Advantages: Slimline, Well Featured, Looks Good
Disadvantages: No Firewire, Not thought out properly

...ThinkCentre... Think Smarter IBM’s range of workstations have always been backed up with a long history, after all shouldn’t IBM be the experts, they did “invent” the PC after all! IBM’s ThinkCentre range represents IBM’s mid-range business workstations, enough power and multimedia capabilities to run the top end office and productivity, whilst keeping costs down to make the systems as affordable as possible. A hidden but equally important part of the ThinkCentres resides inside the computer and installed on the hard drives, these discrete design decisions and software packages that are shipped with the machines. I have recently installed 86 IBM ThinkCentre S50’s at work; this review is my attempt to distil my experiences into words. WHATS IN THE BOX? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When the box arrives at your door, or in my case three... Read review

Advantages: very good processor with unique vast features.
Disadvantages: the flat screen looks too fragile.

...Well I have to come with the review of PC computer. Lenevo think center is a brand of computer that never made waves in the computer market. But I decided to give it a try by buying it and wanted to get rid of the popular dell, IBM and apple computers for some time. Well the lenovo think center computer has proved to be a bit different. Some features actually made me to purchase the product and are features like the administrator password, power on password, booting without mouse and key board, hard drive I/O control, usb control, serial port I/O control, boss Sequence control and diskette I/O control. These are the features that really made me to splash at about £250.60 on it. The lenovo thinkcentre A55 9265 Pentium D 915 2.8 GHz computer has host of unique think vantage technologies at competitive price. The processor... Read review

Advantages: Free to park, lots of shops and decent entertainment sections too.
Disadvantages: Gets busy at weekends, some very expensive places to shop and eat.

...NOTE : I have re-written this op almost completely as I felt I had more to add (and I'd already started it before realising I did it already - DOH) The Trafford Centre may well be the shoppers idea of Paradise (Moose perks up her ears.) Opened in September 1998, and just a stones throw from where I was living at the time, the massive centre took shape on top of previously overgrown waste ground in Davyhulme, Manchester. The Trafford Centre is among the largest shopping centres in Europe, but it has more to offer than just shops, as I’ll explain later. Before I go on I’ll say two things which make me qualified to write this op, firstly I’m a shopaholic, and secondly with the centre on my doorstep for 3 years I used to go there amazingly regularly, so I know it pretty well. As a result I’ve reviewed... Read review

Advantages: Good Value for Money, Swimming Pool
Disadvantages: Some of the staff's attitude

...& Fitness There is a very good selection of Aerobics classes available in the Galleon Centre including Pilates, Ab Blast, Body Pump, Aerobics for the terrified, Circuit Training, Spinning, Box-a-cise and Tums, Bums & Thighs amongst a whole lot more. A lot of these classes are aimed at beginners so anyone can go along and join in. The only class that I have done is the Spinning class which is a hard workout done to music while on bikes. This class was very tough and I felt like I could hardly walk when I got off the bike. 3) Swimming Pools The Galleon Centre has two swimming pools. There is a small, shallow childrens pool which also has a short flume going into it and there is also a large deeper pool which I think is thirty metres long. You can also learn to swim here as there are childrens swimming lessons for age three... Read review

Advantages: If you love sealife then you will probably like this
Disadvantages: Once you have seen it you have seen it all.

...to be quite dry. The milkshakes are nice though very thick and contain ice cream. There are only 2 flavours though chocolate and strawberry. There are a few kids rides in the café as well as arcade machines and a picture drawing machine. The gift shop sells cuddly toys and souvenir's. The prices are relatively high though. You can get a 10 % discount at the shop and café if you fill in a quiz sheet which is aimed at children. It takes you through the zones of the sealife centre and asks you questions at various points throughout the zones. You can find the questions around the sealife centre and you have to scratch which answer off you think it is. If you fill it all in you can get your 10 % discount at the gift shop or café. You can use a credit card in the gift shop and the minimum priced spend is over £2.50 whereas in the café you... Read review
