Advantages: This works!!!
Disadvantages: the colour

...It was thanks to the nice people here on ciao that I actually got to try out this stuff, I won it as part of a Tigi gift set in the recent colurings competition. To be honest if I had not won the prize I doubt that I'd have actually gone out and bought the stuff due to it being £8.50 a bootle and its rather off putting colour - a kinda pearlescent tourquoisey green! Apart from the colour this stuff is excellent! If you love coconut you'll love the smell of this stuff as it has a very natural coconut smell to it and not a chemically smell. The creative genius comes in a large recyclable bottle giving you 200mls of the green liquid. To be fair liquid is the wrong word to use in describing it's constitancy, its more like a watery cream. The instructions for use are found on the bottle in rather small lettering! No I don't need... Read review

Advantages: Cheap, ergonomic, button weight is just right
Disadvantages: Not very tolerant of dirt

...The Genius netmouse is an ideal alternative to Microsoft's Intellimouse range. Besides being much, much cheaper, the scroll button has advantages in online gaming over a wheel since it's much easier to press a button up or down than to mess about scrolling a wheel a certain amount of degrees. The mouse is very responsive, and the amount of pressure required to press the buttons is ideal. The only complaint I have is that the mouse is not very tolerant of dirt on the mouse ball - if there is a speck of dirt it will begin jumping and skipping. I have seen mice which handle small amounts of dirt much better.... Read review

Advantages: really fun and colourful
Disadvantages: make sure you order,could miss one otherwise

...With three children to my name aged from 4 to 11, there was something in PC GENIUS for all of them. We all know the best way for children to learn is by having fun, and this product is fun. Issue 4 is called The secrets of the human body, i had fun having a competition to pin point parts of the body and beleive me it is quite hard, ideal for my 11 year old, and me. For younger children it teaches shapes, colours, and opposites.At four years old my little one had fun sitting at the computer learning. Its easy to exit subjects by going to a door at the bottom of the screen. There are some colourful characters to help you through each issue including a Kangaroo,fox, and a panda. So give your children or child some education by having some fun together.... Read review

Advantages: Excellent when in peak condition
Disadvantages: Goes funny as it gets older

...I have been using the Genius netmouse since I got my first computer as it was old when I first got it I wasn't surprised that after six months it started to show signs of ageing. At this point I did what I could to make it better so I gave it a good cleaning inside but before long it started to play up. The main problem was that when you click once on anything, it will almost always double click for your which proves especially annoying when on the internet. Another problem with the mouse is that when I try to click and drag anything, it double clicks for me instead. Although i am criticising the mouse, it did work well when it was working properly. Unfortunately I cannot rate the mouse in relation to price because I was given it but as long as it holds, it's a good mouse but there are better ones available. This depends... Read review

Advantages: Very funny film
Disadvantages: Nothing

...really funny to cheer me up - and this film proved to be it. Real Genius is rated 15 and runs for 102 minutes. It was originally released in 1985 By Tristar Picture Inc. This DVD was released in 2002 by Columbia Tristar Home Entertainment. It cost £7.99. This disc comes in a normal plastic DVD case with the title of the film and a picture of Val Kilmer on the front. Val is sat on an office desk, wearing a shirt and shorts with an 'I love toxic waste' tee shirt underneath. The film is about a boy called Mitch Taylor (played by Gabe Jarret). Mitch is an extremely gifted fifteen year old. He applies to go to Pacific Technical College (even though he is about five years too young.) At a Winter Science Fayre, Professor Hathaway (played by William Atherton) a teacher at the College arrives to tell Mitch he has been accepted. Upon... Read review

Advantages: Eggers truly human voice commands respect - despite what sometimes, admittedly, comes across as arrogance.
Disadvantages: Perhaps a little long winded in parts. But you really have to remember that this is sincerely part of Eggers intended technique.

...the worst to happen. Then, when it does, we typically learn to deal with it but continue to worry about the little, pedantic things. Fans of Salinger may take particular note, but make no mistake; Eggers need not be compared to anyone. He is clearly in a class of his own. This is certainly heartbreaking, positively genius and I am staggeringly impressed.... Read review

Advantages: Clear, Loud, Stylish, Inexpensive
Disadvantages: Short connection wires

..., for the price of these speakers, they're a little gem. The sound is clear and loud - the two essential features of any speaker system. They make a good addition to any desktop and compliment your ears, eyes and wallet all in one simple package. Really, it doesn't take a Genius to figure this one out!... Read review

Advantages: Very catchy songs.
Disadvantages: The production is not perfect.

...think it's a little below the standard the 4 great gems before it had made. This song is not to be taking to seriously "our future is a madhouse and we are all moving in..." 6: Gamma Ray - I heard this is a cover of some less famous band, but don't remember their name. Probably they chose to cover this song since it's the same name as the band has. The song is definately well done and the crazy "gamma ray gamma ray gamma ray gama-gamma-gamma-ray, made of our existance, money and our failure, i am waiting foooor... the gamma ray" will spook in your mind long after you heard it, the chorus also has some very Mortal-Kombat alike sounding synth. Midtempo. 7: Insanity and Genius - The titletrack is also in midtempo. Strangely I think the titletrack is one of the weakest links of this album. It's written by Thomas Nack and Jan Rubach...

Advantages: Works with windows XP
Disadvantages: Not compatible with Vista

...Having bought the Look1320 for my new computer, Operating System is Windows Vista Premium. The web camera worked at first, due to a problem with my PC after changing the computer back to the factory settings, the web camera no longer works. After checking a few online forums I found out that Genius, will not be producing drivers for the web cameras to work with Vista. This is a contradiction to what the product description stated, as the camera is supposed to work with Windows Vista, and Windows XP. The Look1320 is a good web camera, that works well on Windows XP. For the price it is worth buying if you have Windows XP, though would not buy it if you have a Windows Vista operating system. It is worth paying for a more expensive web camera, as you should find that they will work well with all computer operating system, I would... Read review

Advantages: Cooks wonderfully every time
Disadvantages: Very large machine

...How did I ever live before this machine, I have owned a Panasonic Dimension 4 Genius machin for approximately 1.5 years ITS WONDERFUL. The machine is a combination microwave/grill/oven. I use it mainly for Jacket Potatoes, all you have to do is place the potatoe on the tray and press potatoe, it then cooks it for you to perfection, it is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, it does not dry the potatoe out. Of course because it is being microwaved and cooked at the same time it does take a little longer (on average approx 15 minutes), but, you can program the machine on a timer, so that it is ready the minute that you walk inside the door. I live a busy life, I work monday to friday and generally can not be bothered to cook myself something when I get home from work, this machine is great, I can throw a potatoe... Read review
