Reviews
-
Pro Evolution Soccer 2010
This year's Pro Evo improves upon its predecessor in some key areas, but it does little else to keep up with the competition.
-
HP ProBook 4310s
If you find that the price is right and you are only planning on doing menial tasks, you could do a lot worse than the HP ProBook.
-
HP 2159m
HP's 21.5-inch monitor is fairly average for its class — however, in the face of its limitations, the price doesn't add up.
-
HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One C309g

-
HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless
The HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless makes a convincing inkjet argument for offices with a high volume of prints. With a function touchscreen, multiple networking options and an astoundingly fast print speed, it makes perfect sense to give this workhorse an Editors' Choice award.
-
HP Mini 5101
HP's biz-minded Mini 5101 is a successor to the Mini 2140 (one of our all-time favourite netbooks). It looks and feels great, but for a premium-price netbook, we expect to get more features, not fewer.
-
HP SimpleSave Portable 320GB
HP's SimpleSave portable drive does make backups simple, as long as your file names aren't too long.

Green printing: How does your printer stack up?
Considering the extensive range of consumables, from paper to cartridges, it's no surprise that printers are one of the big areas where environmental concerns take centre stage. So what can you do to lessen the impact that your printing has on the environment?

Photo sharing services: To pay or not to pay?
