Logitech G500

If you loved the G5, you'll continue loving the G500, the natural evolution of Logitech's classic gaming mouse. Though Microsoft brings stiff competition in the form of the SideWinder X8, which may be more appealing to some.

Reviews

  • Acer Extensa 5635Z

    The Extensa is a business laptop with no particular frills. That's not a bad thing per se, but it's tough to get too excited about it, either.

  • Microsoft Security Essentials

    Microsoft Security Essentials is recommended for those who want something to set and ignore, but users who want more robust configuration choices or don't want to contribute to the cloud should look elsewhere.

  • 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.

  • Verbatim Rapier V1

    Verbatim's Rapier V1 is an interesting beast. If it can bring up the responsiveness of the mouse buttons and make its powerful software more polished and easy to use, then it could be on to a winner for its next revision.

  • BenQ nScreen i91

    BenQ's nettop looks affordable on the surface, but you're still paying a premium for a low-powered desktop machine.

  • Sonim XP3 Enduro

    The XP3 Enduro may not look pretty and it has the features of a prepaid mobile, but it's probably the only phone you'll find that can be driven over by a car and still work.

  • Halo Wars

    Halo Wars is a fun strategy outing for fans of the universe, but it feels simplistic and short alongside other games in the genre.

  • Apple iWork '09

    Intuitive interface design and easy access to useful features make iWork the best office suite choice on the Mac. Though it lacks some of Microsoft Office's advanced options, iWork '09 is an emerging powerhouse in its own right.
