Sony CFD-E100 Portable CD Radio Cassette Recorder Review

Sony CFD-E100 Portable CD Radio Cassette Recorder

I looked for a long time for a stereo, boombox or undercounter radio that would fit well in my kitchen. I wanted something that would fit in a small space but still sound good and be able to tune in my favorite radio station which is not always easy to get in. I read tons of reviews and was getting very discouraged. But the Sony CFD-E100 is perfect for my needs. It sounds great, looks good, takes up only a little space and does *not* use the cord as an antenna - which I have found to be an annoying "feature" of some radios. Also, the case is that same white appliance plastic that my coffee maker and toaster are made from, so it blends well in my kitchen and is easy to clean. I also think it's attractive with the blue accents. To save space, the CD player is vertical and in the front, while the cassette player is in the back. So you can't see the cassette player from the front, which confused my husband for a minute. But there's no reason that one way or the other has to be the "front" so you can just turn it around if you want to use the cassette player and need to see it. It also comes with a remote, which I have not had the need to use.
Pros:
* small footprint
* digital tuner that is fairly strong
* CD player
* cassette player-recorder
* pull-out antenna (not one of those "antenna in cord" things)
* easy to clean
* decent speakers

Cons
* a little hard to figure out how to set the radio pre-sets
* price - I paid $70 - not outrageous but not inexpensive

HP Pavilion dv5-2070us 14.5-Inch Laptop Review

I own a powerful gaming desktop PC, and my previous laptop was just a mid-okay 2GB ram/AMD 2.0GHz with less that 250MB of graphic memory on it. So I only used it for school work and that was pretty much it. Now with this HP pavilion dv5, I find myself completely ignoring my gaming desktop. Because this laptop can play most of the PC games that I play (Just finished playing call of duty 4 Modern warfare). It has 500GB space on it and comes with a HMDI port, so that means I connect it to my sumsung HD 1080p screen and everything looks pandora. Also has a very good webcam with a lot of options. It is simple light weight machine with a slick design. It comes with the super quick HP start up, so no need to start up win 7 all the time, especially if you just wanna go online.
Cons: The mouse pad is annoying, just grrrrrrrrrrruugghh!
The inbuilt speakers are so poor. But works great (dolby advance audio) if you connect them to good PC speakers.

I like it ...
