rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author vachipep - This review is about Ultra WinCleaner 2002. The only change between the 2000 version and the 2002 version is that the box says this will run on Windows XP. It also runs on every Windows version since Windows 95.

Mon, 29 May 2000 19:07:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author vachipep - Nissan was the first to bring reliable, affordable sportscars to the U.S. But, about two years ago, Nissan pulled the curtain on the 240SX and the 300ZX. Now they have no two door (with the exception of their pick-up) in their lineup.

Theme music for the nighttime drive

Tue, 23 May 2000 23:03:46 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author vachipep - One way to liven up a nighttime drive is to put the digitally remastered Animal Magnetism CD on and ROCK! It's doubtful that the Scorpions were trying to create a Car-Classic when they made this 1980 masterpiece. But this Album always...

Mon, 15 May 2000 15:35:07 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author vachipep - My company installs Microsoft Office Professional on every PC & laptop (Office Pro includes Outlook 97). This makes sense because it is an all in one solution.

However, if you've read any of my other articles, you'll see...
