3Com OfficeConnect Dual Speed Switch 5

Advantages: Simple, dual speed, small size
Disadvantages: Only 5 ports (?)

...Not much to say about this really. I bought this for a pound (!) on Ebay to connect to my router giving me 4 more ethernet ports to connect stuff to my network. That's all it does, gives you more connection; there's no firewall, DCHP, nothing, but then that's all in my router. Its 5 autosensing ports (Ethernet 10Base-T/100Base-TX - RJ-45)automatically detect the speed of the attached device to maximize network performance - with a data transfer rate of up to 100 Mbps. It really was a "plug-and-play" installation with no configuration needed, it connected straight into my network - I didn't even ned to read the manual ! The auto-sensing feature means that you can plug the "in" cable into any socket - another 3Com switch I have has a specific "in" port. It's nice and small (Weight 0.6 kg, Height 4.2 cm, depth 13.5 cm, Width 22...

Switch

Advantages: Fun game for many
Disadvantages: Only when you lose

...The basic method of playing Switch is the same the world over, although the choice of penalty cards does vary and in doing so causes untold confusion. I understand that this game has other names but I don't know what they are. Switch is a unique game, in that it doesn't follow the whist or rummy format, nor is it a variation of poker or brag. Any number can play but if there will be more than about 8 players, an extra pack of cards must be used. Whether the extra pack of cards has the same design on the back as the first pack, is irrelevant. The speed of the game is such, that there shouldn't be time to work out the probability of a player holding a particular card, based on the difference in the back of the card. I have played Switch as man and boy for nigh on half a century and it makes a nice change from...

Magimix 4200 - food processor

Advantages: Use it for everything in the kitchen
Disadvantages: You need extra space to store blade box

...If you are not versed in the world of food processor's - you are forgiven as not many are. We recently married and decided to replace our old processor with something more up to date and modern looking that would fit into our kitchen. What do you get for your money? The Magimix 4200 comes in a large box with a handle, so easy to carry around if you are shopping (although a bit heavy so buy it at the end of your trip). The product comprises of 2 parts: - the main food processor - a separate plastic storage box for all the components. The magimix has 3 bowls - mini, midi and a main bowl. The mini bowl is a small bowl which can be used for things such as chop garlic, to make a salsa verde or pesto. Equally, it is useful when you are only chopping a small amoutn of food, making less to wash up. The midi bowl is...

Epson Stylus DX4200

Advantages: Great Print Quality
Disadvantages: None i can think of.

...Epson Stylus DX4200 After having my Epson Stylus DX4000 for a few months I needed a change and decided to upgrade to the next model in the series. As with the other printer it is an all-round great product and has many different features that you are able to use. I found that the printer has many qualities that are same as the DX4000 which include ease of use because it is very easy to use and the printing quality, although it is slightly better than the previous model. The Epson DX4200 offers a complete printing and copying solution for all of the family. It's ideal for nearly everything. It's compatible with all applications and can be used for school projects, web designing, and right down to photo printing. It can be used connected to your computer or you could use it as a standalone printer that allows you to copy documents...

3Coms

Advantages: Reliable
Disadvantages: Nothing special

...3Com Card This card is a nice card but when it come to networking cads there is only two things that make a difference one being the speed, you only tend to find three types of network card all at various speeds ranging form 10 mbps then you get a 10/100 mbps and just recently you can now get hold of a 10/100/1000mbps cars that can use any of these three standards. The card in question will only run at either ten mega bits per second or one hundred mbps depending on you other hard ware so this is something to keep in mind when buying this card. If you are using a Rj45 Crossover network cable linking two machines directly and both cards will work a 10/100 then you will receive a speed of 100mbps but if the other card in the other machine is only running a 10mbps you will only get speed of 10mbps the speed of the slowest card...

Advantages: best MP3 site that I've visited and easy to use
Disadvantages: Graphics on the site could be improved

...gear and holds auctions. However, I personally would not use the shopping service due to the danger of credit card fraud, which I think is still a threat as, I believe, the security systems used are not entirely full proof. The site has a search option which makes it very easy to find what you are looking for. It is reguarly updated and so has all the latest releases as well as which it has a news service informing you on the latest happenings in the world of music. MP3.com also has a developers network and an artists community which allows people in the industry to make contacts and promote products. The Business to Business service offers people business solutions and the site supports a fund raising program which helps schools, churches and non- profit organisations. So, if you want free music then visit this site NOW!!!!!...

3Com - Mind Blowing Wireless Range!

Advantages: Awesome Value for Money, Great Setup Utility
Disadvantages: Not the best looking object in the world!

...When you purchase an all-in-one solution for broadband in your home these days, you want something that will sit in the background, quietly providing you with fast broadband - whether wired to your desktops, wireless to your laptops or networked to a whole range of bandwidth hungry appliances. You want it to work and you want it to be reliable and of course it must be simple to set-up. The 3Com OfficeConnect Wireless Router ticks all these requirements. I originally purchased one for a client, and I was surprised at how easy the installation was, especially since they used dreaded AOL! Many manuals for routers are usually of two distinct formats: horrendously complicated jargon-spewing bohemoths aimed at network professionals with accreditation from Cisco, or are partonising pamphlets covering the "perfect" install, which we all know...
