The good The toughest tablet you can buy Record-breaking battery life Sensitive touchscreen Lots of ports Ambient light sensor The bad Expensive Poor performance No in-built 3G or draft N wireless Tiny HDD No optical drive Despite outdated specs, NEC's ShieldPro is still one of the best offerings in the rugged tablet niche. Design If you took a tank and a tablet notebook, and they had a child, the product would be the NEC ShieldPro N22A

The good Nice design Portable Good print speeds Good for document prints The bad Feeder tends to jam Average colour print quality Installation could be faster and easier Expensive If you need a portable printer, the Officejet H470 isn't a bad choice. If you can endure the price, then you can expect a high quality portable printer.

The good Curved, extendable antenna Screen is excellent in daylight HSDPA and AGPS Good battery life The bad Quite a big phone No mapping software installed The Country Phone will feel at home in those remote areas that struggle with mobile coverage. It makes up for an absence of bells and whistles with great performance of its essential features. Design Wiggle into those chaps and tug on your best 10-gallon hat 'cause it's time to leave the bright lights behind us and check out Telstra's latest Country Phone

The good Lightweight and thin Excellent construction SSD and internal upgrades make the MacBook Air an excellent performer The bad Non-removable battery Limited expandability Mini-DisplayPort Thin grey lines visible on screen in some models Over-sensitive trackpad in Windows If you weren't a fan of the previous MacBook Air, nothing will change your mind here.

The good Decent pricing Small form factor The bad No multifunction capability Not terribly quick print speeds You don't get blazingly fast laser speeds with the CLP-310, but it does live up to the hype of offering affordable colour laser printing in a small form factor. Design Samsung employs a number of people who are exceptionally clever with rulers, pencils, CAD and the tensile strengths of plastics and metals to produce some very nice looking electronic equipment, from televisions to mobile phones and a whole lot more besides

The good Both OS X and Windows software available Gigabit Ethernet WAN & LAN with load balancing and teaming Support for eSATA external drives USB for external drives and printers Modules offer powerful flexibility The bad Data check of hard drives shows no completion meter Check the hard disk compatibility list before purchasing, does not support all drives UI needs a usability overhaul The Thecus N5200 Pro is definitely a higher end NAS, and will benefit power users and tweakers a lot more than entry-level users. Design Straddling enthusiast and SMB, Thecus' N5200 Pro is a NAS that means business. It makes no apologies for what it is, and as such its appearance is that of a big black box, with five hot swappable hard drive trays facing the outside world and a blue-lit LCD giving status updates for network settings, drive health, and system health in general

The good Switchable dedicated/integrated graphics chips Decent keyboard Excellent battery life, especially with GeForce graphics turned off HDMI port and ExpressCard slot are useful bonuses The bad Low screen resolution won't appeal to all gamers Underpowered Intel Atom CPU is far from ideal for graphics-heavy applications, and cripples gaming performance High price You'll pay a bit more for the privilege, but the Asus N10 is unique amongst netbooks for its discrete, switchable graphics and extra ports. Almost every netbook we've seen to date has featured the same basic set-up: the Intel Atom N270 CPU, 1GB of RAM, and Windows XP. We're even seeing less difference in screen size, as most vendors have settled on a 9- or 10-inch screen

The good Excellent redundancy for reliability Very good management options Easy installation and maintenance Good warranty/support service The bad Quality does not come cheap Current Intel processors would likely give better performance The HP ProLiant DL585 G5 is a powerful server with a strong emphasis on reliability and serviceability that reduces overall device cost. A high-end server really is an engineering marvel, comparable to the great buildings of the world.

The good Solid keyboard Decent battery life The bad Overhyped gaming performance Slightly expensive Vista Business? They're certainly a colourful bunch, but underneath the bling, Fujitsu's latest range of notebooks fails to impress.
