Review Roundup: T-Mobile's First 3G Phones
For three years now AT&T, Sprint, and Verizon have been trying to define 3G—third-generation cell phone services—as something consumers want. Now, finally, T-Mobile is entering the fray with four phones. But is T-Mobile's 3G play ready? Read all the reviews on PCMag.com to find out.
Feature: The Definitive Guide to Wi-Fi
In this wired world, staying connected at all times should be easy. That's because Wi-Fi is not limited just to your home network and your local coffee shop any more. Our ultimate wireless guide gives you tips on finding, using, and creating mobile hot spots anywhere you go.
Project: How to Build a Home Server
As your home network grows, common solutions like routers and access points may no longer be enough to handle the amount of data your family has to work with. There's no need to shell out a bunch of money on a home server, though. We have your simple step-by-step guide to building and configuring your own machine.
Review: A Muscular Home PC
If you need (or want) a central home PC with a bit of extra oomph, you might want to consider the Velocity Micro Edge E2250. This machine will treat your kids (adult or otherwise) to a pretty hot system upgrade: It's got a gaming-class graphics card, a large hard drive, and overclocked quad-core power. Get all the specs and price in the full PCMag.com review.
Bargain Hunt: LCD Monitors
There's one thing that sits at the center of any great desktop setup--especially any setup that you'll be using as a media center—and that’s a sharp, new monitor. How does a whopping (and inexpensive) LCD sound? Pretty darn good, right? These four 20-plus-inchers will have you parked in front of your newly renovated PC for hours.
Ulanoff: John McCain Can't Read This Column
John McCain, the oldest presidential candidate this nation has ever had, has now proven, by his own admission, that he's not tech savvy enough to run this country. Does that make you nervous? Because Lance Ulanoff sure thinks it should. Read his column on PCMag.com for more analysis.
