Advantages: easy to apply, nice smell
Disadvantages: bad packaging, not hypo-allergenic

...tried I could probably create a few more freckles, but I’m not sure that would be very attractive. So like I say, I know a few things about sun cream – especially high factor sun cream and Johnson’s “ultra” sun block is nothing to write home about. My favourite all-time sun cream is Vichy Capital Soleil, factor 60. But that’s not listed, so I’ll compare and contrast the two under this product heading. I hope there’s something for all you sun-worshippers out there too! ~~~The Science ~~~ As everyone knows by now, sunbathing for hours on end without protection is not good for you. The sun’s light contains two damaging forms of ultraviolet rays – UVA and UVB. UVB rays are the ones that cause most sunburn (and tanning) and skin cancer: the Sun protection factor quoted on sun...

Advantages: Cheap entry level Sun SPARC from 1997
Disadvantages: Build quality is PC like, and low cache processors

...The Sun UltraSPARC 5 workstation was brought out in 1997, and was priced so you could have one on your desk for approx 1000 US Dollars. They stopped shipping to customers in May 2002. These days, it is not a fast machine, but still they are perfectly useable for many workstation and server tasks. Processor and Memory - This model has an UltraSPARC IIi processor which is, of course, 64 bit and is clocked at 360 MHz. You can have 1GB of memory in the workstation, installed as up to 4 DIMMS, which must be installed in pairs. "Normal" PC memory will not work in these workstations. The 260MHz model only has 256kB cache (same with the 270MHz processor) For better performance, you need the 2MB cache version on the 333 or 400MHz versions. Storage - There is one HDD bay in the machine, although if you remove the floppy drive, you... Read review

Advantages: It smells lovely
Disadvantages: None.

...'Johnson's suncare baby Ultra Sun Block Lotion' is a title that hardly trips off the tongue easily. But it has a high SPF of 30 and is produced specifically for skin like mine, of an annoyingly delicate nature. It contains UVA and UVB protection with microflectors. Whatever they may be. I tried to find out for you but the johnson&johnson web site froze on me. The bottle say's that they act like tiny mirrors to safely protect your child's skin from the sun's harmful rays. It's a water resistant sun block, but it's reccommended you reapply frequently after immersing yourself in water for a long period of time. It's also sweat resistant (which is handy) and preservative and colourant free. I bought my bottle for £5.99, which is a good price for a sun block of such quality. I immediatly thought of my children (especially the baby... Read review

Advantages: NEBS compliant, 1U Ultra SCSI disk cage.
Disadvantages: EOL was 2002

...Here we have a handy little 1U disk cage, which will take up to three Ultra SCSI drives. Oh, and it's NEBS compliant, so you can put in datacenters and telephone exchanges. SCSI ports - Two single-ended ports, 68-pin SCSI connector - Can be daisy chained via port (2 max in a chain) Power - The disk cage can be powered by AC or DC power. (I used the AC model) which has an auto sensing power supply - takes 100 to 240 VAC. There is also a DC model, to go with the Netra range... The DC model will take -48 to -60 VDC. Drives - The drives are inserted at the front of the 19" rack mounted unit, SCA disks, on Sun SPUD type brackets. The SCSI bays are either ID 2,3&4 or 10,11&12 which is flexible enough if you have to chain two together. Uses - People will find these most useful as a chassis to put boot disks... Read review

Advantages: absorbs well
Disadvantages: can be hard to find in shops

...Having a few scars further to an operation, Lancome Soleil Ultra Protection Milk was recommended to me last summer, as it is SPF 50, which protects sensitive skin or areas that have scarring. The packaging recommends it should be used by people with sensitivity to the sun and also young children. Unlike many other sun creams it does not leave any white streaks or greasy residues behind. It has a fresh, summer smell to it which is difficult to describe. The packaging is quite simple, gold on white and comes in a 150 ml package. I have bought this before from Duty Free at airports although have struggled to find it in the UK at standard shops like Boots. The cost at Duty Free was approximately £15.00. I would recommend this product to anyone with scar damage or sensitive skin, although as I have found it is not the easiest... Read review

Advantages: Quick relief from pain, no upset tummies
Disadvantages: Price

.... What Anadin say: "For when you need strong pain relief, the concentrated liquid power of Anadin Ultra liquid capsules hits tough pain hard. Anadin Ultra liquid-filled ibuprofen capsules are easy to swallow and are specially formulated to relieve tough pain, letting you get on with your life." Anadin Ultra Ibuprofen are actually regular Ibuprofen, with a twist, rather than your plain and simple tablets or capsules, these are liquid capsules, they have liquid inside a tough shell. The tablets I had were a very attractive shade of green with 'Anadin' printed on the capsules. I did have a go at pressing these between my fingers but they did not burst, perforate or show any signs of doing so. Ibuprofen is not suitable for everyone, so according to the Anadin website, you should not be taking these if: You have or have ever had... Read review
