 | "Striking classic watch design" | 2009-06-24 |
This is a striking classic watch design with a jet black dial and an elegant red second hand. I'd recommend (as others have) switching to a black band -- I chose a leather-backed carbon fiber design band (18 mm) that suits the watch. The date and day need to be set before noon or the date and day won't change properly; after all, the watch cannot tell whether it is morning or afternoon! And the date requires adjusting at the end of the month for 30-day months. The watch face is a tad larger than I thought it would be, but with a black band this is a handsome, rugged design that is not fussy, yet good-looking enough to wear with a jacket and tie in professional work settings. This watch is a good choice for those who don't want a lot of bells and whistles on their wrist. And it's a genuine bargain!

 | "Does not work reliably on XP PC" | 2007-12-03 |
I have wasted many hours fiddling with this card trying to get it to work on my XP PC. No matter how I configured it, it would intermittently freeze up my PC. Netgear's tech support tried to help but to no avail. Ultimately, I found that the MSI Turbo PCI card [ASIN:B000M5U9GI Super G 802.11BG Wireless Pci 64 Bit Xp Compliant Turbo Mode] works 100% reliably on my XP PC and, ironically, gets a much stronger signal from my Netgear router.
