Buy it, then read it....

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author zckls04 - I first heard of Tibor Fischer on the radio, during a review of another of his books, the bowl-narrated "Collector Collector". I simply could not resist a book like that so I went and bought "The Thought Gang" and "Don't Read This Book If You're Stupid"...

A very "sensible" choice

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author zckls04 - After deciding to upgrade everything in my computer I went straight to a computer fair and spent as much as I could afford on a motherboard and processor. I came back with the Gigabyte GA7VTX with a 1.1 GHz Athlon Chip, and paid £160 for the pair.

Not a worthy investment.

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author zckls04 - This game for me clearly highlights the need to avoid buying a game because of its predecessors. First a little about Test Drive 5, to put this review in context.

Test Drive 5 is one of my all-time favourite racing games. In fact, it's less of...

A slightly biased opinion.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author zckls04 - Given that I run a website for Motorhead I have avoided writing Motorhead reviews for some time. However I am amazed that no review of this album has been written.

Actually I'm not THAT amazed. This album's flaw is that it was produced during...

You either love it or you hate it....

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author zckls04 - I've spoken to so many people about this film (one of my favourites) and people seem to either love it or hate it. To me it is full of classic lines and insane situations, but to others it has been described less favourably.

NTI CD-Maker: Good but still not good enough...

Sun, 3 Jun 2001 20:57:23 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author zckls04 - NTI performs consistently better than Nero on my Memorex 1622. I don't know why Nero hates my drive so much, but there you have it.

I used NTI 95 for a long time as it came bundled with my drive. Thankfully the hideous interface has been...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author zckls04 - The $6,000,000 question- why Estonia? Being half-estonian I'm probably not the best person to ask, but tough luck, you're having my opinion anyway.

I have been 4 times to Estonia- each time for a different type of holiday and I have enjoyed...

Lidan Download Accelerator: Need for speed

Mon, 4 Sep 2000 21:38:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author zckls04 - I have now been using this product for 2 years (since it first came out) and I think it is the best piece of software I have ever used. The claims of 300% faster downloads are not met in my experience, but I use only a 56k modem and I am told the...

Deep Purple: I just can't get enough

Thu, 31 Aug 2000 17:34:31 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author zckls04 - The first time I heard a Purple album was on TOTP2 (a UK music TV show), when they played "Black Night". I have adored them ever since. Often pigeonholed as a "heavy metal" band, their roots lie in many different forms of music,...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author zckls04 - I chose this card mainly because of the price (and the promise of high quality from my vendor). The problem is that I won't ever find out whether this card was any good or not.

When I installed the card it immediately locked up upon booting Win98. I...
