  • Dell Inspiron Mini 9

    The Dell Inspiron Mini 9 is a prime example of the netbook form factor, and the best 8.9-inch one available.

  • VMware Workstation 6

    VMware Workstation is an excellent product, having the potential to save IT managers many hours of work. And at only AU$257.23 per seat, it is also good value for money.

  • Apple iPod Nano (4th generation)

    Apple has set the Nano back on track with the thinnest, lightest design yet, and has features that are hard to ignore.

  • HP iPAQ 912c

    The HP iPAQ 912c defines the middle of the road. When you consider its performance versus the price, the 912c is passable but painfully average.

  • Fujitsu LifeBook E8420

    Fujitsu's foray into Centrino 2 laptops is solid, but the competition is offering more features at a lower price.

  • Norton Internet Security 2009

    Norton Internet Security 2009 hits all the right security notes and its superior protection technologies might even win back some jaded anti-Symantec folks, though the lack of adequate technical support may continue to frustrate.

  • Dell Vostro 1310

    Dell's small-business-focused Vostro 1310 has a temptingly affordable entry-level price, but a realistic specification soon brings it into line with the competition.

  • VMware ThinApp 4

    ThinApp, previously known as Thinstall, offers a more streamlined and portable approach to new software roll-outs and development. Software developers and administrators of large numbers of workstations and or mobile workers are bound to benefit greatly from this software.

  • Apple iPod Touch (2nd generation)

    If you've been holding back, now is the time: the second-gen Touch is an excellent media player, and the addition of third-party apps extends the fun for everyone, no matter where your interests lie.

  • Optus USB Slimline Modem

    The Optus USB modem works as advertised, but fluctuations in service and a few software bugs have hampered our experience during testing.

  • Western Digital My Book Mirror Edition (2TB)

    Western Digital's My Book Mirror Edition is good value, and if the lack of transfer speed doesn't deter, then short of an NAS it's one of the better ways consumers can keep their data safe.

  • Palm Treo Pro

    Beneath its iPhone-esque exterior lurks a very capable business phone.The Palm Treo Pro may not have the snazzy interface designs of the competition, but this means it performs better in most areas.

  • Sony VAIO VGNBZ15GN

    The VGNBZ15GN is Sony's latest business laptop in the VAIO range, and includes the new Centrino 2 platform. A heavy machine with strong performance, but let down by poor battery life.

  • Sun Microsystems Sun Fire X4450 server

    For raw power Sun Microsystem's Sun Fire X4450 is the gutsiest server we've seen, and at 2RU it's compact considering its specs. However, priced at over AU$27,000, this machine will make a dent in your budget.

  • ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite 2009

    ZoneAlarm Internet Security 2009 provides top-notch security protection that is light on system resources, allowing you to work unencumbered.

    StartupCamp Melbourne looks to have produced just as interesting ideas as the Sydney event which immediately preceded it, but the Victorian start-ups appear to have stumbled during execution. Sydney 1, Melbourne 0.
  • Array Google should come clean on datacentres
    It's nice that Google says it has put an effort into making its datacentres more energy efficient, but the search giant's pledges won't mean much until it discloses just how many of the beasties it's actually running.
  • Array US shows what OPEL could have been
    Sprint's WiMAX roll-out in Baltimore will prove the Australian government's decision to worm its way out of the Opel WiMAX contract was a short-sighted, and ultimately damaging, political stunt that has benefited nobody.
