What Disclamier to put?

    Hi
    My site reviews (computer hardware mainly) products. It also lists specifications about them, and links to (online) shops that sell those products.

    What shall I write as a disclamier?

    I was thinking:

    PLEASE BE AWARE THAT WE CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR INCORRECT INFORMATION. PLEASE DOUBLE CHECK ALL INFORMATION GIVEN. WE ARE JUST LISTING A BASIC REVIEW, WHICH IS OUR OPINION OF THE PRODUCT/PRODUCTS. We cannot be held responsible for any damages to you, anyone else, or loss in profits, or anything else. This site is not responsible for any damage (including, but not limited to, loss of data, loss of profits, damages to yourself or other persons or items, or death) that the information on this site may cause to your system.


    What would you put?

    Something like this perhaps [replace [xxx] with your site name]:

    PRODUCTS AND OTHER CONTENT (INCLUDING THIRD PARTY
    INFORMATION, PRODUCTS AND CONTENT) INCLUDED IN OR ACCESSIBLE
    FROM THIS WEB SITE AND THE [xxx] WEB SITES.


    Liability Disclaimer

    LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
    TO ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
    INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF USE, PROFITS,
    DATA OR OTHER INTANGIBLES, OR THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OR
    SUBSTITUTE GOODS AND SERVICES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO
    THE USE, INABILITY TO USE, UNAUTHORISED USE, PERFORMANCE OR
    NON-PERFORMANCE OF THIS WEB SITE, ANY [xxx] SITE OR
    THE SERVICES, EVEN IF [xxx] HAS BEEN ADVISED
    PREVIOUSLY OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND WHETHER

    Hope this helps:)

    Thanks.
    I used that as a basis on techneek.co.uk/misc/disclaimer.php

    Do you think that will be ok? I don't want to provide information about a product (for example if i say it is 400gb but really only 10gb), then a viewer trusts what I say, then decides to sue me because I made a mistake/linked to wrong thing/etc.
