Reviews

Tivoli Audio NetWorks

Despite a couple of shortcomings, the sound and look of the Tivoli Audio NetWorks Internet/FM radio makes up for a lot of its niggles.
HP Color LaserJet CP1215

The Color LaserJet CP1215 is HP's entry-level printer built to serve small workgroups, but it suffers from frustratingly slow print speeds, a missing LCD screen, and other problems.
HP Color LaserJet CP2025n

Although the HP CP2025n is rather slow to print black documents and is missing supplementary features, the colour laser shines in output quality, and the software holds your hand through a somewhat daunting learning curve. We recommend it to anyone hunting for a workhorse printer to complement an equally diligent work environment.
Samsung CLP-315W

The Samsung CLP-315W is a fancy looking wireless laser printer with a clean design and small footprint, but the output quality is unacceptable and the blisteringly slow speeds will have you searching for other options.
Samsung CLP-310

You don't get blazingly fast laser speeds with the CLP-310, but it does live up to the hype of offering affordable colour laser printing in a small form factor.
Dell Studio 17

The Dell Studio 1735 is a decent laptop which is best for multimedia and casual gaming, but the glossy, hi-res screen isn't suited to general usage.
HP Deskjet D2560

A bare bones desktop printer with a minimum of features and accessories, the HP Deskjet D2560 is really only suitable for printing basic black and white pages. Don't trust it with your photographs.
Kodak ESP 5 All-in-One Printer

Kodak sells the ESP 5 on its cheap printing capabilities. Sadly, in this context, cheap equals not very good.
