Information is power.

Consumers need power -- because the only say we can have is with our checkbook.

Therefore, I fully support the concept of user based ratings. I think that professional reviews are needed as well, but professionals can't always see and/or test everything!

Even some of the self-proclaimed professional reviewers, like MSNBC's Gary Krakow or the Wall Street Journal's Walt Mossberg, don't seem to cover all the territory, or have glaring ommissions, -- and sometimes their professional reviews seem a bit amateurish. So why not let the common Joe jump in with his/her two cents worth? I can't see how it can hurt.

And like at least one previous poster here... I'm willing to send a few bucks via PayPal to help finance the idea.

Jason... thanks for asking!
