Simple, effective but does the job
Review of Fox mini microns by
yackers1
Advantages: small, simple and reliable
Disadvantages: can't think of any
...it makes them feel good when other anglers (whose alarms are silent) look over and wish it was their alarms making a noise.
In addition if I had sensitive alarms I would get no sleep whatsoever. I am such a light sleeper that I hear every bleep of my alarms.
The Mini Micron is the best alarm I have ever owned. It is so simple - just press the button and hey presto. You can't adjust the sensitivity, the tone, the light colour or anyhting. You can't even adjust the volume. Brilliant! If you want it louder then you have to get a sounder box.
The Mini Micron registers vicious movements only so it won't go off at the slightest brreze, or vibration on the bank.
The Mini Microns are 100% reliable. They are a sealed unit and totally water proof - I even dropped mine in the lake and it STILL worked.
If you like the differing tones, and like to have...

Dated but still a good buy
Review of Delta Force (PC) by
CC2000
Advantages: Exciting and challenging
Disadvantages: Outdated graphics; Over too quickly
...Delta Force is a realistic first person shooter in which you play the part of a US operative. The game has five campaigns, each with about 8 missions to complete, which can involve anything from stopping nuclear terrorists in Russia to protecting the Indonesian president from attack while he is on tour.
The thing which lets Delta Force down, however, is the graphics. It uses the dated Voxel Space 3 system which not only makes the landscape seem blocky but also makes it hard to see enemies or buildings in the distance. So, there is a good chance you could start shooting trees while the real enemy comes up from behind and shoots you in the back. This being said, Delta Force was released some years ago when Voxel Space graphics were the latest technology.
As well as the single player campaigns, Delta Force also allows multi-player action...

Review of Delta Air Lines - DAL by
queenjewls
Advantages: food is ok, punctuality
Disadvantages:
...Delta - we were in America a couple of years ago and wanted to go to lots of different places that happened to be very dispersed. We flew on a number of airlines and I have to sy that Delta provided the best service. The air hostesses were exceptionally polite and the flight departed on time and came in on time - always a bonus. Although airline food is renowned as being not dissimilar to petfood - Delta exceeded all expectations and provided us with an edible meal - in contrast to some of the other dishes on other airlines that were served in front of us that they claimed constituted a meal!...

Impressive
Review of Delta Force 2 (PC) by
Jay22
Advantages: Good Graphics
Disadvantages:
...This is an unbelievably good sequal to the origonal Delta Force. The gaphics are superb due to the added Voxel space32-bit graphics engine. The game play is excellent as you assume the role of a delta force team member. Your objectives are to stop Terrorism and save hostages in a variety of different locations around the world. There is a wide range of weaponry to aid you in your mission. The sound FXs are good but, the way that there is silence for around 75% of the missions does put you off slightly....

Delta heavy blow
Review of Delta Sky Miles by
Victor77
Advantages: Can convert points to HHonors programme
Disadvantages: Actually Flying on Delta
...I am a member of this frequent flyer scheme but it is not a great club. Sure you earn miles if your stuck fling Delta, but why would you want to. Its not a great airline their customer service is awfull.
My parents for instance took an around the world business class flight on three airlines Singapore, Swiss air and Delta When it came to the Delta segments in the United States they only downgrade them to Economy. Why because they only have first and economy in the states and they wouldnt upgrade them.
Why O Why should anyone buy a business class flight to travel in Economy. Well thats one lesson we learned fly Economy and then transfer those points out to Hilton Honors whom really know how to respect people....

AMD K6 IIIplus 450MHz Suitable For Super Socket 7
Review of AMD K6 III by
Union
Advantages: Saves Money on Upgrading a Super Socket 7 Motherboard
Disadvantages: Motherboard needs to support a Core voltage of 2.0, also requires the latest BIOS upgrade for your motherboard
...Although the AMD K6 III+ 450MHz was designed for laptop use they can be used in Super Socket 7 motherboards as many of the major board makers have now released BIOS upgrades to support the CPU. The AMD K6 III+ 450MHz is available on auction sites such as eBay and QXL, but not in the shops as they are only released by AMD as OEM for the major laptop makers. The CPU is made using the 0.18 Micron process which is the same as the Duron range, the old K6 III series which is no longer available was made using the 0.25 Micron process. So as look as your board supports a Core voltage of 2.0, Multiplier of 4.5, FSB of 100MHz. It is also possible to overclock these processors to 600Mhz because of the 0.18 Micron process and the 2.0v Core voltage with the use of a good fan and heartsink. All this will help the owners of Super Socket 7 motherboard...

Amazing!
Review of Innocent Eyes - Delta Goodrem by
LisaUK11
Advantages: Heartfelt and calming.
Disadvantages: None
...Delta Goodrem's Innocent Eyes album is fantastic. This is her first album and she released this in 2003. This album is full of ballads and is fantastic for the soppy hearted!!
"Doing everything that I believe in"
Born To Try is Delta's debut single and is written by Delta. This song is an upbeat ballad and is about the trials in life - they get you down and they also lift you up. Delta will not give in to the trials that get her down. Delta Goodrem said she wasn't born to win but she wasn't born to lose either and will give life her best shot! She proved that on July 8th 2003 when she found out she had Hodgekins Disease (Cancer) but she made her comeback in 2004!! 8/10
"I got lost in fantasies"
Innocent Eyes is written by Delta and Vince Pizzinga. This track is a upbeat ballad and is about her childhood. Showing parents she could...

The second coming
Review of Delta Force 2 (PC) by
Vega
Advantages: Bigger than Delta Force 1
Disadvantages: Needs a bigger processor
...Let me start by telling you that this review will basically feature on the improvements between Delta Force 1 and Delta Force 2. If you have never played Delta Force 1 or do not know anything about it then I suggest you read my review on it entitled "Its a Blast". Right now that is out of the way we can begin. Delta Force 2 is supposed to be bigger and better than the original, and in many ways it is. You have a choice of more primary weapons than the original (7 now i think), more secondary weapons, and more auxillary items. These features all build on what was already a stunningly wonderful multiplayer game. Also improved in Delta Force 2 is the single player mode. There are more missions and they vary a lot more thatn the first. There is also the inclusion of a mission editor that allows you to devise your own single and multi...

Great Airline
Review of Delta Air Lines - DAL by
markb
Advantages: Usually ontime, friendly service
Disadvantages: Not always the cheapest!
...I travel to and around the US a great deal and I've yet to find an airline to give such good service as Delta. Sure, sometimes they screw up real bad, and sometimes they seem unwilling to act with good customer service, but in comparison it is much less often than most other airlines. Punctuality also seems to be better than most others and the compensatory offers for voluntary bumping are always more generous than those of their rivals.
I've travelled with a number of airlines during the past 4 - 5 years but Delta always comes out on top for me!...

The best way to fly....
Review of Delta Air Lines - DAL by
andycharger
Advantages: Best Airline
Disadvantages: None
...I was so impressed with Delta Airlines when I flew with them. We took a connecting flight between Orlando and Atlanta and Atlanta to Gatwick So I got to sample both internal and international flights on the same day. One of the impressive things about the flight was the food. We were only on Delta because our Airline had gone bust!!! With the meal we had REAL cutlery! Not the usual Plastic stuff and the dodgy plastic trays but real food and real cutlery!!! It was a nice change and was more like eating in the first class. The cabin crew were profesiional and freindly and the plane was spacious and comfortable....
