Toshiba M40
The M40 boasts an impressive array of the latest notebook technologies, especially for those with a multimedia bent, although it could do with running a little quieter and cooler.
Pinnacle Studio 11
Pinnacle's Studio Ultimate offers a nice bridging gap product for those with low or high end video shooting equipment but little knowledge in video editing. Its Activation process is a royal pain, and set-up is likewise fiddly, but it ranks amongst the best in its class for ease-of-use video editing.
Spybot Search and Destroy
Spybot is both free and adaptable for both beginning and power users, but it left behind several known spyware apps.
Lavasoft Ad-aware SE Personal Edition 1.06
Lavasoft's free version of Ad-aware is an industrial-strength antispyware program that is simple to use and now sports a sleek new interface.
Sony NW-E50
With a long battery life and features traditionally found on larger, more expensive players, the NW-E50 is a packed little powerhouse of MP3 playing power.
Creative Live Cam Optia AF
If remote video surveillance or time-lapse photography is something you want to do with a Webcam, the Creative Live Cam Optia AF is a good pick. For all others, Logitech has a better (and slightly cheaper) Webcam.
Microsoft Windows Defender
Microsoft Windows Defender is perhaps the best free antispyware application we looked at this year, but it's lacking when compared to brand-name antivirus-plus-antispyware solutions.
MailFrontier Desktop
Of the antispam apps we've seen, MailFrontier Desktop is the best at doing exactly what it's supposed to do: block spam.
Seagate Pushbutton Backup External Hard Drive
Seagate's Pushbutton External Hard Drive is capacious, but its performance is disappointing.
Norton SystemWorks 2005 Premier
Symantec continues to ride the favourable reputation of Norton Utilities, introducing very few new features into Norton SystemWorks 2005.
HP Photosmart 8450
The Photosmart 8450 is HP's most feature-packed eight-ink photo inkjet that churns out great black-and-white photos.
Toshiba Qosmio G10 Media Center
Very impressive technology, with a strange double role, and a price tag that matches its massive size.
Acer TravelMate C200
Acer's C200 provides a decent tablet computing experience, but it is let down by sub-par battery life.
Propellerhead Reason 3
With its impressive new Combinator tool, Propellerhead's Reason 3 makes it even easier -- and more fun -- to create amazing songs and sounds.
Norton AntiVirus 2007
By rewriting much of the code, Symantec made Norton AntiVirus 2007 faster and lighter than its 2006 version, but a few glitches here and there keep us from granting it our Editors' Choice award.
Asus PW201
The entertainment-oriented Asus PW201 offers superior image quality and an impressive collection of video connections, but it costs more than competing 20-inch wide-screen LCDs and includes a Webcam that suffers from buggy software.
ZoneAlarm Internet Security 6.0
ZoneAlarm Security Suite puts Norton and McAfee to shame with its easy-to-use triple-layer firewall, antivirus, antispam and now antispyware features.
Windows XP Professional x64 edition
Microsoft's first venture into 64-bit OS is not for the faint of heart; only early adopters and those running 64-bit software should give Windows XP Professional x64 a try.
Apple Mac Pro
Apple's Mac Pro has design innovations that we hope will cross over to other systems. Its performance is as strong as you'd expect for a system in its class, and it's priced right, too. You might need more flexibility in your config options, especially for 3D design, but otherwise, the Mac Pro is as solid a professional-class PC as we've seen.
