1&1 Internet – MailXchange
One of the hassles involved in running a small to medium sized enterprise is managing the software that your employees use to go about their daily tasks. Leaving aside word processors and spreadsheet applications for a moment, the one set of tools that pretty much every business requires is centred on communication: e-mail, contacts, calendar…
BitDefender – GameSafe Antivirus Defence
There’s a fairly substantive list of boasts on the box of BitDefender GameSafe Antivirus Defence, and it’s a wonder Focus Multimedia could squeeze them on, given the length of the product’s name. But for £12.99, this product claims to offer anti-virus, anti-rootkit, anti-spyware and anti-phishing protection, along with adding a firewall to your PC’s armoury….
Epson – Stylus SX600FW
The Stylus SX600FW is one of Epson’s new range of inkjets, intended for use in small and home offices. It’s a full all-in-one, with fax and photo printing as well as its core print, scan and copy functions. Decked out in matte and gloss black, the top of the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) has been…
FujiFilm – FinePix S2000HD
With the modern generation of camera users becoming more comfortable with the digital format, most camera manufacturers are wisely ensuring that they are meeting the needs of both the point-‘n’-click amateurs who don’t want to be bothered with any micro-management, and the increasingly adventurous snappers who want to explore more of the features that digital…
Brother – DCP-585CW
Brother has a range of inexpensive inkjet all-in-one printers and the DCP-585CW is designed to sit near the top of that range. It’s a four-in-one machine, offering printing, scanning, copying and photo print, and this last feature is accommodated by having a separate feed tray for 15 x 10cm photo paper, built into the lid…
Rockstar – Midnight Club: Los Angeles
Los Angeles is huge. We can still remember the first time we flew into the place at night, just marvelling at the city lights below stretching to the visible horizon in every direction. And Rockstar has modelled the centre of the City of Angels in the latest Midnight Club, from the high class Beverly Hills…
Brother – HL-2035
You may think Brother is a comparative newcomer when it comes to providing office printers, but the company has been rapidly establishing a reputation as suppliers of solid and reliable machines to meet all your practical needs. Most recently it has released a number of affordable mono laser printers and the HL-2035 continues in this…
Fluenz – Language Learning
Language learning isn’t what it used to be. Interactive DVDs that were basically glorified school textbooks have now been replaced with ‘revolutionary’ new systems that stop just short of promising to trick you into learning while you sleep. Fluenz is one such system and is available for French, Spanish, Italian and Mandarin. Where rivals like…
Epson – P-7000 Multimedia Storage Viewer
With so many media viewers available, the P-7000 from Epson is something of a surprise. It costs a lot more than most and is considerably bigger. About the size of the body of a traditional SLR camera, the viewer combines a 102mm (4-inch) LCD display with a 160GB hard drive and firmware to display still…
Veho – USB Negative Scanner
Most people have an old pile of negatives lying around from the heady days of film-based cameras. Some may even have the job of getting some duplicates made or turning them into photos, way down on their to-do list. Unless you have a dedicated photo printer with a suitable tray, it’s the kind of thing…
