Reviews

  • Punch-Out!!

    Punch-Out for the Wii isn't much different from the NES version, but it hardly matters when it's this much fun.

  • Lexmark Prestige Pro805

    The Pro805 frustrates as much as it innovates with a touchscreen interface and an interesting, iPhone-style app store.

  • Lenovo ThinkPad T400

    Lenovo's ThinkPad T400 is another fine entry into its portfolio, but be prepared to spend extra to get the features you need.

  • Netgear ReadyNAS Pro

    With the ReadyNAS Pro, Netgear has proven it's still king of the hill. However, some interface quirks, inelegant recovery from catastrophic volume failure, and poor volume, user and share management may put some users off.

  • Nokia E63

    Like its older brother, the E71, the E63 will make an excellent messaging phone, but is for people who need to be connected without the tech trimmings.

  • Kaspersky Internet Security 2009

    Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 provides adequate protection, but the program itself could use some work in telling the user what's going on.

  • Archos 5

    If you can afford it and want the best combination of Web access and outstanding video performance, this is one of the only players in the world you need to consider, despite its flaws.

  • Sins of a Solar Empire

    This isn't just the first great strategy game of 2008. It's also an absolute must-have if you love space strategy.
