Reviews

  • Apple iMac 27-inch (Core 2 Duo 3.06GHz)

    Behind its expansive display, Apple has packed one of the fastest all-in-ones available, and added a few useful extras to sweeten the deal.

  • 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.

  • Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6)

    Intel Mac users will like Snow Leopard's smartly designed interface enhancements, and its Exchange support is a must-have (especially with Outlook for Mac on the way). With a ton of technological improvements, Snow Leopard is worth the AU$39 upgrade fee.

  • Western Digital My DVR Expander

    Western Digital's TiVo expanding drive works as advertised, but is only recommended for non-networked homes.

  • TiVo Home Networking

    It's tough to move past the sticker shock of the cost of TiVo's home networking solution, but it is a simple solution for those wanting more portable TV out of their PVR.

  • TiVo 160 Media Device

    Despite missing some key features, the TiVo HD is a worthwhile investment if you don't want to pay for cable, and it poses no ongoing EPG fees.

  • ViewSonic Pro8100

    The ViewSonic Pro8100 is an excellent 1080p projector, which features a Silicon Optix HQV video processor and support for 24p.

  • Adobe Media Player 1.0

    Adobe's Media Player is an excellent application that is beautifully designed and easy to use. Shame about the currently available content.
