wheels says "A good choice for auto but beware of prices on Homeowners" about State Farm

wheels — Wed, 07 May 2008 18:14:25 GMT

In 11 years I had 3 claims and they were all well handled. Since all 3 were the other drivers fault, my premiums were not increased. However, last month I cancelled all my coverage with State Farm because their homeowner prices had increased by over 400% in the past 5 and were twice what competitors charged for more coverage....

wheels says "Best in the Hilton Head area" about sieglers - bluffton, SC

A high quality restaurant that is off the beaten path in Bluffton, Sieglers provides an outstanding meal for a decent price. We have eaten there for 6 years and never been disappointed. Once you find it, you will be glad that you did. Instead of paying $50 for a $15 dinner like most places on Hilton Head, at Siglers you will pay $35 for a $50 dinner....

wheels says "A fun movie even with 200 small children in the theater" about Alvin and the Chipmunks

I enjoyed the first on nearly 50 years ago (I think, maybe my memory is playing tricks on me) and like this one even more.

The plot was simple enough to qualify as 'suitable for all ages' and the story was fun enough to satisfy all levels. I went at noon on Thursday hoping to avoid mobs of moms and little ones but failed miserably but the movie was fun enough to make it worth the audience.

wheels says "Best Ausio/Visual Laptop available - it's your own HDTV set" about Toshiba QOSMIO G35-AV650 Laptop

While the 650 has been upgraded to the 660 since I bought it, all I can talk about is the 650 and what I can say is that if you want a powerhouse machine, the QOSMIO is a very good choice.

If you are looking for a gaming machine, there are better choices.

If you are looking for an entertainment center, this is an outstanding choice. It has an integrated TV tuner, and can play HD-DVD disks. It also has an HDMI port so you can connect it directly via the best path with an HDTV.

I would call this a semi-portable home theater so if you spend a lot of time on the road, this machine lets you take your entertainment with you. The Harmon Kardon speakers are great for playing music and the HD-DVD player produces stunning movies.

wheels says "Best LCD available - supports HDMI 1.3 - 10 bit engine and scree" about Sony - BRAVIA KDL-52XBR4 Television

wheels — Wed, 21 Nov 2007 18:08:30 GMT

I spent many months evaluating different HDTV sets and ended up waiting for this model to be released. It has capabilities beyond what are being used today so that I am comfortable that, when the broadcast systems are upgraded to support true HDTV, this set will be capable of handling what will be transmitted.

If you have seen the Sony ad with Peyton Manning saying that Sony has HDNA, the set displayed is an XBR4.

You will pay more for this set, but it will be good for at least 15 years and the picture quality will justify the extra expense.
