Been pretty pleased with HSBC

Fri, 14 Apr 2006 16:20:43 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author russrimm - I moved all my 'emergency fund' money to HSBC because they're offering 4.80% interest until 4/30/2006. That's the highest interest rate I know of. After setting up the account online, which took about 30 minutes, I got my initial 2 test deposits a...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author russrimm - After years of my doors getting dinged and ending up upside down when trading vehicles in, I finally woke up and smelled the coffee and realize that cars are a horrible investment. That's about the time I was passing the Hyundai dealership on the way...

Can't be without my WSM

Sun, 8 Dec 2002 04:05:05 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author russrimm - I purchased my WSM about 8 months ago, and I literally have only missed only about 5 weekends worth of smoking since I bought it. I have smoked so much meat, my WSM hardly has a chance to cool off before I'm lighting it up again.

The WSM is...

Abit KA7: I love my KA7

Wed, 29 Nov 2000 01:27:52 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author russrimm - I just installed my KA7 a few weeks ago. What a wonderful motherboard. I upgraded from a FIC VA503+ which was running a AMD K6/2-450. I put an Athlon 750 on my KA7 and 128mb PC133 SDRAM. The motherboard is completely software settable, although it...

Not a bad deal at all

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author russrimm - Got my brand new MultiPass C560 in the mail today. Bought it off Ebay for $135. MSRP is about $250 so I'm pleased!

It was very easy to set up. I pulled it out of the box, plugged it in, pulled off all the shipping tape, and installed the color...

Previews were the best part!

Sun, 20 Aug 2000 17:03:56 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author russrimm - The previews for this movie were very funny to me. However, they were the only funny parts to this movie.

It seemed like a good idea at the time: take the funniest bits from Eddie Murphy's hit 1996 comedy "The Nutty...

Chase yourself to another bank!

Mon, 17 Jan 2000 19:39:37 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author russrimm - Chase Bank should not even call themselves a bank. They should call themselves Chase Thieves. My experience with Chase Bank was a horrible one. They had high fees for every little service they have. I first had a whopping $60 added to my checking...

I finally found a great bank!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author russrimm - After many months of 'bank hopping' to find a good bank, I finally came across Wells Fargo. Previous banks I had dealt with, including Bank of America, Chase (blech!) and others, all had ghastly charges for every little thing.

Wells Fargo,...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author russrimm - Microsoft and Ensemble studios have created an awesome sequel to Age of Empires, called Age of Empires II, The Age of Kings. Age of Empires II maintains the "Civilization" feel that Age of Empires held. However, instead of tanks and...

A whole lotta truck!

Fri, 26 Nov 1999 13:09:37 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author russrimm - I originally purchased my new '99 F-250 because I had a travel trailer I wanted to pull around and go camp in. Well, I ended up moving and selling the travel trailer, so now I have nothing to pull. I ended up getting the V-8 5.4L 4x4 model. The 5.4L...

Nothing but Problems!!

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author russrimm - I purchased a 4x4 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee back in 1997. It seemed to drive fairly well at the beginning. A few months later, however, it seemed to sway every time I turned a corner. I took it in, and sure enough, my sway bar was broken. $200 and 3...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author russrimm - I received my Armada 3500 last week. So far, I'm very impressed. Weighing in at only 4.4lbs, the Armada is the lightest laptop I have owned. It not only reduced the weight of my laptop bag by about 10lbs (my previous notebook was a Fujitsu Lifebook...
