Reviews

  • Chrome (beta)

    Google has rethought the Internet browser — some of its basic underpinnings are quite novel — but users will recognise some features as they exist in other, open-source browsers on the market today.

  • Internet Explorer 8 Beta 2

    Microsoft's release should retain its browser base but doesn't yet have enough to lure loyal Firefox users back to Internet Explorer.

  • Sunbelt CounterSpy 2.0

    In its first appearance, CounterSpy was the only antispyware product that correctly identified every piece of spyware in our current active-detection test.

  • Internet Explorer 7 RC1

    No new changes in this latest build of IE 7 from Microsoft, except for more stability and application compatibility, but this browser still is not ready for prime time.

  • Google Desktop 4 beta

    Google Desktop 4 beta is less clunky than its predecessor and we love the zippy search and creative Sidebar Gadgets. Still, we're wary of handing over our computing habits to Google's servers.

  • Windows Live OneCare

    Windows Live OneCare is the first of many managed online security services to debut this year.

  • McAfee Antispyware 2006

    McAfee AntiSpyware 2006 is a good antispyware choice if you're already using the other parts of McAfee's security suite.

  • Apple Mac Mini Core Duo

    Apple packs more media-specific features into the Mac Mini to make an inexpensive and useful entertainment-room computer. It's tremendously easy to use, although it surprised us with poor image processing.
