Dell Studio 540MT

Advantages: Quiet, Good looking
Disadvantages: Button under the dvd draw

...After weeks of searching the internet for a new computer, I finally settled for the Dell Studio 540. I have owned this computer for a little over two months now, and have to say, that I am quite pleased with it?s performance. When it was delivered it was well packed, and all the glossy parts of the base unit were covered with protected covering, which takes a few moments to peel off. Everything was pre-installed so I didn?t need to use the enclosed windows vista operating disc, or drivers. Once I plugged it in, the first thing I noticed was how quite it was compared to my old pc, the first few seconds it?s just a wee bit loud, but even that is still quieter than my old pc, but it soon settles down to just a whisper. If there are any gripes with this pc then it as to be the button that is pressed to open the dvd tray. Opening the tray is...

Windsor Inn- Windsor Out

Advantages: Good location, triple room available, price
Disadvantages: Lots of stairs, NO HOT WATER, Not very clean

...~~The Windsor Inn~~ ~~Booking~~ A girls holiday was in order and Cork seemed like the perfect location as it was slightly cheaper than Dublin but there was still lots to do. After trailing through many search websites we finally came across The Windsor Inn hotel. So this is where our problems began. We booked the hotel through booking.com and got to the end of the whole confirmation part and paid when a pop-up came along saying the room we'd paid for was not available. I tried contacting booking.com who confirmed that no payment had been made, I even phoned my credit card company to make sure. So an hour later we'd booked another hotel and I went to my emails and low and behold I found that I had confirmation of the Windsor Inn saying that we did have the room. (I eventually paid for 2 hotels in the end and had a real problem...

Windsor Life

Advantages: trouble free investments
Disadvantages: not managed by company

...Introduction: I have been a customer of Windsor Life for about 15 years so I thought it might be useful for me to share my experiences with you. I took out a private pension and a long term Additional Wealth Plan with them shortly after buying my home. A little background on Windsor Life: Windsor Life Assurance was purchased in 2004 by Swiss Re Group, which has been a well known insurer to other insurance companies since 1860. Its headquarters in the UK are in Telford and has managed more than 75 million in funds under management. It specialises in investments be they lump sum, regular savings, life insurance or pensions. When I took out my policies it was with General Portfolio, however they then changed name to GAN and then were taken over or sold to Windsor Life. My good experiences with the company: I have been...

Legoland Windsor...Quick Day Trip Guide

Advantages: Lots to See and Do
Disadvantages: Expensive, Queues and short ride times

...Firsty I am going to keep the review to the main points. This is just my opinion and we will all make our own minds up. Trip early July 09 Legoland Windsor. Cost: Cons: Well lets be honest its not cheap: 1 Day Adult Ticket (16-59 yrs) £33.30 1 Day Child Ticket (3-15 yrs) £25.20 1 Day Senior Ticket (60+ yrs) £25.20 So for a typical family of 4 its over £100. Pros: The upside is that they must know its expensive because you can find find reductions in the ticket price all over the place. we go ours from a box of Walkers Crisps. The average reduction reduces the price of each ticket by 50%, better but still expensive. *Top tip: Look for discount vouchers, also available on Legoland web site* Travel and Parking: Pros: Its easily found with good signage. Cons: Congestion the nearer you...

Legoland Windsor

Advantages: Many different attractions which include unique sculptures made from LEGO
Disadvantages: A day is not really enough to explore the whole park.

...Lego Land Windsor What can I say, I went here on a school trip with my daughter, we travelled via coach which took around 1 ½ hours to get there. My personally opinion this is too long for children to be on a coach, especially 5/6 year olds. But this was more to do with the school, and not the place. Also this hinders you as you do not have as much time to explore the park. Now the park itself has plenty of Attractions from towns and building built entirely form LEGO, to rides. The most amazing thing about the park is the Lego and what can be achieved with time effort and plenty of money. Throughout the Park are man made sculptures made form LEGO, including a girl and boy which are situated outside the toilets. These were a great idea as the children new exactly which toilet to go to. So keep your eyes open as you...

Dell Studio 17 Laptop.

Advantages: Great machine for small price.
Disadvantages: None

...This is the most affordable Laptop computer ever.. Dell Studio 17 the price is right about $380.00 Where in these days you can get a Note Book Computer with this kind of money? The Studio 17 is as attractive or desirable as an XPS laptop, but it is more appealing than an Inspiron. With that in mind, it achieves its objective: to be cheaper than an XPS without sacrificing too much in the way of looks. Yes indeed there are better replacement machines available, but the Studio 17 hold its own with most. With than in mind we are talking about /or $370.00- $380.00 price range. This machine is powerful, effective, good looking, light weight and easy to handle. The scree is wide and rezolution is fantastic. These days it's just doesn't pay to spend too much money on computers because tomorrow they will become absolite. So you spend...

Brick your pants at Legoland Windsor

Advantages: Friendly staff, good facilities, easy to reach
Disadvantages: Th egift shop prices !

...or the website is wrong ! ~~~ Getting There ~~~ As I live in Newbury, Berkshire, getting to Legoland was very easy - hop onto the M4 and leave at junction 6 heading towards Windsor. Legoland is clearly signposted from the M4 and if I can find it then anybody can (I still get lost going to my mum's house). If you take the train then you can travel direct to Windsor and then catch one of the regular buses from the station straight to the park. The road system within the park has a speed limit of 20mph which is blatently ignored by some people who obviously consider themselves such good drivers that they can safely stop if a young child runs out in front of them, no matter what speed they are doing. There is ample parking with pavements to get to the park entrance too. ~~~ Opening Times ~~~ The park is open from around mid-March to...
