movie. It has such rich texture. It's a beautiful movie to see. The backgrounds, music, and costumes are excellent. It's based on Anne Rice's book by the same name. The screenplay adaptation does a good job of bringing the dialog...

Netgear DS108: Nice little hub

Wed, 25 Oct 2000 22:13:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - I bought and installed the Netgear DS108 today. It's a good and sturdy mini-hub. I've purchased other hubs for myself and for customers, but the DS108 has some real nice features- that are tangible.

It's difficult to judge hubs. I feel they...

Franklin Rex 3: Small and convenient

Mon, 23 Oct 2000 12:51:34 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - I've had the Rex-3 for three years and still love it. Actually, I bought one three years ago, and it's LCD broke ten months later. Franklin eventually replaced it with a new one under warranty.

I looked for an organizer for a while. I was...

Good printer but costly

Sun, 22 Oct 2000 16:15:56 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - The Okidata 10ex is a solid little printer. The print quality is good at 600 dpi. The speed is reasonable for the size and type of printer. It can print 10 ppm(pages per minute). It has standard options like expandable memory and larger sheet trays.

Great mouse

Sun, 22 Oct 2000 14:34:43 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - I've had my Intellimouse for a year or so. I'm real happy with it. I was very skeptical about getting a Microsoft mouse. I still had a bad taste from the two-button Microsoft mice. I thought it'd turn into a two-button mouse with a ball. However I was...

Great print quality, so-so performance

Sat, 21 Oct 2000 16:45:37 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author pgtech - The Lexmark 3200 is one of those printers that you love or hate, depending whether you're a pessimist or an optimist.

The price is very affordable; I paid $170 minus a mail-in factory rebate of $30. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to buy a...
