This review is from: PC Cyborg V.3 Gaming Surface (Personal Computers)
This is the best mousing surface I've used to date. I accidentally bought two and I don't even care.
Pros: 1. Thin profile, about 5mm thick, tapered at the edges. 2. Silicone, non-slip backing: works best on a smooth, clean desk 3. Plasticized, finely-textured mousing surface: smooth mouse tracking, no snags like with cloth pads, no sweaty, sticky spots like with slick surfaces. 4. Decently large surface: I switch between two machines with their respective mouses, and both share the same pad without interfering.
The single con is the tacky Cyborg branding.
Stop using those cheap, snaggy, hot, hard to clean, cloth-faced, urethane foam pads you got at the nerd convention.
Also, cats will ignore this pad. The foam pads are soft and trap heat so cats like to sharpen their claws and sit on them.

Hey Ive had this for awhile and it is very nice. The only issue that I have had is cleaning the pad. It tends to get dirty and I have to clean dust from it every few months or it will begin to affect my mouse.

Tissot 1st popped up on my radar due to their involvement with motorcycle racing. After researching the brand, I bought my 1st Tissot about 3 yrs ago (the V8, still running strong). I love that watch for it's styling and quality.
Shortly after buying that watch, I learned about the T-touch. I will admit that I have liked this watch for many yrs before purchasing the T-Touch Expert III, so I may be a little bias.
This watch combines a masculine stylish watch with a ton of features that will bring the boy out in us all. The Titanium finish is beautiful and lightweight (only watch I have lighter is the Luminox 8802). The band is more comfortable than expected and easy to size.
Features This is my humble opinion on all the features I have figured out/ used so far.
The Touch crystal is very cool. Mine has worked flawless for about 6 months so far.
The Compass worked well in a recent trip to Germany. I was concerned about... Read more

Please be advised that this watch will not be covered by warranty from Tissot. I purchased this timepiece from Amazon and 45 days later the center button stopped functioning. I returned the watch to Tissot with my receipt from Amazon and they refused to provide service under warranty. They informed me that Amazon is not an authorized dealer and subsequently it cost me $184 to service the watch. Any further repairs will also not be considered as under warranty.

Great experience with Amazon and so far with the watch (have owned a week so far). Wanted to highlight a few things for potential buyers:
1) Watch Size - This watch is rather large and about 30%-40% thicker than say an Ironman. For those with smaller wrists, this may be an issue and given the size it makes titanium a must, in my opinion. Once on your wrist, the size becomes much less noticible than you would think from holding it in your hand, so really not a big deal. I really think the silicone band weighs more than the watch though.
2) Band Sizing - Ordered with the black rubber/silicone watch band, which I think looks great. In order to size the band, you are making a permanent decision because it involves cutting it with scissors. I made the mistake of cutting it exactly to size and now am worried I didn't leave enough wiggle room for if my wrist gets slightly bigger in the summer. What I noticed afterwards is that you should cut the band one length... Read more

This review is from: Rail Works 2 (PC) (UK) (DVD-ROM)
I have had MSTS for many years, added routes and some custom locos and rolling stock - both payware and freeware. I also spent over $150 on a Rail Driver controller (more than I spent for MSTS and the addons.)
However, when my XP pc crashed two years ago, I upgraded to a VISTA 64 pc. MSTS ran OK, but my RailDriver would not work.
It is now apparent that MSTS won't ever be upgraded, and it is looking kind of out of date.
So I got RailWorks2, which DOES work with my Rail Driver.
Overall, I am very pleased. The things I miss from MSTS don't matter too much, but they are:
I think the controls and "physics" were a bit more accurate in MSTS, I miss some sounds (dynamic braking sound is very low in RW2, if it is even there), night time lighting from locomotive lights is very anemic.
Things I like about RW2: better graphics, better ways to "see" what is happening to the train one is driving, and the environment of the tracks... Read more

I've tried Trainz 2010 and TS12, I own MSTS, and I can tell you this.... Railworks is the best of the bunch because it really has the least shortcomings of all the other trainsims.
The Trainz series are good... don't get me wrong but they pretty much have a serious graphics stuttering problem and horrible pop up issues with the graphics...even on high end gaming machines. When they iron that out we'll have some good competition again in this Genre.
Railworks 2 on the other hand runs beautifully on me computer with all graphics settings to the max I7 950/Nvidia 5780 GTX Win7 64bit. High quaility addons for Railworks 2 are starting to snowball on to the market as well... just take a look at steam or google "Railworks 2 addons" and you'll see what I mean. Also a great source for gameplay videos is Youtube.... check it out and then pick up a copy of Railworks2
Railworks 2 is lots of fun for train sim fans...You won't be sorry.

This game is awesome. I have enjoyed model railroading for 23 years now. It is hard, if not impossible to take a model railroad on military deployments. This game gives me the chance to drive trains on realistic routes and jobs. Once I got the hang of the different functions, I enjoy playing this game. I would recommend this game for anyone who is on the move or doesn't have the space for a model railroad. Great product!
