These are plastic... Product review: I thought these were going to be made of stone. These feel and look like plastic beads. I wish I had spent my money on something nicer from a craft fair.

Review title: Far too Confusing Product review: Without the manual you would be lost!The THD of the so called KAM amplifier is far above any other comparable unit available.I think it is a gimmick to hide a cheap amp! Check the kenwood site for the KAM definition. I don't understand why the video connections on the back of the unit are not common with the front (back-video 1-2-3...front vcr 1-2, dvd). The volume control for all the channels is in db's and seems to be able to go into negative values. Having to scroll through all the audio modes with the selector knob is a joke. I didn't use the reciever long enought to understand all the features,needless to say I returned it. Maybe I expected too much from the kenwood.

Review title: HP 4070 Scanner NOT Vista-Compatible Product review: I bought the HP 4070 Scanner and used it with Windows XP for a couple years. Last Christmas, I bought a new laptop with Vista Home installed, and HP had no Vista driver available for the 4070. I did a lot of searching on HP's web site, and subscribed to their tech newsletters, but never found any solution. After several months, HP provided a "minimal driver", but it would not work with HP's scan software, so the front panel buttons to scan to printer, etc. would not work. My solution has been to keep my old desktop with XP for the sole purpose of scanning. HP orphaned this scanner. Their "solution" is for you to buy another scanner. Guess what, I'm not going to buy HP again. I can't believe HP is still selling the 4070 and not supporting it with a full Vista driver.

Review title: Interesting anomaly Product review: It's interesting that the only negative reviews of this book are both unsigned. Could both of those reviewers be female?
