Advantages: hassle free networking
Disadvantages: complicated

...The ZyXEL router. Networking is a great solution if your family has more than two PC's and / or an XBOX © / Playstation 2 ©. If you only have two PC's then a router is not really necessary because with Windows XP © and a crossed CAT 5 network cable (2 network cards) you can quite easily network both PC's with very little Hardware hassle. However, if you have two PC's (XBOX ©/ PS2 ©, then a switch and a ROUTER is a wonderful system. The ZyXEL © Prestige 310 router was the one I went for. A simple yet functional router. A rectangular plastic box with no fancy design. Straight forward and simple Hardware installation! It came with a user manual, A/C power supply and a RS-232 (com port) cable but no network cable. Plug the modem into the router and then plug the router into the switch (hub). Finally plug all your PC... Read review

Advantages: Low-cost, reliable, full-featured
Disadvantages: Doesn't look very cool (but who cares?)

...Over the last few months I've tried Wireless ADSL routers from 4 different manufacturers, using 54g wireless cards with WPA encryption. The Belkin one would randomly refuse to allow 1 or 2 wireless clients to connect. The Netgear one had very poor range (even though it was supposedly "RangeMax"). The Linksys one would randomly refuse to assign IP addresses to wireless clients after they'd connected. The Zyxel one just works. Reliably. 100% of the time. All 4 routers were running the latest firmware. I even tried the helpdesk services for the other 3 and they all came up with the same irrelevant suggestions ("Try a different channel", "Try restoring the factory defaults", "Try upgrading the firmware") - I ended up wondering if they were all actually written by the same person! Then I tried the Zyxel and my life... Read review

Advantages: small, easy to use, easy to install, user friendly
Disadvantages: range is not as good as a router

...I have to say I'm very impressed with the Zyxel USB stick, I have a wireless set up in my house but one of my PCs did not have a wireless card. This is an extremely cheap alernative to fitting a card and ideal for those who don't want to, or don't know how to open up the PC and install them. Zyxel have made a stylish little USB device with a very easy to use software interface. Literally within minutes you are up and running and able to connect to any wireless network of your choice, within reason of course. Another neat feature is that it can be used as an Access Point (AP) this means if you haven't got a wireless router you can use the Zyxel for this purpose. Setting it to AP mode and setting it up with or without password protection you can then have other people connect to your network through their wireless devices. Perfect... Read review

Advantages: EXCELLENT FOR INTRICATE AND DETAILED WORK
Disadvantages: NONE THAT I CAN THINK OFF

...MODELCRAFT COMPACT FLOURESCENT TABLE LAMP MAGNIFIER MODEL NO PLA8093 It is a sad fact of life, that the older you get, in the majority of cases, your eye sight starts to deteriorate. Over the last few years, I have started to notice this. I am 41 years of age before you ask. I am also interested in constructing small scale models, which involves delicate painting. Unfortunately, the older I get, to be able to focus properly, I need to hold objects further away to be able to focus. Gradually, over time, this is becoming more and more inconvenient, as I need to paint my models at close range, and not at arms length. At some stage, I have nightmares that one day my arms will not be long enough to compensate. I have decided recently to do something about it, and have bought a Modelcraft Compact Fluorescent Table Lamp Magnifier... Read review

Advantages: 2 movies in one, bonus trailer footage, two audio language if you can't stand dub.
Disadvantages: None i can think off sorry.

...Reason why its excellent to me is because both movies the defender and the enforcer were both really good movies, the first movie the defender, Jet Li plays the part of a chinese PLA officier trained as one of the worlds best body guards, train in a series of martial arts with weapons training. His mission is to protect a girl who witnesses a murder conducted by a traid lord. During his mission he works along side two hong Kong Police officiers, along with the girls younger brother.

Advantages: Great music, friendly atmosphere and classy support act.
Disadvantages: Can't think of any....

...see the chemistry between the band on stage and the reason for this is simple. They aren’t manufactured, they grew up together and although didn’t form the band until later they have been plaing together for so long that they really have created a very special bond. All in all the gig was well presented the security was excellent nobody got hurt and everybody had a great time. The support band Feeder were on top form with lead singer Grant encouraging the people to support British bands and then putting in a very strong live performance vocally. The merchandise was top quality and reasonably priced and the tour guide is now one of my most treasured possessions and will never cease to bring back memories of that night. The atmosphere was amazing, the music awe inspiring and venue was perfect. “You have to remember where you’re from... Read review
