Pros: Free Internet Provider, good connection speeds Cons: Large Ad Banner,large download, huge waste of time
MyNewsnet.com IS new news in the free internet industry. Some of the bigger names in free internet service are now gone, or soon will be, and the fact that yet another one is jumping into the pit, and daring to take such a big chance, is both unusual,...

Pros: Good idea Cons: Bad execution, SCAM
About this time last year, a friend of mine, not the type to send chain letters and/or pornographic Santa cartoons, forwarded me an e-mail that I actually read (instead of deleting after instantaneously noticing "(fwd)" in the subject...

Pros: you get partial credit if you discover aliens, makes people think you are running an FBI program on your computer Cons: some times you have to reboot so SETI can connect to the internet
I was visiting my friends apartment one day when I happened to glance at his computer screen. All these blue, green, red, and purple blocks were filling his screen. It looked as if he was running some kind of secret government program that diffuses...

Pros: Faster downloads no second phone line needed Cons: Higher price than the unlimited service of a modem

Pros: Best simple unzip utility -- zips as well. Cons: I didn't find it sooner.
FreeZip version 1.4.8 is the best unzipping utility I've ever had. Say you download a file to your desktop and it has a zip extension. With FreeZip installed you simply click the new zipfile and the little program produces, instantaneously, the needed...

Pros: Earn money! Cons: Slows your computer
I have a mixed review about AllAdvantage.com, the site that pays you to watch ads while you surf the internet. The concept of getting paid to surf is wonderful and I personally don't mind having ads across the bottom of my screen. In fact, the viewbar...

Pros: AMAZING power, customization, greatly improved interface Cons: Still a steep learning curve --- but well worth it!
Sorry, can't help you with that one --- but Finale 2001 will provide everything but the inspiration!

If there is a task related to music notation that this program does not handle, I have yet to find it. Upon starting up...

Pros: You make money for nothing! Cons: Needs more hours a month
AllAdvantage is one of the best sites I have ever seen. Why you ask? Because you can make money from them. All you have to do is sign up, download their viewbar and you can start making money as soon as you want.
Their viewbar consists of ads that...

Pros: ease of use and MONEY!!! Cons: rates are just okay (.50 cents an hour) but probably increase soon enough
When I first learned about these new programs that pay you to surf I was like "Quick, where do I sign up?" I signed up to over ten of these programs with big Dollar signs flashing before my eyes, hoping to make some money. When It came to...

Pros: Rock solid stability, Easy installation via cd-rom or over the internet from a LAN Cons: only one: you need to know unix (a real OS)....
FreeBSD is a berkeley unix based operating system based on the BSDi 4.4 lite operating system. It has been developed following a model similar to linux, in that a core group of programers have worked and developed it into what it is today.

Pros: High Speed Cons: Horrible Service
I wish I could tell you that my experience with cable internet has been a flawless one, but then the harsh realm of reality would soon set in. It all started two weeks ago when I received a call from the local cable company informing that cable...

Pros: No monthly fee Cons: Advertising; unreliable, slow service; skimpy tech-support
You may be thinking that it's great to pay absolutely nothing for internet access, considering that internet access runs for about 20 dollars a month for a 56k dial-up connection. But as they always say, there's no such thing as a free lunch. Free...

Pros: Very stable and efficient Cons: Only one I can think of is it's not tailored to the desktop/workstation user, but that's not necessarily a con because the end result is a very stable server platform and that was their goal
Anyone who has ever used FreeBSD as a server in a production environment knows how wonderful this OS really is. I've used FreeBSD exclusively for over 3 years on several fairly busy production servers for my ISP and it's never let me down! It's...
