Review title: Vista vs. the mic Product review: regardless of the product description this device did not work for me with Vista as my operating system. I wasted a lot of time trying to make it work before it occurred to me that I had a compatibility issue between the microphone and Vista.George

Review title: DVD DOESN'T WORK IN THE U.S.!! Product review: OK, so, I ordered this dvd/cd combo because the other one of the same title on Amazon specifically states that it is regions 2-5 coded. As this item stated NOTHING about region coding I assumed that it worked in the U.S. WRONG WRONG WRONG. I bought this item only because of the live dvd, and it doesn't work at all. I could go out and buy an all regions dvd player, but why should I have to? AMAZON should have stated that this dvd doesn't work in the U.S., and from now reading the other reviews, this is a problem of which they are aware. This item is a waste of money unless you have an all regions player. LOVE JAMES BLUNT. HATE THIS ITEM.

Q: You are considering whether to buy a product. You look at the reviews. Would the following review decrease or increase the chances of you buying the product? Review title: not really for moving or living in NYC Product review: The neighborhood descriptions take up the first 150 pages, but they are written for a turist guide, not a "moving guide". There is no mention of prices, or managing companies, or name of buildings. It is paradoxical that the best advice in this guide for the purpose of finding buildings is to buy another guide: Gabriel's Apartment Rental GuideOther information take up the rest of the book (roughly page 150 to 400). This section includes the following lists: some realtors, some movers, utilties, some banks, some child-related services, some shops, some theaters and more. Most of these lists do not appear comprehensive, or selected according to some specific criterion. I believe you can find the same information on the internet or the yellow pages.There is some useful information, but not much of it. It might have also some modest value in making some of the information readily accessible. All in all, I regret the purchase.

Review title: Very good except for a few things Product review: I had been givin this camera from my parents on my birthday. It a real good camera for the price. The only problems with it is that it doesn't zoom in and it doesn't load the pictures very quickly. So this is the camera to buy to get started with digital cameras.
