Asus Eee Box B206

Reviews

  • HTC P3470

    Even with GPS and its expected lower price-tag the P3470 will struggle without Wi-Fi or 3G data speeds.

  • Norton Internet Security 2008

    While Symantec's protection is solid, the overall user experience within Norton Internet Security 2008 could be much, much better. Not all the features work together and use fewer system resources.

  • Mozilla Firefox 2

    Mozilla Firefox 2 is a winner, beating Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 on security, features, and overall cool factor and deserving our Editors' Choice award.

  • Norton Confidential beta

    While Norton Confidential beta from Symantec aims to protect your online transactions, and its antisphishing toolbar compares favourably to Netcraft's own offering, we found the Norton package to be overly large, including many other Symantec applets that seem unnecessary.

  • Windows Live Toolbar

    Windows Live Toolbar can enhance the usefulness of Internet Explorer, make Web surfing more fun, and spare you some mouse clicks -- if you take the time to get acquainted with its features.

  • Maxtor Shared Storage Plus

    Consumer NAS drives don't get classier or easier than the Maxtor Shared Storage Plus, but we'd like to see Gigabit Ethernet on it.

  • Netscape 8

    If you haven't looked at Netscape in a while, version 8 is worth it for its added security and extra features.
