EIZO FlexScan S1911SH . Impressive but expensive

Advantages: Fast response time, Great image quality, Perfect adjustments
Disadvantages: High price, medium viewing angles

...►► ► Introduction to EIZO (I love the name)◄◄◄ EIZO is a Japanese company with the main business activities in development, design, manufacturing and sale of display monitors and peripherals, amusement products, and imaging system software. Working with LCD monitors I've noticed that this company produces monitors of great quality sometimes even at the same quality and performance level as Samsung, LG or others LCD producers. Regarding this monitor the EIZO FlexScan S1911SH I was attracted especially by the 2 ms midtone (gray-to-gray) response time or 6 ms normal response time specified by the producer and because I'm a great gamer and I also watch so often movies I decided to give a try to this monitor and I was not disappointed. ►► ► The speed and the image quality...

Review of EIZO FlexScan S1911SA

Crisp view at any angle! Kind to your eyes too!

Advantages: Rotating screen. Fully customisable, professional colour adjustment.
Disadvantages: Menu is not user friendly!

...I use this monitor at work and I like it very much. This black, slim, 21? flat LCD monitor by a Japanese company called Eizo, has a lot of features to offer: 1) Compact and sturdy design. It doesn?t feel wobbly like some of the cheaper models on the market. Before this Eizo monitor, I was using an IBM, standard (not LCD) screen before, and this always gave me huge strains on my eyes. A few years ago when we had these 17? IBM monitors (sorry, I don?t remember the model number), my colleague and I couldn?t believe that within 5 minutes, we were both complaining about how sore our eyes had become. We had to order an anti-glare screens on the same day. With Eizo FlexScan L985EX, you can easily adjust the brighness of the screen, and so much more. So when my company decided to to upgrade all the monitors in the company to LCD...

Review of Eizo FlexScan L 985EX

I love my big telly

Advantages: clear picture, comprehensive menus,
Disadvantages: quite expensive

...My big telly is an Eizo FlexScan F980. I'd just like to quickly point out that this is the screen I use at work - I probably couldn't afford to buy one for home use! The monitor is big, at 20 inch diagonal - and has a massive depth to match - so it may not be convenient for a small space. The monitor offers the usual ergonomic feature of an adjustable base - which allows you to tilt the screen up and down, left and right, to attain the optimum viewing position. The FlexScan has been awarded a number of awards and is Energy Star compliant - what this basically means is that if the screen image is static for any length of time, it switches itself off to conserve power - you will hardly every notice this feature though, as it takes half an hour. Technical burst: The dot pitch of 0.23 mm (horizontal pitch is 0.20 mm) makes...

Review of Eizo FlexScan F 980

Great buy

Advantages: Crisp images, no ghosting
Disadvantages: Can be hard to clean

...crisp images, no visible ghosting and great colors are the first things that spring to mind about this monitor. i have been using this 17" tft monitor for over a year now, and i am quite pleased with its performance. i have watched dvds, and played fast paced games on it and not noticed any ghosting. the response time of 25ms is more than adequate for this. there is an onscreen osd which lets you control brightness, contrast etc, but you shouldn't need to use it as the default settings are fine. the viewing angles are great - 170 degrees i believe as quoted by eizo. included in the box is just the monitor, a power cable and an analogue cable. you will need to buy a separate dvi cable if you want digital input instead of analogue, but i find that even with analogue input, the monitor images are very fine. like most other...

Dell Studio 17 Laptop.

Advantages: Great machine for small price.
Disadvantages: None

...This is the most affordable Laptop computer ever.. Dell Studio 17 the price is right about $380.00 Where in these days you can get a Note Book Computer with this kind of money? The Studio 17 is as attractive or desirable as an XPS laptop, but it is more appealing than an Inspiron. With that in mind, it achieves its objective: to be cheaper than an XPS without sacrificing too much in the way of looks. Yes indeed there are better replacement machines available, but the Studio 17 hold its own with most. With than in mind we are talking about /or $370.00- $380.00 price range. This machine is powerful, effective, good looking, light weight and easy to handle. The scree is wide and rezolution is fantastic. These days it's just doesn't pay to spend too much money on computers because tomorrow they will become absolite. So you spend...

17 Again: a star is born.

Advantages: funny, light hearted, hot
Disadvantages: bit teenagey, hollywood, screaming girls

...I believe in Zac Efron. I believe that behind the singing, the dancing, the basketball, the Disney brainwashing, the Hollywood smile, the flowing soft hair, the chiselled good looks, the piercing blue eyes you can swim in, the toned, muscular bo... Hmm... Seems I got a tad carried away there. Where was I? Ah yes, I believe that behind all that superficial (yet godlike) nonsense, there is a bloody good actor behind Mr. Efron?s perfect visage. I believe that one day we will all see the artist formerly known as Troy Bolton lifting one of those prestigious gold men in triumph of being able to break free from tween sensation to the star of our time. To say that in 17 Again, Zac is soaring, flying, there not being a star in heaven that he can?t reach would not only be the worst joke of all time, but also completely accurate. In High...

Review of 17 Again (DVD)

Brilliant HD Laptop

Advantages: Thought has been put into every aspect of the laptop
Disadvantages: Bit low on usb ports

...Dell in my view are amazing with laptops, desktops, servers, the whole lot. This sleek Inspiron 17 is for me one of the best dell sells for value. If you buy from the dell website you can personalise it like add a bigger hard drive ect. Starting price at the dell website is £349 which includes VAT and shipping. The screen is superb, 17.3 inches and a wide screen like quite a few laptops. It has a 1600x900 resolution which HD giving spectacular quality. The base model comes with vista home basic and a nice 160 GB hard drive. The battery life is quite good around 6 hours I can get out of mine not watching a hd video. It has a built in 1.3MP webcam with microphone along with the base which is good quality. Includes 3 usb ports and also comes with ATI Mobility Radeon graphics. There are many cool and sleek colours you can choose from along...

Review of Dell Inspiron 17

Boots 17 Liquid Eyeliner

Advantages: Quite cheap; didn't irritate skin or eyes; looks okay
Disadvantages: Pale colour, thin texture, poor staying power

...I don't feel fully made-up without wearing liquid eyeliner, which gives a definite, precise line on the upper eyelid to enhance the lashes and define the eye. Not all cosmetic brands produce liquid eyeliner; for instance, I don't think Maybelline or Boots Natural Collection offer one in their ranges. I experiment with different brands of make-up occasionally to make sure I'm not missing out on bargain prices or better quality items. If I recall correctly, I bought the 17 Liquid Eyeliner as part of a money-saving offer (3 for 2 on 17 cosmetics). It is usually priced at £3.91 for a tube. One tube of liquid eyeliner tends to last me a few months, so that is a reasonable price. Boots describe it as "a creamy and smudge proof eye liner perfect for creating a defined and dramatic look". I bought it in Black, my usual shade. The liquid...

Review of Boots No.17 Liquid Eyeliner

J17 - J 17 or Just 17

Advantages: Good for teens, tackles current problems with a good approach, latest news, gossip, fashions
Disadvantages: expensive, many adverts

...J 17 – is it ‘J17’, ‘J 17’ or ‘Just 17’? Over the last few years, its name seems to have changed numerous times; can’t they make up their mind? Unfortunately, they also cannot make up their minds about the price. When I first bought the magazine, it cost me about £1.40 – far too expensive, yet now, for the same magazine, it is an astonishing £1.90. Lucky for me, my parents pay for it, because I can honestly say I doubt I’d waste £1.90 a month on a magazine, however popular/good/fashionable it is. The magazine is usually about 122 pages long, with on average, 18 of these being taken up with adverts. Although annoying in principle, the prices would be even higher without them, and what they do actually advertise, is relevant to teens, and I have occasionally bought a new...

No17 Metallic Eyeshadow

Advantages: High pigment colour, well priced
Disadvantages: None that I can think of!

...revamped No17 range. No17 Metallic Eyeshadow it was called unfortunately I don't have the name of the shade to hand as I am at work at the moment but I will add it at a later date for anyone who is interested. Now I must admit I don't usually tend to buy anything from the No17 cosmetic range as I can never seem to find anything I really like that much but since they have had an overhaul I have found a few items that I like. The eyeshadow which comes in a small pot and comes in tablet form has a silver plastic container with a clear screw lid with the distinctive 17 logo on it in silver writing. One of the things I liked about the pot was that the lid was totally clear so you could easily see the colour of the shadow through it, there's nothing worse than having to keep opening up pots to see what the colour is like inside. They do...
