TI-83 Great Calculator

Advantages: Easy to use and very powerfull
Disadvantages: Can't intigrate or differentiate

...I've been using this calculator for the last six years now and it is my favorite model of all Texas instrument calculators. Capabilities: This model is capable of Trig, statistics, multifunction graphing and there are a ton of online programs that can be downloaded to assist in higher level math. In addition literally hundreds of games have been made specifically for the TI-83 model. Functions, Parametric equations, Polar equations, and Sequences can all be graphed using this model. You can also create new executable programs either on the calculator itself or on a computer. The calculator comes with a usb transfer cord so anything created or found via the computer can be easily transferred to the device. Layout: Everything in the TI-83 starts at the home screen, which is blank ready for input of instructions. The 83 does lack...

Review of Texas Instruments TI 83

Ti-83 addiction

Advantages: Does anything you could ask it to.
Disadvantages: You forget how to do even the most basic maths without it.

...The MUST HAVE scientific and graphing calculator in terms of functionality. Having done the International Baccalaureate, my TI-83 was an integral part of my life. Insanely difficult to learn how to use simply because it does so much, once you do learn a few tricks with it you're set to do even the most complex calculations in the blink of an eye, assuming you actually know what you're trying to solve. Being a graphing calculator, it does have a relatively large screen, but in the TI-83 this is only about 6 by 4cm. Still that certainly is good enough to see whether your data forms a curve or a straight line. Changing the window on your graphs (i.e. the X and Y scales) is dead easy using the aptly named "Window" button. But that's absolutely nothing. With a bit of manual reading (if you can bear the weight of the massive manual) you...

The Wii Fit Plus is an excellent add on, and great fun!

Advantages: fun, good for you, multiplayer
Disadvantages: none really

...The wii fit has been keeping me happy for quite a while now, but eventually when you have played and tried all the games within it eventually it gets left in a box behind the sofa, for 72 days according to my wii fit. So when i saw the Wii Fit plus was for sale I pre ordered it straight away, it gives a much needed new enjoyable boost into the what was already great wii fit. There are many extra fun things to do whilst getting fit with the Wii Fit Plus in my opinion. One of the great things is that it transfers all of your data from the wii fit easily and quickly in one click. You can now weigh your babies and pets on this. There are three new yoga moves - Spine extension, gate and grounded V. Three new Muscle workouts - Balance bridge, Side lunge and Single leg reach. However there are two new sections which I find great these are...

Sky Plus is a Plus

Advantages: Record, rewind, series link
Disadvantages: Expensive, bad customer service

...If you love TV then you probably love your Sky + box and if you haven't already got one you really really need to get one. For me this box is definitely a Plus with one little Minus but I will get to that later. Sky + is a personal video recorder that allows the user to record, pause and instantly rewind live TV. It works in conjunction with a Sky television subscription. It was launched in September 2001 and in February 2008 Sky announced that over 3 million households now have a Sky + box. Sky + is such a benefit to have. You access all the features of the recorder through your Sky + remote. Recording - Sky + allows you to record any programme that you like. It is very simple to do. You do not have to set any timers or set up any video tapes, etc, the show is saved as hardware on the Sky box. Basically you search through...

Review of Sky + (Plus)

Reach for the Sky ( Plus of course)

Advantages: We watch what we want when we want
Disadvantages: None for me

... SKY PLUS Move over sliced bread, there's a new kid on the block! From now on I will describe things that are good,as the best thing since Sky Plus! I'm of an age to have been around for the first of the Ferguson video players (as so wonderfully described by the brilliant Peter Kay). There was no remote control- you had to walk over to the machine to do all the recordings, and the amount of times we settled down to watch a film my better (?!?) half had recorded only to find a recording of something completely different. My goodness didn't we think we were something, with our mock leather video covers that held recordings of Corrie and the likes! But know videos and video recorders are a thing of the past and will soon be appearing on the Antiques Roadshow. The advent of recording onto DVD seemed to...

Casio fx-83EX is a great school calculator!

Advantages: See Review
Disadvantages: See Review

...will be some useful functions on these type of calculators (like solving quadratic equation and drawing out graph transformations etc.) that you cannot do on the Casio fx-83EX. But even now, at university, i still keep this calculator as it is so easy to use and has useful functions that you sometimes don't even get on the very expensive calculators! I would definitely recommend this product! Another last note is to say that to be honest, you don't even need to bother with the instruction manual as it is so simple to use and it is a commonly used calculator in schools so the teachers are bound to know how to do everything!...

Review of Casio FX 83 ES

Sky Plus

Advantages: Too many to mention
Disadvantages: I don't know, not as yet.

...Last year I visited a member of the family and while sitting in their front room chatting, I noticed their rather large TV to which I made a comment. However the reply I got was not so much about the TV, but the Sky plus box underneath. They raved about it," Got to get one". I thought big deal, so it records TV; I've got a VCR at home does the same thing. Until I rang Sky about renewing my contract some months ago and they offered me Sky plus at a reduced rate, to which I took. Installation came round quite quick, in a matter of weeks. Although I had the old system, he still put in a new dish and wiring with the minumum of fuss. One of the things did noticed was that as it raining outside, the engineer put on these plastic covers over his shoes so as not to cause any mess on my flooring. Well, we've had this Sky plus for a few...

On The Plus Side

Advantages: cheap, smells great, nice presentation case
Disadvantages: some men may prefer something more masculine

...I was bought Diesel Zero Plus Masculine for Christmas last year. The Price Although this was bought, I had a quick look around and have found out that a 75ml bottle, it will set you back only £10 which is extremely reasonable considering most aftershaves are around £30. The Packaging Diesel Zero Plus Masculine comes with really unique, eye catching packaging. It has a perspex dome which sits on the base. The base then has two raised plastic sections, which allows the bottle to the wedged in place. There is a clamp on the spray section at the top to stop the bottle being sprayed accidentally which is quite useful to save any wastage. The bottle itself is a bright red colour, with a silver top. Diesel is written in big silver letters on the front of the bottle along with the usual info such as size etc. The Smell This...

Review of Diesel Zero Plus Eau De Toilette Spray for Him

Sky Plus deserves an A+

Advantages: pause and rewind live tv, record with just 1 button, user friendly
Disadvantages: can't think of any

...Sky plus is definitely worth the extra money, it makes life so much more simple. Use the sky plus planner to record your favourite programmes by only pressing one single buttton, and select series link to set that programme to recore every single time its on, meaning that you will never miss a single episode! The planner also arranges your recordings by date, so you'll have no trouble finding what you want. The fantastic recording system also means that you can pause and rewind live TV to replay your favourite part again and again. Sky plus also allows you to 'viewer define' your recordings, meaning that you can select the exact moment you wish to watch a recording from so there's is no waiting whilst you take time to find the place your looking for. If all that's not enough then how about this- you can even record two different channels...

Review of Sky + (Plus)

Sky plus good quality product

Advantages: saves you loads of time
Disadvantages: you have to pay initially

...My question is, in this techno advanced world where we seem to have more to do and even less time on our hands who can live without a sky plus box? Certainly no parent I know! You may think you can but that's just because you haven't got one - trust me! Basically you can record any channel you have access to at any time as long as you only record 2 things maximum at the same time that are on different channels. If you do this however be aware you will not be able to view another channel but you can view something you have previously recorded. This is stored in your planner, this is basically your hard drive which contains all your recordings you can manage them out of here and protect them from deletion and watch at your leisure. My typical day is jam packed up until 8 ish so at this point sky plus comes into its own. I watch...
