  • The bonfire of online vanities: Web 2.0 critic speaks

    Lee Siegel is a cultural critic who has written for The New York Times, Slate and The Nation. However, he is perhaps best known for what happened in 2006 when writing for The New Republic.

  • Microsoft's next move as Yahoo rejects dowry

    As Microsoft's deadline for Yahoo to accept its takeover bid passes, the tech world is still waiting for information from either company on their wedding plans.

  • Making the security ROI model work

    Chief Security Officers face a challenging quandary at budget-time because the traditional return on investment (ROI) model falls apart when it is applied to security products — but as that is the only language budget-approvers speak, what is a CSO to do?

  • Novell CEO: We made Microsoft open up

    Speaking to the Novell boss at his company's annual BrainShare user conference in Salt Lake City, Utah, ZDNet.com.au's sister site, ZDNet.co.uk asked whether the Microsoft deal could actually be damaging in the long run and what effect a financial downturn could have on Novell's recent recovery.

  • Photos: Symantec's Security Response labs

    ZDNet.com.au takes a peek behind the scenes at the security specialist's European anti-malware operation in Dublin.

  • Cisco: Economics doesn't stop business networking

  • Ten things holding back tech

    Ever get the feeling that we aren't quite yet where we want to be? Here are 10 factors that may be holding back the world's technological development.

  • SA eyes Apple, Red Hat to dodge vendor lock-in

    The South Australian government is looking at a software overhaul that could see Apple or Red Hat taking over from Microsoft on the state's PCs. Analysts warn, however, skills costs could still lead to a software environment dominated by a single platform.

  • The secure Mac: myth or legend?

    Apple computers have built a solid reputation on being virus-free, but is the reality different from the image?

Reviews

  • ESET NOD32 3.0 Antivirus System (Windows)

    Eset NOD32 3.0 delivers an easy-to-use version of its award-winning antivirus engine. Although our performance testing was mixed, NOD32 continues to rank among the best-rated antivirus products by independent antivirus testing labs.

  • AVG Internet Security 8.0

    AVG Internet Security 8.0 provides strong protection against malicious Web sites, but its full-system scans sometimes tax system resources and produce false positives.

  • Windows Server 2008

    Windows Server 2008 is easier to install and manage than previous versions, and has many new and improved features that should encourage organisations to upgrade.

  • Acer TravelMate 6292 (602G16Mn)

    The Acer TravelMate 6292 passes muster, and comes in at a great price. We just wish it looked a little nicer.

  • Terapad Pro

    Hosted CMS and blog solutions litter the market, yet none offer Terapad's combination of simplicity and functionality.

  • McAfee Internet Security Suite 2008

    McAfee Internet Security 2008 trounces Norton Internet Security 2008, offering a better designed product with more security tools.

  • Norton Internet Security 2008

    While Symantec's protection is solid, the overall user experience within Norton Internet Security 2008 could be much, much better. Not all the features work together and use fewer system resources.

  • McAfee VirusScan Plus 2008

    McAfee VirusScan Plus 2008's protection keeps up with the changing threats on the Internet, but the product doesn't excel, burdened by a user experience that's basically unchanged from last year.

  • Apple MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2.4GHz)

    Apple's 15-inch MacBook Pro gets a solid under-the-hood upgrade for better performance and longer battery life, allowing the MacBook Pro to put enough distance between itself and the lower-end MacBook to justify its higher price.

  • Trend Micro Antivirus plus Antispyware 2008

    Trend Micro Antivirus plus Antispyware 2008 offers a variety of features designed for the home and small office.

  • Dear carriers: More walking, less talking

    Sometimes, a well-placed and well-timed letter can make all the difference. Other times, it can make no difference at all — and even hurt your case. This week's missive by the Competitive Carriers' Coalition, I would suggest, falls into the latter category.

  • Forget prez – vote Hillary for Optus

    Hillary Clinton's nine lives are not yet depleted and, despite allegations that her stubborn refusal to concede defeat earlier has fragmented her party, she fought her battle to the very end. By placing bets several ways, that battle may just turn into gold for her down the track. Has Optus taken a leaf out of Hillary's book?

  • Conroy faces a showdown at the FTTN corral

    Say what you will about Senator Stephen Conroy, but he is clearly not a man afraid of confrontation. Well, he'd better not be, because by killing off the OPEL WiMax project he has just set himself up for a battle with Telstra of Biblical proportions — or a big meal of crow washed down with a $4.7 billion gift to SingTel Optus.

  • Getting naked reveals the hard truth of ULL

    Streaker Robert Ogilvie may have learned the hard way that getting naked can be painful, but many other Australians are apparently learning the same lesson as they try to break ties with Telstra once and for all.

  • Are you getting what you voted for?

    One of the real dangers of election season -- for politicians, at least -- is being held to their word.

  • Could they all just kiss and make up already?

    Australian telecoms is increasingly resembling the US during Prohibition, with Telstra as Al Capone and the ACCC as Eliot Ness.

  • Labor: Clueless on wireless?

    If there ever were concrete evidence that Labor is blowing smoke up the proverbials of the Australian population, it came earlier this month as Senator Stephen Conroy, the man charged with promoting Labor’s fibre-everywhere policy while simultaneously taking potshots at his counterpart Senator Helen Coonan, put his foot squarely in his mouth.

  • Telstra still only cheers for Telstra

    The men running Telstra have been accused of a lot of things, but lack of conviction is definitely not one of them. I found this out recently after having the chance to hear Phil Burgess, the company’s most senior regular spokesperson and an outspoken critic of the government’s telecommunications policy, address an AIIA-sponsored business lunch in Melbourne.

  • Mandla, Mardi Gras and Moore

    As residents of NSW prepare to hit the polls, it's an apt time to take a look at the online campaign of former ACS president Edward Mandla, who has employed YouTube in his efforts to oust Clover Moore in the Sydney electorate.

  • New year, same problems

    As we embark on a new year, the industry hype-machine is slowly warming up to sell us new technologies that will make our jobs easier in 2007. Rest assured though that some problems will remain, like spam.

  • Angus Kidman I'm a celebrity, don't back me up
    Celebrity comes with its perks — free alcohol, better-looking partners, lots of holiday time — and disadvantages — constant media intrusions, being forced to appear in films with Eddie Murphy for the long-term good of your career, and having to do mindless radio interviews with angry men who've been awake since 4am.
  • Array Lies, damned lies and telco stupidity
    Earlier this month, Telstra put out a press release trumpeting that it's come up with a new phone coaching service to help people who are "bamboozled" by their mobiles. Another excellent example of wrongheaded thinking from the mobile industry.
