Reviews

  • Apple Magic Mouse

    The Magic Mouse introduces some new innovations, but its long-term comfort and lack of customisability puts it behind the competition.

  • Mophie Juice Pack Air

    It costs a pretty penny, but for people who need more juice in their iPhone, the Juice Pack Air is worth every cent.

  • Sony Vaio W

    Attempting to create a premium-priced version of a netbook, Sony has added an HD display to the Vaio W. It's an attractive step-up package, but the internal components are the same as are in cheaper models.

    Though the updates are subtle, the third-generation iPod Touch still leaves its competitors in the dust.

    The Pioneer VSX-1019AH delivers an excellent feature set and outstanding sound quality for its price, making it our top mid-range A/V receiver pick so far.

    Windows 7 is more than what Vista should have been — it's where Microsoft needed to go. How much damage Vista did and whether Windows 7 is enough for people to finally abandon Windows XP are questions that nobody has the answers to right now.

  • Microsoft Windows 7 (Professional)

    Windows 7 looks like the operating system that we've all been waiting for. Despite its imperfections, it shows a lot of promise for the future while presenting a stable platform that can compete comfortably with OS X.
