speaklightly - (August 21, 2004) As a professional digital camera lecturer, I must admit that the Fuji E-550 was a very pleasant surprise for me. Priced at about $340, this digital camera produced digital photos that were much sharper, more detailed, and more excellent than I, frankly expected. I found the digital camera very easy to use right out of the box. While this digital camera does have a 12mp interpolated image size available, I found the 6mp native image size to have more contrast, detail and resolution. As you might expect in a consumer digital camera, the digital camera's flash is not very powerful. At 200 ISO it will produce excellent exposures out to 13 feet. By adding a supplementary slave flash such as

snufalufagus1 - (September 24, 2004) I spent a LOT of time investigating digital cameras online -one would think I was buying a car or something. Anyway I am a novice camera user and remain very impressed with this little guy. I would certainly recommend it. The movie mode is great for 'vignettes' or small movie snapshots. I also use the black and white a lot. I also didn't think the LCD would matter very much, but it does: I never use the viewfinder. I appreciate the large size of the LCD when passing the camera around to friends to view pictures and movies. Hint #1: Immediately jack up the megapixel resolution to 5 so that you can capture moments in the best resolution possible. Then, bypass Sony's ridiculous profit margin

joysmahal - (October 27, 2004) This camera is awesome. I upgraded from a Canon A70 and it was well worth the money. The Canon A95 uses 4 AA bateries, but it eats through normal alkalines way too fast. I highly recommend getting rechargeable NiMH AA batteries and a quick charger. The swivel screen is a major plus, it's 1.8" compared to 1.5" from the Canon A70. The screen is also higher resolution than the A70. I have used the camera for 3 weeks and printed about 50 pics so far. The pics look great and I even cropped to zoom in on some pictures and you couldn't see any sign of pixelation. I love the manual flexibility with this camera, plus the automatic modes make it easy for anyone to use. The camera

drissi - (11/25/2009) This is the second Vizio 32" 720P LCD in the past year. Vizio doesn't have the #1 or 2 name in LCD TVs, but they're giving them a run for their money. Picture is great. No dead pixels. 720P is just fine for LCDs under 50 inch LCDs (and less expensive). Set up is easy. Takes up little room when replacing old CRT tube TVs. The speakers could be better for movies, but not that big of a deal. Expansion for reciever, DVD player are easy to add.

ruthperryman - (11/25/2009) For the second year in a row, Intuit has given small businesses a compelling reason to upgrade to QuickBooks Pro 2010. I've been a Quickbooks consultant for 13 years and I don't normally push my clients to upgrade unless their version is 3+ years old. But last year, Intuit introduced a new Client Data Review feature for accountants which allows us to troubleshoot and correct client data entry errors with a few clicks of a button. Common data entry errors that used to take me hours to correct can now be done in minutes! If you've ever had to hire a QuickBooks ProAdvisor or CPA to cleanup your data file, this upgrade is going to more than pay for itself. And don't delay - client data review only works on the data entered in 2009 or 2010, so the sooner you upgrade the sooner you can start saving money!

rrsin - (11/25/2009) My first laser printer, but 4th HP printer. Everything worked great until about the 3rd or 4th upgrade of OS 10. First lost the ability to scan from the computer, but was able to initiate the scan from the printer itself. But, after a subsequent update, also lost that ability. Print quality is good, but can not print on thicker paper, as ink smears.
