Kensington Laptop Lock

Advantages: Increase in laptop security
Disadvantages: Not the ultimate solution, but that cant be helped.

...INTRODUCTION ------------------------ What this nice bit of kit does, in a nutshell, is to act as a secure tether from your laptop to a stationary bit of furniture, for example, a radiator, or desk post. Thus reducing the ease at which the laptop could be ?re-located? when you don?t want it to be! MUST READ ? To even think about getting this product you must have the correct docking slot for this attachment to fix into, otherwise it?s just a waste of money as you can?t attach it to your laptop. The good thing is that this ?docking slot? (its a little flattened oval shape on the side / back of the laptop with a small unlocked padlock above it. The laptop manual should tell you where, and if you have one.) is pretty much a standard on most laptops now. Also if you don?t have a slot, you can get conversion kits from Kensington...

Review of Kensington Microsaver Security Cable Lock

Some things are just overlooked...

Advantages: Good quality, feels secure
Disadvantages: It doesn't do much, but its not supposed to

...I'm off to uni in october, and i'm going to be taking my laptop. I know you don't really think about it, but how many people are actually concerned about having things stolen from their rooms whilst at uni? Probably the most expensive item in there that will appeal to burglars will be the laptop. All laptops are built with a "Kensington Security Slot" already. Many people don't know it exists. Other people just think of it as a small hole in the side of the laptop. This hole can be the difference between having a laptop after returning from some place and not having a laptop. The Kensington Security Cable is the best way to secure the laptop. It works simply as a cable tie. One end is looped to itself, so that the other end can be tied into a hole in the table or table leg (or some sort of fixed hole elsewhere) and through this...

Kensington Mortgages

Advantages: You get what you need out of them
Disadvantages: Obscenely high interest rates, no reward for loyalty.

...I took over a mortgage with my partner in 2005 following her messy divorce and our of desperation with all the debts her ex left her. We were directed to Kensington via a local Broker, which I have now learnt to be probably more to do with their high rate of commision to the broker and little to do with our own personal circumstances. The most they would offer us was £60,000 despite the value of the house being £30,000 more. This was largely due to the absolutey massacred state of my partners credit rating because of the joint finances the ex left her paying..... and the fact I was only on a modest full time wage (NHS!) By the time all the kinks were ironed out, including removal of a charge on the house thanks to the cursed ex, we were relatively happy to have settled, had enough left over for the rest of the double glazing...

Kaspersky Internet Security - average protection

Advantages: Provides basic tools for anti virus, easy to install
Disadvantages: none really, just prefer AVG.

...As a university student we have to pay a rediculously high amount for tuition fee's so the college I am doing my foundation degree in offers free laptops for the duration of the course. The laptop comes fully equipped with Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 and it really does the job. Most anti virus software is available for free with the opportunity to upgrade however it is worth it from a business perspective, to buy something like this. Kaspersky - available from http://www.kaspersky.co.uk/kis25orkav30?THRU&reseller=43021&gclid=COjpgZPllp4CFVtn4wod6BIzlw - is a security software which provides anti virus protection and identity theft protection. I often purchase things online and I, like anybody, have downloaded applications. Loosing work for university would be incredibly frustrating so I am pleased with the protection available...

Official Wii Component Video Cable

Advantages: Far better picture than standard composite, better looking games
Disadvantages: Expensive, Only needed for larger screens 32" or greater

...After the release of the little white bundle of joy on the 8/12/2006 people were given a composite cable to show off their new shinny new console. AV enthusiasts all know a composite signal is the poor quality option for showing video on their TV's - what people really want is RGB or Component video input. As console manufactures are out to make a profit they usually bundle the cheapest and most compatible option with the console and then release upgrades to that product for people who need or want it. Nintendo understand this and have released two video upgrade options - the Wii RGB cable or the Wii Component cable. Lets get things straight from the off, The Nintendo Wii is not a High Definition Console, What this cable does offer is a enhanced image resolution of 480p. I finally got hold of the component video cable after...

Review of Nintendo Wii Component Video Cable

Wii component cable- Well worth the money

Advantages: sharper/brighter picture, opens up more ports on TV, saves hassle.
Disadvantages: quite expensive for a simple console improvement

...The Nintendo Wii component video cable really is a sound investment if you are the owner of an HD/ LCD TV, and obviously a nintendo Wii. Before i bought it, i had trouble with the picture quality and contrast on many of the games. Games such as Wii Sports were fine, but more of the action/adventure games such as Zelda or Splinter Cell give a very dark picture which can sometimes be hard to make out what was happening. The only way i could combat this problem was to adjust the contrast on my television which did help, but was alot of hassle. With the component cable, the picture is not only much brighter, but much sharper and defined. It gets rid of the hassle of having to turn the contrast back down after playing on the Wii and improves the overall gaming experiance. Another bonus is that on your HD TV, this cable plugs into...

A simple security light for the garden

Advantages: It costs nothing to run
Disadvantages: It isn't very bright but it is adequate

...I recently bought a log cabin for the garden and decided to light the inside using a solar light so the only thing remaining was to find a way to illuminate my pathway to it. I live in a rural area with no street lights so it gets pretty dark round here on cloudy nights but I didn't want anything that would blind the neighbours or anything bright enough for two First Division football teams so I was happy to look for something solar powered that would do the job and cost nothing to run once it was installed. I quick search of Amazon brought up a selection and I settled for the Smart Solar Powered Duo Security light which has two lights that swivel and which contain a total of 10 LEDs as I thought that would give me a reasonable light and a few direction options once fitted. Design Features The light duly arrived...

Disadvantages: None

...REASON FOR PURCHASING I am fond of taking pictures with my Nokia 7360 mobile phone.There are always unexpected moments that I want to treasure by capturing them with my mobile phone.

Premier Inn Kensington

Advantages: Good location, proximity to tube, good area for foor and drink, clean rooms
Disadvantages: Price of breakfast, food in bar, very small amount of amenities, booking in

...Thanks for reading my review, I have done a full review of the Premier Inn London Kensington below however if you are simply interested in the advantages and disadvantages of the hotel I've placed a little summary at the bottom of the page. Hope you find it useful and as usual feedback is welcome. I'll start by saying this for the Premier Inn Kensington, either it does not cash in on big events such as West End Live, or it does not know about them. Either way this became the reason for our stay over West End Live weekend 2008. At £84 for a double room per night it isn't expensive considering its proximity to the tube and to the heart of London, even for a normal weekend. However, this particular weekend we booked the hotel after most others were full and the few that weren't were charging highly for rooms. So why give it three...
