...A pair of glasses with thick black frames, a white coat and a PHD in Computer Science are just some of the things you no longer need to network your computers ! The D-Link DE805TP hub and existing software is more or less all you will need. Microsoft made the first move to making networking easy with Windows 95 and subsequent releases incorporating built in network software. But now D-Link have demystified the hardware side with a true plug and go solution. Just add network cards and standard RJ45 cables to your computer and you're off and running. If you use Windows 2000/XP, it's even easier, more about that later... If you find you have been caught on the upgrade roundabout over the years and have accumulated a number of computers, you can now put them to good use and link them all. If the kids have a computer in the bedroom... Read review

...The D-Link 805TP is a great hub to use if you have very little desk space available, and need to network up to 5 workstations together either in a workgroup or a LAN environment. The Hub has 5 LED lights on (5th port is the uplink port to connect to your local LAN if you desire). The remaining 4 ports have UTP connections with corresponding LED's. Power is drawn from a AC/DC jack plug transformer. Great value annd a great buy! If you need a hub then this is the one to buy!... Read review

Advantages: too many to list!brilliant
Disadvantages: large for a small garden

...I purchased A T.P swing deck when my son was 3.I wanted an outdoor toy which would be weather proof,safe and last.This product has not disappointed. There are several options available which incorporate climbing,swinging and sliding-to name a few. 1.The explorer is a basic climbing frame with 2 height adjustments to grow with your child,it can be added to with a variety of options,but does not accomodate a swing. 2.The challenger is similar but with a little more to it.Like the explorer the height can be adjusted,and it can take a slide and play tent in addition to other fun accessories.TP have just added the acorn play frame which is more compact and would suit a smaller garden. I chose the swingdeck option as I really liked the rockabout swing - a large double seated swing also suitable for a baby ,with a harness... Read review

...What do you do with an energy filled 5 year old? Buy him a trampoline to bounce it all out on. You want more? OK. tp do a large range of climbing frames, trampolines and all manner of accessories for keeping kids amused in the garden. They have a great full colour catalogue which covers everything in detail with sizes, part numbers and recommendations. Having decided to buy a trampoline, tp was our first port of call having already bought one of their climbing frames and been impressed by the ease of build and general quality. We picked up a catalogue from John Lewis/Waitrose and after checking sizes, placed an order for a medium sized one which arrived a few days later. Putting it together is very straightforward. Some fairly chunky but lightweight metalwork needs to be slotted together to act as the base and main ring... Read review

Disadvantages: Big

...We bought a TP Challenger climbing frame in July - what a great purchase! Our two children (3 and 5 years had outgrown their Little Tikes toys. We went along to North Park Farm Activity Toys in Albourne West Sussex which has a vast array of activity toys that children can test at their leisure. After an hour of play we decided on the TP Challenger. The Challenger is a basic climbing frane and monkey bars, to which you can add an assortment of extras:- - slide - tent - monkey bridge - jungle run - scramble net - firemans pole - basketball game - twizzler and toddler kits (which are basically heavy duty plastic to stop children falling through monkey bars etc). It can keep an active one year old happy to an adventurous 8 year old. How? Well it comes in 2 different heights. Once the children have outgrown... Read review

Disadvantages: there are not many good tracks

...I requested this album as a Christmas present in the wake of "I Wish" being released. I thought that the whole album would have the same quality as that single, but to my disappointment I found that the contrary was actually true of the album. Track Listing: 1. TP-2 2. Strip For You 3. R&B Thug 4. The Greatest Sex 5. I Don't Mean It 6. Just Like That 7. Like a Real Freak 8. Fiesta 9. Don't You Say No 10. The Real R Kelly 11. One Me 12. I Wish 13. A Woman's Threat 14. I Decided 15. I Mean (I Don't Mean It) 16. I Wish - remix (To The Homies That We Lost) 17. All I Really Want 18. Feelin' On Yo Booty 19. The Strom Is Over Now The album is a pretty much mediocre one for an artist with such talent like R Kelly has but with 19 tracks you get a wide variety of tracks to listen to. A lot of the tracks are unmemorable... Read review

...INTRO I do nearly all of my shopping over the Internet - it is great for finding bargains without trekking round the shops for hours, you can often find unusual things, plus you get them delivered to your home. Simple! Most delivery services I have dealt with are happy to leave parcels with neighbours or to deliver to me at work. I have rarely encountered any difficulties until recently when I had the misfortune of dealing with a couple of retailers who somewhat misguidedly think Initial City Link (hereafter known as ICL) provide a delivery service. THE COMPANY According to their web site (city-link.co.uk), ICL were founded in 1969 and pioneered same day and next morning delivery services. They are part of Rentokil Initial plc, although it
