Samsung Q1: a first look review

HP Compaq 2710p review
Reviews The first impression of this notebook is one of stylishness. The top part of the screen bezel can house a webcam, although our review sample did not have one fitted. The same clasp holds both together when the screen is rotated 180 degrees around...

Premiere 6.5 review
Reviews The former is far too basic to be seriously positioned alongside an NLE of Premiere’s stature, giving the impression that Adobe is treading water until it has something better to offer (perhaps in version 7?

HP Compaq t5720 Thin Client review
Reviews But, with that in mind, the t5720 makes a good impression. A small stand allows the t5720 to be used vertically, or it can be positioned horizontally and -- using a monitor stand -- placed under a screen.

ConceptDraw MindMap Professional 2 review
Reviews Although MindMap Pro 2’s documentation gives a poor impression, its designers have done a good job on the user interface. Pausing the mouse cursor on this icon automatically displays the text note in a pop up box on-screen.

Acer’s 17in.-screen notebook review
Reviews Pictures don't get anywhere near giving an impression of the size. Acer's new 1700 series weighs over 7kg, thanks largely to its massive 17in.screen. Acer thinks that consumers will like the Aspire 1700 because it provides desktop functionality in...
