Sony Nec Optiarc AD-7241S-0B 24X Dual Layer DVD+/-RW SATA Drive with LightScribe, Bulk (Black)

If you read independent benchmarks, you will find that it’s one of the best out there. In my own tests, I found that it does what it should, and does it well.I haven’t tested the lightscribe, but I have tested reading DVDs and CDs, and this drive is fast. I’ve also had no problems burning [...]

Review of Diamond Life

Diamond Life

There has never been a singer quite like Sade Adu.Although she is of Nigerian origin, and her voice is clearly that of a woman of color, she is equally influenced by her English upbringing; the resulting combination of African heat and British coolness, particularly when combined with her band’s elegant mixture of both American and [...]

Sony DSC-TX7 10.2MP CMOS Digital Camera with 4x Zoom with Optical Steady Shot Image Stabilization and 3.5 inch Touch Screen LCD (Blue)

The DSC-TX7 was introduced this week (Jan 2010). Overall I am very pleased with it. I can finally take indoor pictures with an acceptable success rate, which has not been possible with older point and shoot cameras except in flash mode. In bright light conditions, or with flash, the camera performs comparably to other point [...]

The Best of Sade

I was never a big fan of Sade until her newest release LOVERS ROCK came out, took me ashore and then blew me away. I was never one to listen to anything associated with R&B either until Sade opened my doors into the world of neo-soul which just threw me for a loop. It’s kind [...]

Sony DSC-W350 14.1MP Digital Camera with 4x Wide Angle Zoom with Optical Steady Shot Image Stabilization and 2.7 inch LCD (Black)

I was looking for a small camera to keep with me when I didn’t want to lug my big and heavy pro grade DSLR, and I’m finding the Sony generally works out for me pretty well. It’s easy-to-use and relatively high performance for a compact point and shoot camera, and it’s capable of producing good [...]

Stevie Ray Vaughan - Live at the El Mocambo [VHS]

There is nothing like seeing great blues in a small club.Stevie has done a lot of great live work (except while in the depths of his drug abuse),but this video is the pinnacle of what he was capable of.This small clubin Toronto, with rowdy fans has more energy and fire than any arena,stadium or theatre [...]
