Thu, 8 Mar 2001 05:36:46 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author surojit - Let me first start off by saying that I really didn't find anything "ugly" about this particular linux distribution. I've been spending a lot of my time lately installing and toying around with various distributions including the latest Mandrake copy...

TDK veloCD ReWriter 12/10/32: VeloCD: The Good, Bad, Ugly

Thu, 26 Oct 2000 17:39:34 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author surojit - Let me start off by saying that there is no ugly side to this device. I have two burners. The TDK velocd and the Plextor 12/10/32 CDWriter are on par despite what some people say. Apparently the Plextor writer is suppose to be the BEST burner though I...

Not For The Business Professional

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author surojit - I bought the Compaq 1247 Presario Laptop Mid-january 2000. This machine was a mistake. When I got it, it came filled with all sorts of preloaded software that loads up along with Windows. I can tell you that this was an extreme pain since all this...

Techno at it's mediocre

Mon, 12 Jun 2000 19:59:29 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author surojit - As a hardhead critic on music, when it comes to electronica/techno I try to stay away from tunes that try to make an effort to be "deep thoughted". Techno was meant to be mindless music and such is the case with Alice Deejay's Who Needs...

Awesome speakers but...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author surojit - I bought these speakers from Egghead.com when they were refurbished. I think I made a big mistake. When I got them and plugged them in they sounded great. That subwoofer ROCKS! I mean, the power in them can really blow you away if you're a serious...

Linksys Etherfast Cable and DSL Router: The Router: Good and Bad

Sun, 14 May 2000 05:24:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author surojit - Linksys makes great products. This product is probably the best one yet. A DHCP client and server, NAT server, 4-port switch that can be used as a DSL/Cable/regular ethernet hub. What more can you ask for?

You can't even dispute the price...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author surojit - I've been using Flashnet for a while now and just now figured out that I've never really had a problem with them.

I've been able to leave my computer online for several hours at a time without the connection being closed -- and this is an idle...

An interesting CD, very wide range

Sun, 14 May 2000 02:01:03 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author surojit - I bought their album after I heard a track that was played in a recent Dawson's Creek episode. Their blend of Mighty Joe Plum/Metallica/My Friend Steve like music makes this album interesting enough to listen to in the store and then buy.

Be OS: Be: The Good and The Bad

Sun, 14 May 2000 01:48:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author surojit - BeOS is awesome... really, it is. Originally meant for high-end graphic/multimedia designers and itself a designer operating system, BeOS is a robust, user-friendly OS that would be, I think, the most popular OS if it weren't for Microsoft creating...

minolta is the king

Sat, 13 May 2000 23:18:01 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author surojit - Minolta knows how to make cameras. I bought this camera when I was living in Saudi Arabia to take pictures when I was a photoeditor.

If you're looking for a hybrid camera that allows control, yet technilogical perfection the Maxxum series...

Firstrade is second rate

Sat, 13 May 2000 23:07:13 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author surojit - I opened a Firstrade account November 1999. It's not the best online brokerage and here are some reasons why:

I never use it to check realtime quotes. A decent brokerage will be compelling and organized enough so that you feel comfortable...

slick phone, slick features

Sat, 13 May 2000 22:53:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author surojit - I use the cellphone a lot. After dealing with low-quality Samsung phones whose batteries spoil real fast, I picked up one of these babies and haven't been disappointed yet.

I've been able to leave the phone on for three to five days straight...

If you want to work your mind, go somewhere else.

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author surojit - I've been at UT Austin for about a year now and it feels great. The atmosphere here is great and there is always a lot of things to do here. The main street, Guadalupe, is always a blast to be on and things are always looking up.

However,...

Excellent band to rise from the Carolinas!

Fri, 12 May 2000 11:25:28 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author surojit - If you like Athenaeum, you'll love Collapsis. After all, they're from the same part of the country and therefore possess the same style and quality of music.

Though of as a mix between alternative and bluegrass, Collapsis's style resembles...
