About a minute before I read Sandy's message I was looking at the latest
issue (v.5, no.23; Oct. 2, 1998) of The Scout Report.  Here is item 19 in
its entirety:

"19. Review Booth
http://www.reviewbooth.com/

This site serves as a clearinghouse for published hardware and software
product reviews, currently offering links to over 5,300 reviews. Although
the reviews are from well known sources (e.g., _PC Week_ and c|net)
located off-site, Review Booth offers users one-stop searching. If, for
example, the new low prices have inspired you to invest in a scanner, one
search can yield links to multiple reviews for comparison and contrast.
Users can search by software and hardware type and date of review. The
site is updated frequently and the New & Interesting and Latest Reviews
sections offer links to reviews of the newest and most notable products.
