Olympus SH-21
The Olympus SH-21 compact digital camera is all about style and performance, with the manufacturer packing as many features as possible into a relatively slim casing, while still managing to make the camera look cool in a crowd.

Epson AcuLaser M2300D
The Epson AcuLaser M2300 series of mono laser printers is aimed at small businesses with modest printing needs. The entry-level M2300D is stripped to its bare essentials. It’s compact but efficient: a squat, grey and cream square-shaped box measuring a discreet 378x390x255mm (wdh) that still manages to weigh a reassuringly chunky 11.5kg out of the…
