Reviews

  • Norton Internet Security 2010

    Norton Internet Security 2010 builds on the immense progress it made in last year's version, maintaining a low system profile while strengthening its security framework. It's not perfect, but even Symantec's detractors should check it out.

  • Samsung Omnia Icon

    Its excellent multimedia support, storage and gorgeous display make the Omnia better for people who put pleasure before business.

  • Lenovo ThinkPad W700ds

    It's a 120GB hard drive, it comes with software and a cable to sync data between two drives, and it stores multimedia content. Its cost however is slightly prohibitive, making it a little hard to swallow even for hardcore gamers.
