• Lexmark Interact S605

  Lexmark's S605 carries a premium price, but the clever touchscreen features do justify it.

• SonicWall TZ 210

  SonicWall's feature-packed TZ 210 gateway security appliance is capable of protecting all kinds of networks at a very affordable price. It's easy to set-up and manage, and sets a new price point in the UTM market.

• Dell Vostro 1220

  At first glance, the Vostro 1220 looks like an ultraportable notebook that was born from Dell's consumer range. But instead Dell has created its own little niche, targeting the more fashion-conscious business user on a budget.

• Gigabyte Booktop M1022M

  The Booktop may be on the costly side, thanks to the bundled docking station, but it still falls below "premium" netbook costs. Plus the excellent battery life and ability to switch from a desk-bound PC to a portable mini-laptop captured our attention.

• Sony Ericsson Naite

  Sony Ericsson's Naite isn't a heart-starter but let's face it, the reason you'd buy the Naite is for the secret pleasure of knowing your phone is slightly less of a burden on the environment than those wretched iPhones.

• Epson Stylus Photo T50

  The T50 is a reasonably priced single-function printer that produces good photos and can handle CDs too, but the ongoing consumable costs and text quality let this inkjet down.

• Acer Extensa 5635Z

  The Extensa is a business laptop with no particular frills. That's not a bad thing per se, but it's tough to get too excited about it, either.

• HP StorageWorks X500 Data Vault

  A fascinating development in the rather ragged history of Windows Home Server, HP's StorageWorks X500 Data Vault range has been pointed at the small to medium business.

• Microsoft Security Essentials

  Microsoft Security Essentials is recommended for those who want something to set and ignore, but users who want more robust configuration choices or don't want to contribute to the cloud should look elsewhere.

• D-Link Wireless N Router DIR-615

  At a very affordable price, the D-Link Wireless N Router DIR-615 makes a great entry-level Wireless-N router and would satisfy most situations where a wireless network is needed.

• Norton AntiVirus 2010

  Norton AntiVirus 2010 builds on the immense progress made in last year's version, maintaining a low system profile while strengthening its security framework. It's not perfect, but even Symantec's detractors should check it out.

• Sony Vaio W

  Attempting to create a premium-priced version of a netbook, Sony has added an HD display to the Vaio W. It's an attractive step-up package, but the internal components are the same as are in cheaper models.

• Apple iTunes 9

  iTunes 9 is a natural, yet relatively minor, evolution of Apple's popular media management software and is a required download for new iPod owners.

• Seagate Barracuda XT

  The Barracuda XT is a 7200rpm 3.5-inch desktop drive featuring 2TB of storage capacity and a fast Serial ATA (SATA) 6Gb/second interface.

• Norton Internet Security 2010

  Norton Internet Security 2010 builds on the immense progress it made in last year's version, maintaining a low system profile while strengthening its security framework. It's not perfect, but even Symantec's detractors should check it out.
