Title: A Slap In The Face Review: I forget how much I picked this thing up for. It was a while ago...and I still remember it...because of how much it sucked. I can't believe 10 ppl gave it 5 stars.You want to know how much it sucked? I got it just as we were going on a road trip. We watched it (or attempted to) in one of the motels that we slept in, and I actually left the DVD there. Intentionally...didn't wanna see it ever again. Don't buy it, don't even download it (I don't think anybody would bother ripping it). Go to youtube and see a ton more exciting stuff. Is this product review negative?

Title: Entertaining in a subdued way Review: I always admired Dire Straits, although to be honest, I never owned any of their albums. I was intrigued to read about this solo effort from 2000 by Mark Knopfler, and decided to order it here. The album is a mixed bag at best, the best tunes being the title tune, sung by Knopfler and James Taylor, and a ditty featuring Van Morrison singing alternate verses. There also are two cuts featuring a well-known bluegrass duo singing in the background. The rest is Knopfler alone, with limited instrumental backing, and frankly these songs sound pretty much the same as Knopfler only knows one way to sing. He's not terribly expressive. Harry Chapin or Jim Croce he ain't. On the other hand, you can put this CD on in your car and listen to it more than once as the miles fly by. It has a slightly hypnotic effect.

Title: Repeats too much of prev version - omits SQL 2000 topics Review: I have bought every version of this book and am really disappointed with this one. We just switched to SQL 2000 and bought this book so that we'd have a good reference. What a terrible letdown. Things missing:1. XML coverage 2. Distributed partioned views 3. New data types 4. Security 5. High availability enhancements 6. Transact-SQL enhancements (for example, new trigger types)There's more info in the BOL on each of these than in this book, and that shouldn't be. IMO, these are all core subjects. If XML is as central to Microsoft's plans as they say, you'd think that this book they've put out would at least mention it, but it doesn't....
