Reviews

  • NHL 10

    While it isn't as big of a leap forward as last year's game, NHL 10 is still one fantastic hockey sim.

  • Dell Inspiron Mini 10

    The Dell Inspiron Mini 10 looks to be an improvement on the Mini 9, although the initial low resolution screen, lack of WWAN and three-cell battery option could hamper initial sales. We'd recommend waiting for the updated model coming later this year.

  • B&W VM6

    The B&W VM6 are surprisingly capable loudspeakers but the compact dimensions stunt their performance.

  • LG Micro HiFi System FB163

    It's clad in a pretty package, but the FB163 disappoints on the performance front, offering confusing iPod features and an arguably superfluous USB recording function.

  • Lowepro Tasca 10

    Lowepro's Tasca 10 sleeve is a cheap and cheerful pouch for protecting your digital camera, MP3 player, mobile phone or PDA.

  • Ubuntu 7.04

    Ubuntu is very user-friendly but not right for everyone. Oddly, both casual and advanced users will find this operating system wonderful, while day-to-day users may rail against Ubuntu's incompatibility with certain popular software applications.

  • System Mechanic 7 Professional

    System Mechanic 7 Professional goes beyond its original greatness, morphing a system utility suite into a kind of grand security suite. As such, it comes up short.

  • Pioneer HTP-GS1

    Pioneer's HTP-GS1 speaker system is ideally suited for the Xbox 360 fanatic in your life. Read our Australian review.
