Reviews

  • Apple MacBook Pro 15-inch (June 2009)

    Apple's 15-inch MacBook Pro makes only minor tweaks to the previous version, but cutting prices and swapping the ExpressCard slot for an SD card slot are enough to make it a solid improvement over its predecessor.

  • Billion BiPAC 7300N Draft 802.11n ADSL2+/Broadband Router

    It's not much of a looker, and it struggles in signal strength, but Billion's 7300N ADSL2+ Modem/Router has grunt where it really counts.

  • Conceptronic Wireless 300Mbps Broadband starter pack

    Should we be surprised that yet another Wireless N router has failed to live up to the hype?

    The WTAP2400 works well enough as a basic wireless access point -- with an accent on the basic.

  • Apple Time Capsule (1TB) Network Storage

    Apple's hybrid 802.11n wireless router/networked hard drive offers some powerful data backup features for Mac owners, but Windows users and those who demand speed from their 802.11n network will be disappointed.

  • Samsung Widescreen

  • Engin Voicebox 3102

    If you want a simple VoIP box with PSTN pass-through, the Voicebox 3102 is it. It's a pity that it's locked to one VoIP provider, however, making it a slightly expensive option.

    Alienware's flagship gaming laptop, the Area-51 m9750, has plenty of appeal for high-end gamers, but the alien head aesthetic seems dated, and newer components are right around the corner.
