Advantages: Very versatile. excellent colour printing, good price (£89) Disadvantages: Ponderous software install. Longevity question mark hanging over it
Suddenly, everything?s ?coming up printers? in the BNibbles? household, and I?ve also updated what I thought of the HP C5180, the predecessor to my new HP C6380.
Having just written about my new Samsung laser printer, I guess it was only a matter of time before Argos, the God of Laminated Catalogues decreed that my other printer should pack up on me just when I was already having an 'expensive' month.
My first 'all-in-one', an HP C5180 had given sterling service for the first 10½ months of its first year in my possession until sadly it developed a fault that couldn't be cleared. A month later, after much to-ing and fro-ing with HP's Support Desk (was it still under warranty or wasn't it, the manufacturing date being yonks before the purchase date), I was delivered a 'refurbished' replacement (it being by now an obsolete ...

Advantages: The best storyline I have found in a game. Its not just Oblivion with guns. Disadvantages: Texture loading issues.
Mass Effect by Bioware is one of the best action - rpg's I have ever played.

The graphics are stunning, the game will take you to many planets, some snowcovered, others barren deserts, some tropical rainforests to name a few and they all ...
