What's great about it: Plenty of power and large chute
I have owned juicers for the last 10 years and this is my second one after owning a juice lady brand. This Breville has a large enough "chute" where you do not have to slice anything that is large like apples. My juice lady I had to quarter larger fruit but not this Breville. I also line the pulp container with a throw away plastic grocery bag so cleanup is a breeze. The motor is strong enough where you can feed this juicer large items and it has plenty of power to juice. Happy with this purchase. I have owned this model for around a year and juice regularly with this machine.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Makes bread great and jam
I have owned a bread machine for the last 15 years. The Zojirushi is the best I have owned. With the other brand bread makers they would make a "square" loaf and I would not get that many slices from a loaf. With the Zojirushi I actually get a regular sized loaf of bread and very easy to slice. I will not purchase another loaf of bread from a store again. With this Zojirushi my family will get bread without any preservatives or added chemicals so it is healthier for you. I will be honest with you with the other manufactures bread machine I would go out and purchase bread "organic" of course because it would not make a great loaf. With the Zojirushi I have not needed to purchase bread, in fact it is fun to make just because the loaves turn out like it was store purchased. I have made white, sourdough, banana bread and even jam and all have turned out excellent. Next on the list is pizza dough and the meatloaf recipe. I am very glad I purchased the Zojirushi.

Kinect Sports Standard Edition - Xbox 360
Learn more about Kinect Sports. (Flash demo) Jump into the court, charge into the stadium and climb into the ring — there's a major sports competition going on, and you're at the center of the action. When the volleyball rockets through the air toward the edge of the boundary line, dive toward the ground, scoop your arms down and bump it up for your teammate to spike with all of her might. When you hear your opponent breathing down your neck, step it up and jump even faster over hurdles. When you sense a weak moment in the boxing ring, jab your rival in the stomach and watch him fall to the ground. You have the power to win — it's been in your body all along.The real all-stars of sports don't use buttons or joysticks on the paths to victory — so why should you? Leave your controller in the locker room and step out into the competition with the best tool you have — yourself. In Kinect Sports, real athletic action springs to life in your living room, and it's all controlled with the motions you make. Revolutionary motion-sensing technology recognizes you as you power through six intense sports, making you a true athletic champion.

What's great about it: Blu ray sound and picture
What's not so great: enjoyed the first movie
I enjoyed the first Transformers more than this one. The px/sound qualiity and bass are great on blu-ray though. The storyline on this second movie was not as great as the first transformers. I have the 1st one in my blu collection....only rented the second one, and probably will not purchase this one.

If you enjoy the matrix this movie is for you. Has a couple of adult scenes so younger audience should stay away. Acting and storyline is great. Hope there is a sequel.

how much is a gold membership?

Is it cheap? o_O at least, what's the best buy?
If you buy certain games they include a free subscrition for x-box live for a month and it is usually a gold membership. I have two accounts one for me and one for my son. It is around 40 dollars a year if I remember right and I think it is worth it. You can download demos of the games and play them before you buy. Very expansive network of things to do

X-box 360 or PS3 which and why

Have not tried a PS3 but have a Elite and Pro for my boy. I use my elite to stream music, pictures, movies from my computer to my tv which is pretty neat. Also they just did a update for x-box live which improved everything a lot. I enjoy all the games you can purchase and the x-box live experience is awesome. Hope this helps.

What should i buy, a Xbox or a Xbox elite?

I purchased a Elite. The reason at that time the other consoles did not have hdmi cable hookup and also did not have a 120 gb memory. Now I believe most of the 360's have hdmi hook up. And you can also buy a 120 gb for memory now as a accessory.
