Reviews

Corel Digital Studio 2010

A majority of home users will appreciate Corel Digital Studio's feature set, its interactive projects, and wide support for photo and video formats.
HP Photosmart C8180

The C8180 multifunctional printer is an excellent choice for photo enthusiasts. It prints high-quality text and photos at a heavy price: the printer is slow. If you always choose quality over speed, the C8180 will be a worthwhile addition to your digital toolshed.
AVG Internet Security 8.0

AVG Internet Security 8.0 provides strong protection against malicious Web sites, but its full-system scans sometimes tax system resources and produce false positives.
BitDefender Antivirus 2008

BitDefender Antivirus 2008 has greatly improved since last year; we'd like more access to configuration options beyond simple enabling and disabling features.
Panasonic DMR-EX85

Panasonic's DMR-EX85 is crammed with more recording and playback features than you can imagine, including an enormous 250GB hard drive, universal disc compatibility and integrated video scaling.
Topfield TF6000PVRt

Topfield's PVR line improves with the TF6000PVRt, but the wireless capability and general setup could still do with some improvement.
Samsung DVD-HR735

Samsung's DVD-HR735 offers HDMI connectivity, but beyond that it's a largely unexciting DVD recorder.
Philips DVDR3360H

The DVDR3360H has a lot of promise on paper, but less than acceptable playback performance and some truly baffling limitations in its menu and titling structures detract from the overall package.
