  In carriers' high-def future, pants are the real winners

• HP Color LaserJet CP2025n

  Although the HP CP2025n is rather slow to print black documents and is missing supplementary features, the colour laser shines in output quality, and the software holds your hand through a somewhat daunting learning curve. We recommend it to anyone hunting for a workhorse printer to complement an equally diligent work environment.

• HP w2228h

  HP's w2228h is certainly a pretty looking monitor, and includes stand adjustments not often seen elsewhere, but capability wise it's no better than other 22-inch monitors that are AU$200-$300 cheaper.

• HP 2533t Mobile Thin Client

• HP Photosmart C8180

  At AU$599, the Photosmart C8180 sits in Hewlett-Packard's lineup as one of its most expensive All-in-One (AIO) players. With a suite of features, it's not without a few missteps. The photo quality is better than average and the hardware is well-designed, but the lack of an auto-document feeder (ADF) and painfully slow print speed prevent us from giving this otherwise excellent printer a better rating.
