Advantages:
Disadvantages:

...Maurice was a dead cert to run in the 200m at Sydney leading up tp the US trials before disaster struck. In the final of the US trials both Michael Johnson and Maurice Greene had pulled up midway due to injury. Thus both of the favourites for the 200m failed to qualify for the 200m's. Maurice will be very disappointed as he had a very good chance of taking the gold medal. He doesn't quite dominate the 200 metres as he does the 100 metres but his speed and power carries him through the event. Although he currently holds the World Record at the 100 metres his times at the 200 metres are nowhere near to troubling Michael Johnson's World Record at the 200 metres.... Read review

Advantages: Great colors, flat screen, low dot-pitch, low glare
Disadvantages: large size

...I bought the E200, which is actually an updated version of the 200ES. The menu controls on the front are different than the ES. I had been using four different computers at the library, and one computer had a 200ES monitor, which blew away all the others for clarity and sharpness of text. Avoiding glare and eyestrain was an important factor for me in choosing a monitor, so I knew that the E200 was the one I would eventually purchase when I bought my home computer. Add a glare/radiation screen and it's unbeatable! I haven't noticed those two lines across the screen that people say is on the 200ES, although sometimes when I scroll text the print seems to "roll" over an imaginary line in the middle of the screen, sort of like driving over a speed bump, but this is infrequent and inconsequential. The price of $379 is high, but I guess you... Read review

Advantages: ok if you have a higer spec machine.
Disadvantages: not so good if you dont have a fast pc (it wont work on it )

...Kodak ez200 Nice little camera if you have the latest p.c. I only run a Pentium 200, as it is all I need I have had the machine for 4 years now without any problems, Until I bought the Kodak ez200. The camera MUST be connected to a p.c. with at least a 266 with MMX. otherwise; it will not function properly. Do not get me wrong the people at Kodak and staples where I purchased the camera were brilliant, but the camera does not have a lot of technology inside it. So it relays on the power of your processor to help it along. As the person at Kodak pointed out the ez 200 tries to work like a web cam all the time, even when you are downloading snap shots. Looks like ill have to spend a bit more on a better camera, most digital cameras on the market only require a Pentium 90 so I wont have to many problems finding one.... Read review

Advantages: CD printing, Photo Printing
Disadvantages: Slow text printing

...I bought an Epson R200 Printer in February of this year for about £80, I was previously looking at the R300 as it had good reviews in a number of magazines but decided to get the R200 as the only difference was a inbuilt card reader which I already had built into my computer. The R200 is one of the cheapest Printers I have seen to boast CD-printing and is brilliant for making cool looking home made CD's . The supplied CD design and print software is easy to use and you can design a professional looking CD / DVD in a matter of minutes, although printing is slow and CD's expensive. The R200 is best at printing High quality black and White or colour photographs and text but is quite slow and would not be the best printer to purchase if you want to print fast black and white text as 25 pages takes about 12 minutes. When it comes to photo... Read review

Advantages: Nice new cars
Disadvantages: Expensive, Unreliable, Terrible Staff

...DO NOT LEARN TO DRIVE WITH BSM! Save your money and go with a private school. I am in current negotiations with BSM over a full refund. Why? Well I have had a very dodgy ADI, fiddling the lesson times. And the office staff are terrible. Here is a document I wrote and took it to BSM Office in Liverpool. I went through this with them. Still waiting. Ive lost 400 pounds. All this company care about is money. Once they have your money they dont care. So far I have had 6 hours of lessons with BSM, with instructor John Seels. I am very disapointed with the service I have received. I find it totaly unacceptable. I was led to believe that BSM was supposed to be the the best national driving school in the UK. I shall now itemize the dates and times I have and have not had lessons: Tuesday 1st March - First Lesson, should have been 2:00... Read review

Advantages: Great Sound and Performance, High Screen Resolution
Disadvantages: None

...The Toshiba Satellite P200 -17C is the perfect laptop if you're looking for some gaming fun. Its 2D and 3D performance is impressive, while six USB ports are scattered around the machine. The speakers are excellent and Interacting with the P200 is a mixed bag because whilst the trackpad is great, the keyboard has a couple of flaws. The space bar feels as though it's about to pop off and the diminutive size of the 'Enter' button.Opting for screen size over mobility, the Toshiba Satellite P200-13Z is aimed at home multimedia use. With its dual-core processor, 17-inch screen and large keyboard, it suits desktop use where comfort is more important than portability. A thoroughly capable desktop replacement with plenty of storage and power, but it's pricey.... Read review

Advantages: Abilty to run computers of a single monitor
Disadvantages: very deep and heavy so make sure you work desk is sturdy

...After having this monitor for about 6 months now i cant say a bad word against it. With the ability to run two separate computer systems off a single monitor is a great advantage when you workspace is limited. This is just a simple matter of plunging in the right connector on the back ( A or B) and with a simple press of a small button you are able to change between displays. The sweet spot for this monitor is 1,600 x 1,200 at 85Hz and is the resolution that i personal recommend you use. There are 5 button located on the front of the monitor one for power, one for display signal and 4 for the on screen display (OSD), this make it very simple for anyone to use. The OSD is very simple to use and offers a lot of options so you can tailor the display to just how you like it... Read review
