Logitech X-230

Advantages: clear sound, very low noise
Disadvantages: remote control would be nice

...An easy, plug'n'play sound system in cute-looking body with great performance. I was looking for new speakers for my laptop but then I decided I wanted more than just speakers and started searching through the lists of 2.1 and 5.1 sound systems. Originally I was about to buy a 5.1, but I realized such a set wouldn't be smart for a laptop which I wanna carry around and have it now on my desk, then on my bed, then on the floor etc, for which a 5.1 felt too much of cables and mass. I'm happy about my decision since the Logitech X-230 has proven to live up to the expectations based on what they promise, the sound is clear, full and I find it great for both music, games or movies. The subwoofer bass is strong and full, perfectly satisfying for almost cinema movie experience. You can hear hardly any noise and the volume range is wide enough...

Very good little printer (BJC - 210, same as 240)

Advantages: Very small reliable printer
Disadvantages: not dual cartridge

...I have used the BJC-210 (the same as the 240, just an older model) for about 3 years and it has never once not worked or given me any hassle. I first bought the printer as i needed one fast for school, so i thought i would buy a cheap one, then upgrade at a later date. I have never needed to upgrade the printer. The only thing that is a set back about this printer is that it isnt Dual cartridge, so if you want a colour print, you have to put the colour cartridge in and take the black out. therefore if you have a colour page with black text, the black text will come out a very dark green. This is onlly noticeable though if you look very carefully and dosent worry me too much. The printer is small. It tores the paper upright, and there is no paper tray, so you don't have to have a huge desk to store it on! very good printer if...

American History X

Advantages: Edward Norton; Dialogue; Tension; Story
Disadvantages: Propaganda

..."We're so hung up on this notion that we have some obligation to help the struggling black man, you know. Cut him some slack until he can overcome these historical injustices. It's crap. I mean, Christ, Lincoln freed the slaves, like, what? 130 years ago. How long does it take to get your act together?" --Derek Vinyard Edward Norton is one of those rare contemporary actors that you know whatever movie he's going to be in it's going to be good. American History X is by no means an exception, with Norton phenomenal in his performance as an ex-neo-Nazi attempting to prevent his brother from pursuing the path he did. Edward Furlong (Terminator 2) plays the young skinhead Danny Vinyard, criticised by his teacher (Avery Brooks) for turning in a paper on Mein Kampf. The black teacher then instructs Danny to create a report...

X-530

Advantages: Price/quality, look
Disadvantages: sensitive to interference

..., Most people aim at good quality sound in PC's. Often good sound card is not enough and better speakers must be bought. That means spending more money for good stuff, or less for cheaper brand. Not necessarily when considering Logitech X-530 5.1 speakers. First some esential tech data: Total pow RMS : 70 Watts Total peak pow: 140 watts Cable lenght: center:160cm front: 140cm/180cm rear: 450cm Installation is as simple as possible and described weel in manual. Very attractive design gives it professional look. Whole set is assembled with high quality components both inside and outside. Unfortunately there are too many cables and subwoofer looks like attatched to big spiderweb, however are quite thick and strong. Center, front, and subwoofer speakers cables are quite short; even for desktop use lenght is...

Kingston HyperX DRAM 4 GB PC2-6400

Advantages: Very fast
Disadvantages: none

...KingstonKingston HyperX DRAM 4 GB PC2-6400 is very good product.Based on the amount of RAM the system performance will depend.If we increase the amount of RAM the system will run smoothly keeping that in mind we can buy Kingston HyperX DRAM 4 GB When coming to gaming if we are using Windows VISTA we should use 4GB RAM because vista uses 500 to 700MB of RAM.So for smooth running of game we should have 4GB RAM.Here we are getting two 2 GB RAM that that will be more faster than single 4GB RAM. If you are buying for office use and you are working with softwares like Oracle products then we should have 4GB RAM and if we are buying for game development using Maya software then we should have 4GB RAM or even more RAM for better function. If we are using for entertainment such as watching movies or for using...

X-540

Advantages: Great price,great sound quality, matrix button gives great 5.1
Disadvantages: Lots of wires!, Remote on quite a short wire

...Logitech X-540 Surround Sound. I ordered ths off amazon for 49.99, it was sent by courier (Home Delivery Network Ltd) and arrived within 2 days of ordering. Very easy to set up and great price for full 5.1 surround sound. Took 10 mins to hook it up to my Xbox and is amazing while playing Gears of war :D... First thing you notice is the weight contained in the small box the Speakers come in,its about 1ft square and contains 1 Bass and 5 satellite speakers, each individually packed in plastic bags. The bass unit is quite bulky and for optimal quality should be placed on the floor, but if you dont have much room, (like me) then you can put it it behind your TV or something... The base is the main part of the speaker set up, on the back are about 8 jacks for you to plug in the seperate speakers and inputs. Each is colour coded so its...

American History X

Advantages: Great plot, superb characters and a theme that needed to be discussed
Disadvantages: violent

...Well my next review again is another film that was made during the 90's. Gosh they really don't make films like they use to. I must admit ive only seen this film twice once in high school and once with my friends, and both times the film just gives you a sense of shock. The film im going to review is the 1998, critically acclaimed "American History X", directed by Tony Kaye and Edward Norton and Edward Furlong. Ok two quick recaps here, Edward Furlong is the guy who was John Connor in Terminator 2, however just a wee bit more older in this film, but he still looks the same. We then have Edward Norton; you might recognise him from his earlier work in Primal Fear and The People vs. Larry Flynt I must admit this review will talk about some cruel and in some cases sadistic scenes, and for that I apologise if it causes any offence...

AKG K240 Studio Headphones

Advantages: Typical AKG bulid quality - sturdy, comfortable and brilliant sounding
Disadvantages: None that i can think of...

...Essentially the same as the old K240 DF's that I replaced, these are another high quality example of AKG's offerings. Sound quality is as excellent as ever. ...Sound... These are very versatile headphones as the sound reproduction is very good - as useful at home as they are in the studio. They have a good MF and HF range, good LF but can be a bit lacking sometimes - compared to the old 240DF's I had anyway. I use them at work sometimes for sound checks and they have always been pretty reliable. ...Durability... They've been dropped, contorted and ran over; they still work as well as ever. Reasonably thick, sturdy cable which not only avoids getting tangled up with itself unlike smaller cables, but also helps to prevent damage from twisting, cutting etc. ...Comfort... This was one of the main reasons I bought the newer...

X-Citing

Advantages: Great Acting, Fit men, Loads Of Action, Special Effects
Disadvantages: Got to wait for the next one

...So far I have really enjoyed the X Men films and so I couldn't wait to watch the latest offering from the X Men stable. I trotted off to my local cinema as soon as I had the opportunity and here is my review I have tried really hard not to give too much away so as not to spoil the film for anybody who hasn't yet seen it. X Men For those of you who are not familiar with the X men movies, Origins: Wolverine is the 4th movie in the series. X Men was originally a comic book by Marvel that has ben adapted into cartoon and movie format. The X Men are basically humans who have mutated. Not all the mutations are obvious some mutations are not visable. Unlike the first three movies X Men Origins: Wolverine, goes back into one of the character's pasts, in this case Wolverine, so we can see how he came to be and what shapes him. Wolverine...
