Review of Acer Aspire 5738ZG

It's a superb tape deck! But nothing else!

Advantages: high sound quality, diverse functions, record to tape mode, record from tape mode
Disadvantages: usless instruction manual, useless recording programme, not all cables supplied

...The sound quality is good, so is the recording quality. The look and design are brilliant and so is the durability! It's an extremly good cassette deck with a level meter indication feature as well as noise reduction and dubbing which are just the start! In my opinion however, this should just be sold as a normal tape deck as the only real feature that lets it down is the transfering "2PC" mode which is actually the main idea behind this deck! Disadvantages As described previously, this tape deck has only one real disdvantage and that is the transfering of a tape to computer media. The software itself seems reasonable enough at first glance since the CD-ROM media actually includes two programmes: a music editing programme called audacity and also the main feature which is the media converting programme. This programme is...

Review of ION TAPE 2 PC USB

8mm Tapes are so last year!

Advantages: Good quality tapes that will work and last
Disadvantages: Very dated with better SD Card or Hard Drive options

...I initially wondered why people would be looking to buy these tapes, and if they do, whether it is time to update the camcorder to an affordable SD Card or hard drive version. However, if 8 mm tapes still rock your boat, then the Sony tapes work a treat. There are two kinds of Sony 8mm tapes, the 60 minute (Pack of 3 = £11.99) and 90 minute (Pack of 3 = £21.99) and weigh about 200g per tape. These are lightweight and portable and come in sealed plastic casing with good design covering. You can trust the Sony brand as a leading manufacturer in the video and audio market. The quality of the product is excellent and durable. It will fit snugly into the camcorder without sticking and you will be ready to go. The output very much depends on the quality of your camcorder. What goes in comes out. It will also make a difference if you...

Acer

Advantages: Good all round multimedia laptop
Disadvantages: Bulky, low battery life.

...Acer is a major world leader in IT solutions and are now the third largest manufacturer of laptops worldwide. It's a great little device with plenty of features that I would highly recommend. This really is a wonderful piece of kit that should go well with many accessories because it really looks good. However, always think carefully as to whether you actually really need something before you buy it. We buy so many things nowadays that we don't really need.

Tape (2001)

Advantages: Ethan Hawke - Sweet Use Of Dialog - Richard Linklater - UMA
Disadvantages: Not much - That Vinces' bag of beer is not presently in my room...

...Ever since I watched "Waking Life", I became a huge fan of Richard Linklater. The magical thing about Waking Life was the fantasy trip (seeing as how its real life footage, that was converted into animation) that you experienced, while listening to dialog about very important and profound subjects. Then when I viewed "Before Sunrise" I not only was cemented as a fan, but gained great respect for the awesome way that he directed dialog. In "Tape", he has shown the unlimited possibilities, even if you are limited in materials. For "Tape" is a low budget movie that takes place completely in a motel room. But holds the power of a big budget film, both cinematically and creatively. Tape is... This film is based on a 1-act play, with only 3 characters. Tape begun as an off-off-Broadway play. All taking place in Access Theater's 5th...

Review of Tape (DVD)

Got Any More Old Tapes Laying Around?

Advantages: Lots of big tunes
Disadvantages: Takes a while for the bangers to come in

...Soon after his ?Stillmatic? album came out, in 2002 the New York MC Nas decided to bring out more material as ?The Lost Tapes?, in which he was seen to (rather than come out with a brand new album) compile a collection of all the best tunes which hadn?t made their way onto ?...I Am?, ?Nastradamus? and the 2001 album which reminded people why he created such a buzz with his 1994 debut release. 1. ?Doo Rags? He gets the album going with a fresh tune to guide listeners in. It is a calm one and features some gentle production to ease people on here as he gives you a chance to just enjoy life with a feel-good recording here. It is a tune which reflects the fact that here he was just messing around this material and came up with a light tune to escape what you typically get in a rhyme set from the Queensbridge native. **Four Stars** 2...

Review of Lost Tapes Vol.1, The [PA] - Nas

Acer have a winning Tablet PC

Advantages: A delight to use - compact and smooth with excellent functionality
Disadvantages: Small screen and smallish keyboard, which some may find not to their taste.

...As an ICT coordinator, I've had the pleasure of using one these beauties for about 4 weeks. This is the first tablet I have used and I admit to be being impressed by both the concept and by Acer's ingenuity in combining notebook and tablet functionality. The processor is a Pentium III ULV 800. With 256MB of RAM and 30GB of hard disk space, the Windows XP tablet edition operating system works quickly and purposefully. The CD rom and floppy disk connect via the USB ports, of which there are two. There is also a firewire port! With both wired and wireless connectivity, I have used the machine with ease on our LAN. The only quirk here, is that you have to switch between the two manually with the use of a switch on the keyboard. The first impression of the machine is that it looks like a very small laptop. However, pop the hinges...

Review of Acer Floppy disk drive

Tape - buy the DVD.

Advantages: cool, stylish, simple, convincing
Disadvantages: Set entirely in a motel room

...Adapted from a one act, three character play by Stephen Belber, ?Tape? ought to be considered a landmark in low budget film making. Set entirely in a seedy albeit comfortable motel room in Lansing, Michigan, the feature opens with quirky shots of Vince (Ethan Hawke) drinking beer, doing press ups, and jumping energetically around his two bedded room, dressed in boxers and a vest. When old high school friend Jon turns up - a handsome, ambitious, up-and-coming film director - their past is explored through slick, natural dialogue and a convincing rapport. But as the nature of their relationship is unfolded, so does Vince?s ulterior motive, as he becomes curious to know more about a dubious incident that occurred ten years ago, involving ex girlfriend Amy. So begins the film. You?d have thought a film so limited in setting and cast would...

Review of Tape (DVD)

Acer plays the Ace card again!

Advantages: Small, lightweight, great performer. Can handle some 3D games.
Disadvantages: None for the Netbook, but Linux version is rubbish.

..., listen to music and write documents or chat then this will be adequate for you. Linux is easy to use and the version on this Netbook is icon driven making it easy to get to what you want. Linux comes pre-installed and there is a copy supplied on disc. Installing Windows XP Another reviewer said it was "a challenge" to install XP but didn't furnish us with info on how he done it. If you're thinking of installing Vista or even Windows 7 then don't bother. First of all they are more demanding and the memory in the Netbook isn't sufficient enough. The Acer doesn't have an internal CD drive so you will need to purchase an external one. You can get them for as little as £30 and they are sold in many places. I bought one in Tesco's because they had the best price. To install XP, power up the drive, plug the USB cable into the computer...

Review of Acer Aspire ONE A150

Sex, drive and a video tape

Advantages: Quite funny, some wry looks at teen flicks,
Disadvantages: not as funny as the film that inspired it

...over, so urged on by his friend EL, he has a date with Beth. Beth seduces Josh and records their subsequent love-making, but the tape accidently gets posted to Tiffany, just when Josh finds out that the real reason she hasn't been returning his calls because her grandfather had died. This prompts the Road Trip of the title as Josh, EL and Ruben enlist the services of Kyle (a weedy nerd type of guy) who happens to own a car. They then set-out to drive across the country and intercept the tape before Tiffany gets it. It's a very simple script but is very well told. Barry's rendition of the happenings come in for some criticism from the females in his tour group, and the movie does have some fairly gratuitous scenes of female nudity, because of the way Barry said things happen. The soundtrack is also quite good. The DVD is...
