Something Returns anyway.

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author skywalk - If you're looking for a brainlessly entertaining movie, look no further. That's about all I can say for the film. It's brainlessly entertaining. The story is flimsy at best. The characters are about the same as they were in the first film. This film...

Journey: Love to hate or hate to admit loving them?

Thu, 23 Nov 2000 14:42:20 GMT
rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author skywalk - Journey. This is one band that has had so much transition it's not even funny. They are one of the most controversial bands in that people hate to admit loving them and others just love to hate them. I'll freely admit to being a big Journey fan, but I...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author skywalk - What can one say about a remote control? It's got your standard style buttons to control the DVD. This control needs just a little bit of work, though. Anyway, here's a little about how it works first.

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author skywalk - I picked up my Playstation 2 several days after initial release mostly because I preordered it in Texas and recently moved out of state so I had to wait for it to be delivered. So, can the Playstation 2 go the distance? Hopefully, this review will...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author skywalk - Please note that I didn't purchase this product. I was given one of these for use with my company. Either way, I get to use it and therefore feel it needs to be reviewed here in all its glory.

Sat, 6 May 2000 04:28:16 GMT
rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author skywalk - I recently decided I needed a new CD player. The old Panasonic I had was getting annoying. At the time when I purchased the Panasonic, it wasn't quite what I was wanting. Unfortunately, there's no place to test these out in the stores. The stores...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author skywalk - I have always enjoyed the Star Wars series of films. Yes, even the latest one. Although, not quite as much as the first three. And so, I decided to plunge into the FAO Schwarz Queen Amidala porcelain collector's doll and trunk set. The doll looked great...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author skywalk - History

Cable TV. Almost everyone has seen it some place or another. We walk into a restaurant or club, and there it is: ESPN or CNN. I've had cable TV since 1982. In that time, I have found both the benefits and limitations of these...

Archived Computers & Internet Reviews: Free ISPs: Are they really free?

Sun, 2 Apr 2000 08:47:06 GMT
rating: 0/5 by: Epinions Author skywalk - Free Internet Access. Seems like a dream doesn't it? Well, unfortunately, it tends to be a nightmare. Nothing is really ever free. There is always a cost associated with something that calls itself free.

As far as free Internet...

Thu, 30 Mar 2000 00:08:30 GMT
rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author skywalk - I haven't owned that many digital cameras. In fact, I've owned one. :) However, I have used others. While this camera is not perfect, it is really easy to use and takes good quality photos.

Wed, 22 Mar 2000 16:11:58 GMT
rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author skywalk - Internet Service Providers are mostly the bane of the Internet. We have to use them in order to get access, yet most of them don't provide the quality service we would expect. Why is that? Well, having worked at a large ISP for 3 years as a UNIX...

Tue, 21 Mar 2000 23:28:03 GMT
rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author skywalk - Ty Warner certainly has done a number on a lot of people. His Beanie Babies line has drawn a lot of attention and certainly made him a lot of money. However, is the fervor really justified? Will these cute and cuddly bean bags ultimately retain their...

Sat, 18 Mar 2000 12:49:17 GMT
rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author skywalk - I have owned my Dreamcast since its release. I have to say that it is chock full of potential. Especially since it has some sister technology which gives it a huge boost. However, be that as it may, the Dreamcast may end up being simply an arcade echo...
