Apple's Potent Penryn Laptop
The Intel Penryn refresh for Apple's MacBook Pro doesn’t disappoint. It delivers more battery life (by 15 percent, to be exact) and better performance scores, and is the lightest (and possibly the sexiest) 15-inch laptop on the market. All told, this laptop does well to maintain the Pro's seat as the PC Mag Editors' Choice for mainstream laptops.
Capture Notes in Real Time
Need more than just a mouse? The Iogear Digital Scribe is a useful companion for presentations and adds tablet-like functionality to any PC. This digital pen works on all types of paper, includes handwriting recognition software, and doubles as a mouse. See how it works in our hands-on review.
Brother's Zippy SOHO Laser AIO
The Brother MFC-9440CN color laser printer is the epitome of all-in-one: It offers printing, standalone copier and fax, and scanning and faxing to and from PCs over a network in a single package. This multi-function machine may fall a little short on print quality but, if you're not picky, it's poised to handle all of your home or small office needs. Visit PCMag.com for the review.
Samsung's Ace Isn't High
The world needs more CDMA/GSM combo phones to let Sprint and Verizon users roam internationally. If the Samsung Ace were a little faster or more polished, it could be a killer option for globe-trotting Sprint users. But as it is, there are better options for Sprint users both at home and abroad. Find out why it fell short of the mark on PCMag.com.
Our Favorite File-and-Folder Backup Tools
Are you the type who backs up your precious data once a year, whether it needs it or not? Limiting your backup process to every 12 months is just courting disaster. Use one of these backup apps and eliminate the risk of losing a year’s worth--or possibly years’ worth--of pictures, docs, and e-mails. Read all the reviews on PCMag.com.
Three Steps to the Paperless Office
Going green is about a lot more than turning off your computer monitor when you leave for the day and picking more eco-friendly technology for the office. Paper waste takes its toll, too. Think of how much regular copy paper your business uses on a daily basis. But how can you cut back? Here's where to start.
