Review title: Waste of time and money (unable to activate) Product review: Tried to install the software on my desktop computer. All went well until it came time to activate the software (over the Internet). The attempt returned a network error, and continued to do so on every subsequent attempt. I then spent hours on the phone to Microsoft without any success activating it. The case was elevated and I was told that they (Microsoft) would be in touch. That was two weeks ago and I have not heard another peep from Microsoft. In the meantime, I have discovered that this is a "known problem" with Streets & Trips 2008. But, unfortunately, the solution to the problem is apparently still unknown. Bottom line? Inexcusable crap. I would give this software no stars if I could.

Review title: defective new Product review: The fan clutch from Hayden I thought would be a quality item, but it let me down! It failed on my first trip over the mountains. Runs fan continuously during warm-up, delays coming on until engine is getting hot and then stays on for a very long time. None of this lack of sensitivity is good for fuel economy in my RV. When the fan is running constantly the water temp is too cold. I just hope I can return this item and buy a different brand. What a nuckle busting job to do again! The original clutch lasted 32 years.

Review title: Bosch Rotary Hammer Product review: If you're like me and don't do do enough work to justify a top notch hammer drill (i.e., Hilti brand), this drill is an excellent choice. For what I have paid in rental fees I could have bought this unit several times over, so I finally did!Build quality is first class as I have come to expect from the many other Bosch power tools I own. It is perhaps unfair to only give this tool 4 stars since I am comparing it to a Hilti that costs much more, but, it does lack a little power when it comes to the hammer mode. Still I would buy it again.

Review title: Not a simulator but totally fun Product review: I like racing games for my summer play list because you can load them up, play and quit in 15 minute cycles. They are great for when you have just a few minutes to play between all the rest of the things you want to do in life. Simulator racing games that isn't the same. You have to perfect the course and sqeeze all the time shaving out of each turn. They are less forgiving to the casual gamer.Burnout Paradise is very forgiving in it's most basic control but because there are so many features in the game unlocking all of them as an option will entertain game masters everywhere.Graphics aren't photo realistic but that's OK because they are still great and I don't see any frame rate problems.For a generally awesome fun game that has a lot of quality gameplay Burnout Paradise is worth $20.
