Sun, 18 Nov 2007 03:12:26 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author x97schinkel - I've probably bought around 5-10 Logitech mice over the years. This is by far their best. I've probably had around 3 remote mice, all pretty expensive but this one tops them all and is well worth it. Initially I thought what's the big deal about a...

Not reliable

Sat, 27 May 2006 01:22:26 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author x97schinkel - I had this hard drive for 2 years. One day at work (while it was in a sturdy External IDE case), the case dropped a very short distance to the floor.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author x97schinkel - My last phone was a Samsung 8500. I liked that phone a lot until I misplaced it and was forced to buy a new one. I of course went with the color equivalent and have been more than happy with it ever since.

Microsoft Windows XP Professional (E85-00086) For PC: Microsoft truly deserves a thumbs up for Windows XP Professional

Mon, 23 Dec 2002 04:00:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author x97schinkel - I am a DBA but also support users on Windows XP Professional. Our company decided to skip right past Windows 2000 and go from Windows 98 to Windows XP and that was a smart move. Many will argue that Windows 2000 is just as good or better...I am not here...

Thu, 5 Dec 2002 02:24:51 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author x97schinkel - This iron has a lot of nice dials. I will not waste my time writing a lot about it because I am not satisfied after paying $50.

Satisfied but This Laptop Could use More Power

Sun, 24 Mar 2002 01:55:00 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author x97schinkel - Purchased this laptop for work on a strict budget. I am overall happy with this laptop; my only complaint is the lack of RAM and the Celeron processor. Windows XP needs a lot of RAM, at least 512 for starters so that it isn't a turtle when you run...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author x97schinkel - needed a cheap printer for my laptop, one that wasn't too bulky and yet one that wasn't too small and could do general functions with decent print quality. I was lucky and got this free after purchasing a Toshiba Satellite laptop at CompUSA.

Thu, 2 Nov 2000 18:31:55 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author x97schinkel - Maybe if it is your full time job and you have nothing else to do:

I admit, at first it seemed neat to me too but I tried it for about a month and soon got bored, plus I don't have free time to bother with some nonsense like that.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author x97schinkel - I saw stomp and thought it was very good. I am a drummer and I liked trying to listen to their beats to see how complicated they were and I must say they were pretty good.

The performers were very energetic and I was surprised at how funny...
