Rating:  - * Buyer beware ... Well I was one of the ones who was duped. We have two computers and purchased this for the computer with Windows ME operating system. Unfortunately the only system on which it works is XP. I then moved it to my other computer with XP where it functions, barely. Most of the time it is out of ink and when it is out of ink it won't work, even if the cartridge is still 3/4's full. I have been going around with Epson and finally today asked to return it. They do not accept returns for refunds, only exchanges under warranty. I tried returning it to the store where I purchased it and they will not take it back as it has been more than 14 days, I must go through Epson. Throwing away 3/4's full cartridges is a serious waste of resources in a time when we should be trying to conserve them. My recommendation---don't purchase it. Epson has had class action suits against them for this very thing and have lost. It is just an example of a company that hasn't learned from past mistakes. Rating: - * What A Piece Of Junk ... I would not wish this sorry printer on my worst enemy. It drinks ink like a camel gulps water, has poor print quality, takes forever to "wake up" and do anything. Then, when it prints or copies, it does it poorly. Stay away from this turkey. Rating: - * I felt cheated by Epson ... As other reviewers have shown (an I sadly learned it too late, only after purchasing it) Epson introduced on purpose a system to obligate the customer to waste his/her money in color ink EVEN IF THE USER NEVER PRINTS ANYTHING IN COLOR. It does not let you to leave as a default the "print as black ink only" setting, it does not print anything (even B&W pages) if you don't have all the color ink cartridges filled, etc. That was dishonest and mean from Epson. I will never ever buy anything else from this company. Rating: - * Epson makes a terrible product, baits you with a cheap printer... ... ...And makes you spend 3 times that on ink cartridges within the first year of ownership. I bought this printer super cheap as part of a promotion and if I go even a couple of days without using it, I need to "check nozzles" (which uses up ink) and then "clean nozzles" which uses even MORE ink. It refuses to even let you try to print a page if it determines the ink is low but there is always ink left in the cartridges when I remove them. What a waste! And don't even THINK of trying to use a generic ink. After speaking with a customer service rep who barely understood me, Epson promised to deliver 4 brand new cartridges to me and if I still had problems I should call them back. We'll see. Wish I had seen this before I bought the piece of garbage: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epson_ink_cartridge_controversy Rating: - * Worst printer I've ever used ... I've trusted Epson due to other types of products of theirs that I have used, but this printer is the worst printer I've ever used. The software that comes with it is clunky and limited, although it scans decent enough. As for printing, yes you can choose "black ink only" BUT (and it says this in the manual and on the product's FAQ) it STILL uses small amounts of color ink when using black only! So if all you use this printer for is printing text documents, you STILL need to buy color ink AND you will run out! Even worse, when you run out you CANNOT print. At all. So you can replace black ink all you want, and use it up, but no matter what you have to keep the color ink in stock. It runs out extremely fast too. Don't get fooled by the cheap price or the cheap price of the ink... you will end up spending more on ink just because of how often you'll have to buy it. Stay away. |
Where the NBA Dynasty series (the other initial entry is the slightly meatier Los Angeles Lakers: The Complete History) outdoes Ultimate Jordan is in the six playoff games--one for each year--as they were originally broadcast, minus halftime and commercials. Having the nearly complete game (usually running 90-100 minutes, from the TV introductions to post-game interviews) means you can skip straight to John Paxson's clutch basket or what was expected to be the final shot of Jordan's career. Or you can savor each game in its entirety, all the better to appreciate the artistry of Jordan in his three-pointer barrage against Portland or his "flu game" against Utah. You can see other great players too, of course, including Jordan's teammates--Scottie Pippen, Horace Grant, Dennis Rodman--and those opponents unfortunate enough to face the Bulls--Clyde Drexler, Charles Barkley, John Stockton, Karl Malone, and others. Because these are all NBA Finals games, you won't see Jordan's shot over Craig Ehlo or his 63-point coming-out party against Boston, but the 1990s Chicago Bulls were a team for the ages, and merely having their games--some of them all-time classics--available for home viewing is a major milestone in archived sports. --David Horiuchi
While last-minute heroics tend to be the standard by which we define excellence, there are many other moments that have left an indelible impression, many of them highlighted here. The video clips fall into 10 categories: Dunks, Alley-oops, Assists, Steals, Blocks, Teamwork, the Clutch Shot, Moves, Hustle, and Buzzer-Beaters. At the beginning of each section is a brief introduction. Before showing the top 10 dunks of all time, for example, we learn about the evolution of the dunk--from the first slam to the man who could fly, Michael Jordan--and we hear background commentary from NBA legends such as Magic Johnson, Charles Barkley, Dr. J, and Bill Russell. This video recalls familiar moments of NBA lore that you will want to own for countless repeat viewings. --Jeremy Storey
