SMC Barricade Broadband Router: Take the SMC Router Route--You Won't Be Disappointed

Sun, 21 Oct 2001 16:04:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - Moving into a house with three other guys, each of us knew it was a perfect time to spring for the cable broadband connection. However, in order to share this high-speed connection, we needed a reliable router that would take our abuse, working long and...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - If you?re reading this, you obviously know how amazing the Internet is. Where else can you find the average rainfall in the Amazon basin in less than 30 seconds? Students around the world are researching and plagiarizing term papers with greater...

If the Brain is 70% Water, Does Using This Filter Give Me A Clean Mind??

Mon, 20 Aug 2001 18:35:09 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - Growing up in a semi-rural area outside of Portland, for years we pulled our water from an aquifer at a depth of 650 feet (think Space Needle then add another 50.) As such, our water was just right. For those who haven’t experienced good well water, I...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - My Contacts and I

I started wearing contacts a little over a year ago after submitting to glasses for about a year and a half. I’m nearsighted (runs in the family) and probably should have started using vision correction even earlier, but...

The Standard to Which Other Daily Comics Should Aspire...

Fri, 10 Aug 2001 15:39:45 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - Beautiful in its simplicity and striking in its innocence, even a fleeting glance at Patrick McDonnell’s “Mutts” will reveal that this strip far exceeds the typical garbage currently dotting our modern funny pages.

In a day and age where the...

The Return of "The Grassy Knoll"...Or "JFK Rolls Over in his Grave?"

Thu, 9 Aug 2001 16:39:25 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - Describing the unique sound of The Grassy Knoll is like trying to tell a friend about an excellently prepared foreign entrée you just finished. You’re not sure of the ingredients or the steps it took to create - all you know is that it was really good,...

"The Grassy Knoll?!" EVERYBODY GET DOWN! CODE RE-...What? It's the name of the band?

Great School, But For How Much Longer? (Or: "How I Spent My Summer Vacation")

Tue, 7 Aug 2001 20:24:36 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - I’m returning this fall to begin my third year of study at Gonzaga University, a school that I honestly believe to be one of the premier liberal arts institutions on the West Coast.

First, a little background. Gonzaga, if nothing else, is two...

The Seventies Live Again Thanks to Soulfood76!

Fri, 3 Aug 2001 16:03:46 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - The entire retro 70 ‘s culture reborn in recent years through clothing style, TV, and music has not gone entirely unnoticed in the Christian pop community. This was clearly proven by the Newsboys “Love, Liberty, Disco” CD/tour . But whereas the...

Cake Cooks up a Sweet Filling While Staying True to Their Light, Fluffy Sound

Wed, 25 Jul 2001 20:17:28 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - Excellent. Cake returns to their distinct style pioneered in their first CD. This is one band who remains all the better for returning to their musical roots.

One of Cake’s strengths has always been Gabriel Nelson’s catchy bass stylings...

Creative's Dxr3 Technology Makes for a Better DVD Player

Tue, 24 Jul 2001 18:41:40 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - I’ll admit it; I’m a slave to Creative Labs. They have a tradition of providing cutting edge, quality products at prices that don’t break the bank. So, in buying this DVD-ROM I had high expectations-luckily they were all surpassed. Once again, Creative...

Good Sound, But Nothing Really Exceptional...

Fri, 20 Jul 2001 19:39:34 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - I bought this CD expecting either some fast-paced rap/rock in the same vein as Rage Against the Machine or some good hard rock a la Chevelle. Sadly, I was disappointed on both fronts. Maybe I’m just growing jaded, but as I listened to the tracks on...

Best Multiplayer Action Available on Your GBA!

Fri, 20 Jul 2001 15:19:12 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - When I purchased my Gameboy Advance, this was one of the games I looked forward to with eager anticipation. The very thought of linking up with three other friends for some classic explosive Bomberman action was more than enough incentive for me to lay...

Different Look - Great Closure

Wed, 18 Jul 2001 20:12:46 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - What Happened to Tenchi Muyo?

I sat down to watch “Tenchi Forever,” and scarcely five minutes into the film I was outraged. Even at a glance, it’s immediately obvious - this film contains character artwork completely different from that in the...

High Quality - - High Price

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - I’ve always been of the opinion that Sony has practically perfected the art of picture tube production. Continually a pioneer in this field, their patented Triniton tubes, combined with their aperture grille technology, serve to produce the most...

The Strongest Tenchi Movie

Thu, 12 Jul 2001 00:33:42 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - This is without a doubt the best Tenchi film of the three. I was a little surprised that “cronoclone” and “Godai-kun” don’t share my sentiments, but I guess everyone’s entitled to their own views. In my opinion, this film is much closer to the original...

This is "Tenchi Muyo!" at its Finest

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - If you're a fan of anime and haven't yet picked up this series, you owe it to yourself to check it out. I was turned onto this particular collection after watching it on the Cartoon Network. After reviewing both, I can safely this cartoon was butchered...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - A Real Steal

I bought this game on sale and actually only paid $15, for a new release, this was “unreal”! For the full weekend of enjoyment it provided, it was a great piece of budgetware! This low, low price only helped boost my overall...

Deus Ex For Windows: Some problems, but still fun as heck!

Tue, 17 Apr 2001 00:55:49 GMT
rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - I just have to get this out of the way...unless you have a decent PC running a video card made within the past 18 months, you might be a little disappointed by this game's graphics. You'll have a much better go at it if you're running a 3Dfx card (at...

Wes Anderson - The Man, The Myth, The Legend

Mon, 16 Apr 2001 20:31:18 GMT
rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author trustedun - If you're looking for an over the top action or comedy flick, you might want to skip Rushmore. On the other hand, if you appreciate excellent character development and a coherent, well conceived plot, I think director Wes Anderson will be your new best...
