Iomega StorCenter Pro 150D NAS review
The StorCenter Pro 150D is what you expect of a business-focused NAS device: a big boxy chassis that dwarfs its rivals, dull looks, and a noisy fan. But don’t let that put you off.

LaCie 2big network review
Encased in dull grey metal like much of LaCie’s line of larger hard-drive systems, the 2big network would sit well next one of Apple’s pro-level Macs.

Thecus N3200 review
Pitched at both home users and small businesses, the N3200 offers the best combination of price and performance. Its three-drive set-up may look odd, but it works fine.

Xara Xtreme is a fast alternative to the likes of CorelDraw. With version 4.0, it has made the leap to Windows Vista. It further improves on the previous version by expanding its photo compositing, DTP and Web offerings, and adding more live effects.

Expression Web 2 continues the design-led approach of Blend, offering a well-sized Design view for working with images and text. Full Photoshop support is a welcome addition, though imported PSD files must meet some criteria first.

By far the smallest camera in this group test, the Exlim Card S10 isn’t quite credit-card sized as the name suggests, but it’s half the thickness of most of its rivals.
-

At almost £70 less expensive than most of its rivals here – and £111 less than Canon’s Ixus 970 IS – the FinePix F50fd seems like a total bargain.
-
Nikon Coolpix P5100 review
Next to the other models we’ve looked at here, the Coolpix P5100 is a bit on the chunky side, but as the camera is actually pitched against higher-end models, it’s actually pretty small.
-
Ricoh R8 review
The R8 is an engineering marvel, cramming a whopping 7x lens into a body that’s on the larger size compared to the other group test models, but still slips into your pocket easily.
