BlackBerrys for Everyone
RIM devotees or those who are thinking about converting to the popular smartphone line may perhaps feel a bit daunted by the sheer number of BlackBerry handsets on the market. And while summer may bring the new BlackBerry Bold to AT&T, there are stellar BlackBerrys you can get right now for each major carrier. Read all our reviews to pick yours.
Lenovo's Fast, Power-Saving Biz PC
The Lenovo ThinkCentre M57p eco is a green corporate PC. It's got a few more features than most small-business PCs, making it a good choice for the corporate IT infrastructure and (possibly) small businesses. All told, this desktop does a lot to live up to Lenovo's stellar reputation and its earth-friendly moniker, earning it four stars and our GreenTech Approved seal.
Redemption for UMPCs
Due to early flops, the Ultra-Mobile PC (UMPC) started out with a bad rap. But powerful new models, including the HP Mini-Note and Asus Eee PC, are going a long way to remedy that. Check out seven of our favorite ultra-mobile and super-affordable PCs in this review roundup.
Are Low-Cost Laptops for Real?
According to Tim Bajarin, PC vendors don't know what to make of the unexpected success of ASUS's low-priced Eee PC and now are scrambling to create their own "Eee PC killers." As they try to one-up each other, the face of the low-cost laptop market is changing rapidly for consumers as well. Read the full column for more.
Quick Take on Project 2007
Many small businesses ignore them, but Microsoft last year released a whole family of server-side products that seriously bolster what organizations can do with Office 2007. Head over to @Work for a complete, point-by-point walkthrough of the products, how they work, and what they do.
Security Watch: Remote Execution Bug in Skype
All releases of the Windows Skype client prior to and including 3.8.*.115 are vulnerable to a bug that could lead to execution of code already on the user's system. Version 3.8.0.139 has been released to address the problem. Learn more about the bug and its effects on PCs on Security Watch.
