bcrook says "Amazing Company!!!" about AMICA

bcrook — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 00:29:22 GMT

We had never heard of Amica back in 2002 when we were researching new companies and I decided to give them a chance because they gave me the best rate quote on auto insurance. Fast forward to 2008, we have 3 autos and home owners insurance with them and we have no desire to change companies! They have been fabulous. Phone support is so pleasant. Recently my husband was in an accident, which was the other drivers fault. Amica kept checking in on us wanting to know how they could help us with filing claims against the other insurance company. They have also proactively called us to let us know that we were qualified for discounts. AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE! ...

bcrook says "Once you go Mac, you'll never go back" about Apple MacBook Pro

I love my MacBook Pro!! Anything Apple in the past few years will beat all others. I'm currently running Windows via Parallels for the few times that I need to access Windows for training purposes. Otherwise, 90% of what I can do on the PC I can do on my Mac. And the speed is just blazing!...

bcrook says "great mileage for an SUV, great price, great quality - Love it!" about Honda CR-V - 2007

I was looking to purchase a new car, in the $20k range, and preferrably a small SUV for commuting to weddings when the roads haven't been snow plowed yet (I'm a wedding photographer). Also wanted something for the future when I have children of my own, and cannot bend down to put a child into a car seat. I had many plans on purchasing the new Toyota RAV 4, but when it came down to the day of purchase, I went with the Honda CRV. Great choice! Both are excellent choices for small SUV, but when I included everything that I wanted (6 disc cd, moonroof, etc), the RAV4 ended up being $4k more than the mid-model CRV that included everything I wanted as standard. I love this car! Average 24/28 mpg.

bcrook says "Love the quality of images from this camera!!" about Fuji FinePix E550 Digital Camera

I'm a professional photographer and finally decided that I needed a small P&S camera to take on family days, events, etc to document family memories without lugging around all of my pro equipment. I spent 2 months of researching trying to find that perfect camera for me. Besides a couple of mechanical issues with this camera, it is definitely the camera for me! The quality of images when shot in RAW and High-Res is fantastic! The colors it produces are stunning. If there's a blue sky, you'll capture it. The 2 mechanical issues were corrected by Fuji. I lost this camera briefly while on vacation last year and for 2 weeks was terribly upset because this model was discontinued. But thankfully the camera was recovered and returned to us....
