Not worth the cost.
Bought 2 shirts $29.99 did not really think this through for the shipping charges $20 per shirt, 2 shirts came in one box(size of a medium pizza box).The company did offer to take the shipment back but, it was too late, I opened the shirts. After 2 washes, they are not holding up too well, so overall. I would not endorse this company or product.Amazon though, did acknowledge my issue with this shipping transaction as best they could. I hope they will improve for the next buyer.

Electric Piano
Item is of great quality however it did come damaged to my nieces home. The bottom of the piano had a 1 - 2" crack next to the pedals. Perhaps a delivery problem with UPS. Did not report to UPS because past experience with them has not been satisfactory as far as getting a damage settled!!!! UPS is very poor to do business with.........would much rather items came thro Fed Ex.

Bad Track Pad Reaction
This keyboard has really bad tracking and mouse button clicking when working in Photoshop. Forget resizing palettes it won't even work right. With all that said it does have a decent keyboard but so does my $30 logitech. I bought this particular keyboard for the track-pad and for the price of of the keyboard the track pad isn't worth it.

Some interesting autobiographical work
I haven't read Kirwan's book so I can't review this as a soundtrack, but there are number of good cuts here."The History of Ireland Part I" is as succinct an effort to make sense of Ireland's troubled past as anything I've read or heard."The Bells of Hell" about Malachy McCourt's old watering hole is a fun journey into the past and a scene that makes me wish I was there."Uncle Jim" and his peace mission to the North is a classic. It's funny and poignant at the same time. A tough accomplishment.These are the ones stand out for me, but the rest has value as well. Black 47 is a band that challenges and entertains. Not many can make that claim.

Revisionist History
I loved reading McCullough's biography of John Adams. The movie on this DVD demonstrates that the HBO Producers and Director did not really read the book. They practiced eisogesis rather than exegesis. The redeeming feature of the movie was the excellent use of special effects to create 18th Century America.

Hugely disappointing
Don't bother. I don't know what the producers were thinking about, but this will put you to sleep. If you think you're going to get a "sensational" encapsulized look at '76, forget it. It wanders, wastes time, misses important moments. A bad, bad, bad effort. I rated this at one star only because you don't get the option here to give anything a zero.

A pretty good system
The Gamecube was meant for games, not music or DVDs. It focused on games and ONLY on games. This is probably why Gamecube costs less than PS2 or Xbox. People these days are into music and movies. Knowing this, Sony and Microsoft put DVD players and music players in their systems. The games for the Gamecube can be entertaining for a while, but not that long. The games are meant for kids, not adults. Sometimes, adults out there, when you need to take a break from the real world, this sytem will bring you out of it. When comparing the graphics of the next-gen systems, Gamecube comes second, trailing Xbox, but leading PS2. You have to be patient with Gamecube though, for it takes a long time coming out with games. PS2 and Xbox are just rollin' out with games by the month. The graphics are sleek, run-time is good, and the control has a nice layout(it can take a few days to get used to). Overall, this is a pretty good system. Follow my advice (I own the system).

The sax stand works
I originally bought this stand for my tenor sax but now use it with an alto as well and I would say it works great for both. It is easy to adjust the stand between the tenor and alto positions and it grips the sax pretty well after just setting it down. It also folds up pretty well and is pretty dang tough. I did drop it once and it bent one of the parts which would not allow it to lock into place so I got something and bent it right back and is still just as firm and functional. I would recommend if you need a sax stand that is going to hold your sax and not fall over.

A little known dramatic coloratura masterpiece
A wonderful, little known opera of 1825, written in Rossinian style. There is great, and well sung, dramatic coloratura, lively cabalettas, and a lot of action. I wish I could see the opera staged, with the eruption of the volcano!

Good only for a slow day
I found this yoga workout to be great option for a day I'm not motivated for a tough workout. But, I definitely do not think it's "fat burning" as touted. It did work some muscles I didn't know I had, but I think that there are much better options in Karen Voight's collection.

Not what I was looking for
I didn't get a great deal out of this DVD. There are a lot of subtitles and, at least on my TV, they were very hard to read. If your looking for a "how to" this isn't it, in my opinion. This is more of a "I believed and it worked for me."

Great interpretation
I really like this recording. I am not an expert in Early Music, but I do remember being introduced to it in an old recording of Perotin. The music sounded so unusual, mystical and masculine that I just loved it. Upon looking at newer recordings they just didn't seem to have that sense of masculine mysticism. The interpretation style is usually very fluid and slow and seems to not accent what I think early polyphony is built upon---parallel lines of fourths or fifths which give me a sensation of otherworldliness. This recording, however, has a sense of sacred power and mysticism that is created by those fifths, rich masculine voices and a tempo that is not too slow. The voices are great and the higher voice is taken up not by a woman, but by Gerard Lesne, a fabulous countertenor with a very rich voice, not thin and weak at all. I can really see how knights, princes and monks would listen to this. If they sang this at church I would probably go everyday.

Endurox R4
I got this in order to find a less expensive substitute for the p90x recovery drink. While i can't compare anything other than price, the taste is good, it mixes well, and tastes like lime sherbet.Cost wise, this is an excellent value. GNC wanted about the same price for the 1# canister and didn't have the lemon-lime flavor.

Pretty dull
With the exception of track 7, this isn't a very good offering. Noisecore/metalcore/whatever you want to call it was at one time a very interesting genre full of potential. But inevitably it became oversaturated with carbon copy bands, same as any other music style. It's just not fun anymore.Check out Botch instead.

Good album, so-so remastering - don't ditch your old CD yet!
When it comes to the perceived or actual value of a remastered album, most of the time I preach, rant and rave about the miracle of modern record mastering. This is one of those times when I will tell you that there is very little noticeable difference between the 1990 pressing and the 2008 remastered Rhino version, aside from the few bonus tracks. I've played both CD on my Mac with harman/kardon speakers (with bass), as well as on my expensive Onkyo CD player, Amp and Polk tower speakers. So if you're looking for some revealing details in the remastered version as opposed to the original late 80's or early 1990's pressing, you're in for a disappointment. ... 4 stars for the music 3 for the sound quality.

Don't bother
Interestingly enough, this product was offered on the HP site when I ordered my new DV9000 laptop. As previous reviews have stated, it is indeed made of low grade plastic. I find it puzzling that HP would recommend this item, considering the fans line up in no way whatsoever with the laptop's cooling fans. The USB cord is too long and comes with an ON/OFF slide switch (which failed quickly). I cut the switch and wired it directly; it worked OK for a while. Now the USB plug on the chill pad itself has to be in just the right position to power the fans. A waste of money; don't bother.

Not as Good as I Remember
I had not seen these on TV for decades. I remember them as being the scariest movies while growing up. I was disappointed in the movies. They were not scary and were slow moving. I did like seeing the "head" Martian in the glass globe again in "Invaders" and the Crawling Eyes being burned.I have seen "Them" over the years and that still holds up. I also like "Forbidden Planet," even with the low tech technology.I guess I should have rented "The Crawling Eye" and "Invaders from Mars" before/instead of buying.

Activision is writing the good reviews!
Don't be fooled by the long detailed and positive reviews. Donna Johnston from NY is listed in the credits of all the Cabela titles as the QA Lead. Why is she giving her review on the games she worked on which you see on every Cabela game? It looks like Activision is paying their employees to write reviews for them. This game has poor graphics and is tedious and boring. There are much better hunting games out there. Don't waste your money on their falsely advertized garbage.

Lacking
Aside from the fact that as soon as the warranty expired the CD player started jamming often, I was disappointed with it from the beginning. Although one can categorize each CD by genre one can't have the player play a random selection of a particular genre which makes the random function rather useless it's difficult to have a dinner party and have the CD player skip from Miles davis to Red Hot Chilli Peppers to Chopin. These days there are players with even larger capacities. One can do better...

i bought the sx700r in july of 05 to use between two cars in malls and theme parks in florida for my recent holidays. the range of the product is 12 miles and this is the reason i ordered this motorola radio as it is the longest range advertised on all their 2 ways. in real terms the 12 miles is really only 3/4 of a mile. yes not even 1 mile. disappointed i contacted motorola on their american helpline and they said it is because electrial/land features and only 12 miles point to point on flat land will achieve 12 miles i would not recommend this product if over 3/4 of a mile is what u want brian

Midland is portable
Portable so very useful on camping trips. Had to contact company but battery apparently lasts for about 3-4 days. Speaker is of marginal quality so FM stations do not sound very good. OK for AM. Weather reports often sound mechanized. The entire service could use some help to keep the reports from being so monotonous and monotone.

This Seat IS NOT COMPATIBLE with the Body Rider Fan Bike.
Based on the recommendation of Amazon, I bought this seat to "upgrade" the basic seat of the Body Rider Fan Bike - stationary exercise bike. This seat is likely great for a traditional bike but it simply is not compatible with this exercise bike. I find it completely irresponsible of Amazon to make a recommendation that consumers buy them together.

Kaiser Square Quiche Pan (Antihaft) is Magnificent!
This is the biggest Quiche pan that I've ever seen. If you want to serve a lot of Quiche Lorraine to party guests or your family, this is the pan for you. A recipe for Quiche Lorraine comes with it. Any crust-enclosed, semi-liquid, egg-cheese filled pie made with this pan will flare from 9.75"-10" square on its deeply fluted bottom crust to 12" square on the outer edges of its smooth-edged top crust. It is so big that you could use it to make a Bavarian- or Austrian-style cheesecake, with a shortbread crust and a baked Quark cheese filling, that would stun 9-16 cheesecake lovers. Beware though. You'll need a 14" square plate to present your gorgeous fluted pastries in the style that they deserve! Although you can present and serve food from this pan, magnificently, I wouldn't abuse it with metal tools. Use non-damaging nylon spatulas, instead. Kaiser recommends a baking temp. of 320 F. (160 C.) and hand washing of this pan with mild soap and water.

Good looking glasses, poor quality lenses.
It seems that the lenses are made of cheap plastic ( polycarbonate ) which get scratched no matter how careful I was. Is it really Ray Ban quality ?Never again...... The One star is there because I could not remove it....I will add in honesty that I bought the glasses because i really enjoyed the look. Having a wide face( and maybe a big mouth ) the 67mm lens is a decisive feature.In retrospective I feel frustrated by the ease with which the lens got scratched... So good looks, poor quality.

Not for Lefties
I'm sure this mouse would be great if you are right-handed, but not for lefties. For one, the mouse does not support left-handed capabilities. You can't even swap the click buttons. Left-handed people should stay away from this mouse. Is it too much to ask for mice that support left-handers and have some extra buttons like the right-handers have?

Classic episodes
I think everything has been said already about how great these early Simpsons shows are. My tip for finding out the list of episodes on the set is to go to the wikipedia page "The Simpsons (season 2)" (or season 3, whatever), and scroll down to the list of episodes, with descriptions. I do think it would be nice if you could find this info on Amazon (just like the track list for a CD) but this is one alternative.Do watch this DVD, though, as it is excellent. "Bart's Dog Gets An F" reminds me of my dog. :D

I read this book when I was a new Christian. I found it was both educational and spiritually fulfilling. I recommend this book for all Christians - new, mature and those who have fallen away from their walk with Jesus.

Most experienced Sysadmins recommand the use of the TC shell for interactive use and the Korn shell for writing scripts. Fine. Except that this book does not provide a good introduction to writing scripts. Even the experienced script writer will be at a loss in the details the authors go.The examples are useless: they never say what they are supposed to do and they never tell you the results.And main criticism: I have yet to find a system where the _new_ kornshell (which came out in 93) is installed...

Eerie and Satisfying
Just as the movie leaves you wanting to talk to someone else about their interpretation, the music too leaves much up to you. Calming and discomforting at the same time this soundtrack is the perfect mix to relax to on one of those not so normal days. The melodies and rythms bring back many memories from the film, ideas which are perfectly represented in the music. I highly reccomend this if you enjoyed the movie and want to have one more thing to remember it by. It reminds me greatly of the Thomas Newman score that accompanied American Beauty.

Stunning - emotive, atmospheric, melancholic gem - one of 2007's best.
Stateless deserve to be much more well-known than they are. I discovered this album about 6 mths ago and fell in love with the first single - 'Bloodstream'. Comparisons to Keane, Coldplay, Elbow, even Muse, etc. will be inevitable, but I think Stateless deserve to be considered a little more on their own terms. Less commercial than these bands, but benefiting from 'pop-quality' production, the album borrows ideas from trip-hop, blends record-scratching with violins and overtly electronic pianos, and runs smooth - at times almost operatic - rising vocals over poetic lyrics. In short, its been a long time since I have found an album of this quality and originality. Why isn't this band on my radio??!!

To understand nutrition + processed/packaged food stuff
A must read for understanding processed food and packaged food in the supermarkets besides nutrition. Though written in 70's, the book is still relevant for the day. Highly motivating towards switching to healthy & wholesome food habits. Has a "Layman's Question & Answer" approach to the subject, yet covers the subject in depth, with clarity and humour - making the book easy to read and benefit from it.

clear up the CD clutter
I bought these to get rid of the CD case clutter in my home. I've already filled three, and they fit perfectly in their case/dustjacket when completely filled. I was very happy to dispose of the plastic CD cases in favor of a few albums that fit on the bookcase. The only reason they don't get five stars is that the liner notes do not fit in these albums well. I will have to purchase a separate container for those (as I am picky enough to want to keep them in the same order as the CDs are in the albums). But these albums are nice quality and don't look cheap. I will definitely purchase more.

Elliot's only solo so far.
Cars guitarist Elliot Easton released "Change No Change" #99 in 1985. I remember getting this on a cold snowy winter day the first day it came out in Salina, Kansas at the famous "House Of Sight And Sound". The music on this disc kind of resembles The Cars and adds some flavor from Jules Shear who he collaborated with on this album.It opens with "Tools Of Your Labor", a good song with an even catchier chorus. "(Wearing Down) Like A Wheel", #36 mainstream rock, his big hit here, great rocker with some good synths. "Change", is one funky little number, "(She Made It) New For Me", is as close to a Cars type song, "Help Me", kind of a 60's type pop-rocker, the hard rockin' of "The Hard Way" and my favorite song was "Shayla", who we named our first daughter after in 1990. Elliot has done a lot of stuff since, but were waiting for The Cars reunion in 2011.

Not worth the money
While this CD does have a number of songs sang by members (or possibly former members) of the listed bands, the renditions are awful (sounded like cover bands doing tribute versions).

Prefer seasons but....
I must admit that the ones listed are not the ones I would pick as favorites. That is why it has only 2 stars. The episode with Dan saving Christine's life and asking for a payback price would have made my favorites list. I still feel that this show is one of the funniest shows ever on television.I can see from most of the reviews that people would prefer season sets. I too would like season sets as I really like the show. However I will take what I can get. From what I have seen on web sites, the company was disappointed with sales of season 1. If this compilation doesn't sell well then there may never be any more seasons. So don't boycott this DVD use sales of it to tell the company that we like Night Court and want the rest of the season sets.

Shame on Lodge or Amazon?
I was so looking forward to receiving this 7 Qt. Dutch oven. What a disappointment. This is OBVIOUSLY a SECOND, not first quality. The bottom is not quite level, there's a pin hole size chip on the interior, the lid does not fit at all no matter which way it's turned. I'm not paying to ship it back for exchange because chances are I'd only be shipped another second. Instead, I will NOT BE ORDERING ANYTHING ELSE MARKED "LODGE ENAMEL" FROM AMAZON. Yes, the price was a good price. But obviously there is no quality control on this particular product since there's no possibility the lid on this pot could have passed. If Amazon is selling seconds or thirds, THEY SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO STATE THAT A PRODUCT IS A SECOND OR THIRD & let the customer decide if they want to take a chance. IF LODGE IS KNOWINGLY SELLING THEIR SECONDS TO RETAILERS AS FIRST QUALITY, SHAME ON LODGE NOT ONCE, BUT TWICE.

Not a good product
I own the SkyFi, SkyFi2 and the SkyFi3... the first two where great, the SkyFI3 is an unreliable piece of junk.The features are great, such as the backlight auto turn off, the recording time, the ablilty to record songs for later.... BUT, since I have owned it (about 1 1/2 years), I have had it lock up countless times. Each time you have to reset it which will cause you to have to reconfigure it. What is worse is if you have any songs saved and you have to reset it, well, kiss those goodbye. They will show up still, but they won't play.In addition to the above, it will sometimes just erase all of your pre-sets. What is really bad, is when the pre-sets get erased, then the unit will not save new ones you try to set. You can reset the unit, and it will still do the same thing. What is really strange, is after a while, it will save the presets... but good luck guessing when that will happen.Do yourself a favor; avoid the SkyFi3, get the SkyFi2 or look for another receiver.

as a profressional, I do think this is a great book for creative ideas. Not right if you want basic info on colors for skintones, though. Beautiful pictures.

this is the worst
I know books, and i also know good books. Therefor, i can honestly say this is the worst book i have ever read. Just look at the title and understand that whoever wrote this is a very angry person who has alot of hatred toward the world. Dont worry about what this author has to say, she is no threat to me, you or your children.

Good (but could be better)
A good read for women and men (perhaps especially men). It shows that being a woman does not mean you're a 2nd class citizen in the body of Christ. My only gripe is that the book isn't in-depth enough. I would have liked to see J.T. Bristow write about the entire New Testament and not just Paul's writings.

Good film, but,,,
Quinn is a truly great actor. There was no way he was going to put in a substandard performance. The directing, pace, script, etc.; all first rate. And there were moments that were truly inspiring.The only problem was the end. There is no way that a political power structure would willingly abandon its power for the sake of charity. It would never happen. The idea of the pope enacting and embodying Christian charity at the expense of the Church's existence is too idealistic to be believable.

Fantastic
Great blend of top-notch musicians (Robben Ford, Jim Keltner), Jim's own fine grand piano playing, some really great tunes, and some whacky, but still mighty fine tunes make for a great cocktail here. The style is relaxed soul blues, a little bit of stride piano even. It definitely stands out, and the production, especially of the grand, is simply SUPERB! This CD helped sell me my stereo, and afterwards I got the salesperson to order me a copy (not so easy to find in Denmark). I highly recommend it!

Annoying Cabbie
"Greatest Video Hits" is cursed by a terribly annoying "framing device" wherein a nondescript New York cabbie drives around New York City and comes across various Blondie videos playing on bar TVs, TV inside limos etc. What's worse, this weak attempt to "tie together" the videos ends up cutting off 30 second chunks out of the beginning of several of the videos. Today, however there is a remedy, albeit an imperfect one. The CD of "Blondie Greatest Hits: Sound & Vision" includes a DVD which contains all but two of the videos on the "Greatest Video Hits." The two songs omitted are "X Offender" and "(I'm Always Touched by your) Presence, Dear." which are early gems off their first and second albums, respectively. "Sound & Vision" compensates by including the clever video for the equally clever "Rapture Riders--Blondie vs. the Doors."I give two stars, because this DVD is the only way to get the videos for "X Offender" and "Presence, Dear," otherwise, get "Sound & Vision"

not recommended
After researching for months to find a way to take notes easily and quickly and still be able to read them afterwards, I tried EasyScript.In fact, it IS easy to learn to WRITE. However, it does take discipline and practice to be able to read your notes after a while. There is just too much ambiguity in the abbreviations and compound words. So, while you can be fast in writing, reading of your own notes can be a challenge.I gave up after a few weeks of trying.

Hacker Book? This a Joke?
I took a look at this book because of it's cool cover.Is this suppose to be a real book, or an ONION parody?The author is a "Contract Hacker"? For who, his dodge-ballbuddies?First of all, if this truly was a book about hacking,it wouldn't have all that L337-lame lingo all over it.This kid has basic computer skills, at best, and any"hacking" he is doing, is limited to wearing sunglassesand his 2600 shirt. IOW, a poser.There are NO hacking techniques in the book AT ALL. Heshows a couple of vbs samples that echo Matrix movielines (now that's l337!), send an email (crafty!), andother 6th-grader stunts.This book is no more a hacker manual, than if the kidplayed with model rockets and wrote a book on how to flythe space shuttle. Funny, yes, substance, no.Shame on SAMS for letting this get on shelves!

About Worthless
This product is worthless. As everyone said, the smaller "stuff" just falls through. The scoop is fine for picking up pieces of food scattered around, but worthless for droppings. Think I'll try the fishnet that was suggested by another reviewer. In short, don't waste your money unless you have big crabs!

The best Python film never made.
This is the best Monty Python film that they never actually made. It's funny from beginning to end, and the songs are easy to learn and, therefore, easy to impress your friends with tales of sacred sperm and other such delights. If you have ever laughed at Python humour then you should buy this dvd. . . it will not leave your player (except when it needs the toilet).

An adventure for the imagination!
I found this book at the library and likes the images. I did originally think the story was a bit complex for my 2 1/2 year old but now she wants me to read it over and over! I like the southern accent that's written into the story. And I definite DO NOT need to change the words to make it understandable!!! We will need to buy our own copy so we can read it when even we want!

DON'T BUY THIS VERSION
Don't make the mistake i did by buying this copy of this classic ITALIAN movie.It's a complete disaster with faded colors and grainy images.I can't beleive they put this one on the market.You'll get to see the three sketches all right, but the transfer is simply amateurish and insulting.No subtitles,not even the original ITALIAN track,no gallery of photos etc.This is the worst dvd i ever bought.Luckily for others,a new version was released in 2005 which has the proper treatment.I just hope that VISCONTI's last movie THE INNOCENT won't fall in this category when they released it someday.Let us pray for the preservation of LAURA ANTONELLI's beauty.

Pretty Good. A bit bulky
Hello,I have Eytimotic's which are very nice. However, I thought one of the earphone was broken and hence decided to purchase new ones. I finally settled on the Super.fi 5 EB.I can't deny that they are very nice. The enhanced basses are a change from the Eytimotic's which were lacking basses almost totally.What I regret from the Super.fi are:* they are quite bulky in comparison to Eytimotics* after a while it hurts a bit the hears. But I guess, it will improve with time + I'll find the appropriate way of wearing them.* although the transport case is made of aluminum and robust, it is bulky and its use could be improved. A bit like the Shure'sNevertheless, the Super.fi definitely deserve a four stars review.

Indispensible Tool for CAD
I've been using a spaceball for over 10 years. This is a big improvement over previous models and I'm happy the price has finally come down. I've so thoroughly integrated this into my workflow than I am handicapped without it.

Even completionists should avoid this one
Every series has its bad moments, but if you're enough of a fan, you can usually forgive and maybe even enjoy the crappy bits, because you love the show warts and all. Battlestar Galactica, especially Season 4, had more than its share of narrative cul-de-sacs, filler episodes, and infodumps, but it was what it was, and it was all part of the Battlestar package. The Plan, on the other hand, is so bad that it actually ruins the rest of the series. The Season 4 finale, which was criticized for being obsessively conclusive (everything explained and happy endings all round!), has nothing on the shoddily-written fan fiction that is The Plan, which manages to explain away any mystery and magic that the series still had.Don't watch it, because once watched it can never be unwatched.

Fanny Pack
Product arrived on time and in good condition. Quality of leather is quite good. The only thing that keeps me from rating 5 stars is the size. The 14 inch length is measured from the ends of the "ears". While they do have zipper pockets in them, they are quite small and shallow. The main body of the pack is only 8 inches from end to end. All in all my wife still likes it and will keep it.

Nothing better or more timely on this region!
This compendium of valuable information is crucial to all research in this region - from biogeography to environmental studies to ecology to ethnic studies. There is no other book in which all of this information is so easily accessible. The thoughtfulness and organization of the author is visible on every page. I recommend this book for any type of audience interested in this area.

Beautiful window covering for privacy
This window covering is very beautiful. I put it on a door panel for privacy - it's not as opague as I thought, but I would still recommend it for privacy. As always, Amazon free shipping is excellent.

Overall a disappointing book
Before I read this book I was expecting a dirty, pornographic story that might have lead to something. In the end it didn't really lead anywhere but to my opinion that the author is not really a very good one. If your into porn then there is something much better out there than this. This book is for someone who is missing the "good old times" when women stayed at home, pleased their husbands whenever and however he wanted. The main characters are boring and in the end you cannot feel any sympathy for them. Save your time and money and read something, almost anything else.

I love Dio, but I don't love this.
This DVD starts off good enough, with a great version of King of Rock and Roll, but then it just gets too synthesizer heavy. The rare A Special from the Spetrum video blows this away in terms of heaviness and song selection. Rainbow in the Dark is good as always but where is We Rock and The Mob Rules? Dio's 2003 Evil or Divine DVD is way better than this. The biggest reason to get this would be for the stage show which Dio won an award for. Most bands don't have cool stage shows like this any more. Why wasn't the concert footage of Hungry for Heaven shown rather than the song just being played during the end credits? Look for the import We Rock DVD which includes half of the Special from the Spectrum show and part of another concert from 1983, both with Vivian Campbell on guitar.

Rasfox Carry Case for Portable DVD Player
This carrying case is a good sturdy case and has all the features you want for your portable DVD player. It keeps it safely tucked away or fastens to the seats of your vehicle for viewing. All the straps needed are included. The extra storage pocket is great for holding cords, headphones, DVD's, etc. Be sure to measure your portable DVD player before buying. Mine fit the measurements listed on the ad page but it is a very tight fit, and keep in mind how the DVD player will sit inside the case, if yours has buttons around the sides of it then you may want more room around the player to get to those, add these extras into the size of the player when measuring. All in all it is a great deal and well worth the price.

the best way to get started!
This book is really good for a begginer just getting into the world of game programming. It describes every aspect of game programming, and does a great job of making DirectX easy and entertaining. It even comes with 2 simple sample games and a game engine to make your first games easy. It also goes into a lot of detail about how DirectX and Windows works. But beware! the parts on DirectX can be very confusing if you skim. I also would have liked it if the author gave more code samples in the book itself so you can see how it all works. Nevertheless, if you want an introduction to the world of DirectX with C++, buy it. Oh, and get Visual C++ because it took me hours to get the game engine to work on my Metrowerks Codewarrior. That's what real game programmers use anyway. Enjoy!
