Title: Nice to know, but too complicated, abstract and unpragmatic Review: This book has some value even today, but I was quite bored during reading this book. I often noticed that Fowler has gift of describing simple things in complicated (and boring) ways, which happened many times in this particular book. I felt like this book was born in those "pattern days" where everyone tried to create own patterns on everything in the world. Fowler tries to describe some common domain problems and introduce various patterns that are supposed to deal with them.Some of them are quite nice and good at least to think about, but other were explained in very abstract manner, with weird (pre UML) pictures of often over-complicated problematics that poorly illustrated the domain problem.If your job is programming, you won't miss much if you ignore this book. If you are analyst, you should at least consider it, but it still isn't what you call "must read".

Title: JohnnyNo Review: The SDDR-31 didn't install correctly on my computer (windows 98se w/ AMD processor). I Called Sandisk tech support and they were able to get me up and running. Only one problem, my computer hangs up when I start the computer with the SDDR-31 connected to the USB port. The computer boots up fine if I disconnect the SDDR-31 and reboot. Then I can connect the SDDR-31 and it's operational (does everythng it's supposed to do). I spoke to Sandisk tech support once again and they told me to try downloading a patch from Microsoft. That didn't work. I'll keep trying.

Here is a review left by a customer on a product. Would you say he was satisfied or dissatisfied? Title: Don't buy this -- it breaks. Review: Someone needs to build a better version of this retractable clothesline. It worked well for two years, then the small plastic knob that allows you to tension the line broke. I thought it was just our unit, but coming back to Amazon to buy a replacement unit I noticed 11 other reviews where the same part broke. As others have said, there is no way to repair it and no way to get a replacement part. It's maddening. For the cost, it's not worth the risk. What a shame. Seriously, there must be a US manufacturer out there that will build a better version that stretches to 34'. That's what you need to handle a family size wash with the new larger capacity washers.
