| The Good |
A great Diablo clone, pets perform menial tasks for you |
| The Bad |
Can be a huge timesink, not a lot of variety, not as feature-rich as the PC version. |
| The Verdict | Fans of Diablo and its derivatives will find a lot of fun to be had in Torchlight's endless dungeons. |

| The Good |
As simple as networking gets; good throughput |
| The Bad |
If it doesn't work on a particular power point it never will; plugs are huge. |
| The Verdict | Cheaper than tearing up the floorboards to put in dedicated wiring and more reliable than wireless. The only thing not to like about the Powerline HD product is the size of the plugs and the price. |

| The Good | Bundle with PC version provides a dual level of security |
| The Bad | Scanning engine currently badly flawed |
| The Verdict | AntiVirus for Mac is a contentious issue, but packages that work as poorly at BitDefender currently does will not change the status quo. |

| The Good | Intense strategy meets high space opera, lengthy single player campaign, almost limitless multiplayer strategy. |
| The Bad | Not terribly friendly to new players, graphical glitches in Mac version. |
| The Verdict | Who said the Mac has no great games? StarCraft II: Wings Of Liberty is engaging high speed strategy with addiction at its very core. |

| The Good | Brings multitouch gestures to an ergonomic, external device; adds touch functionality to desktop Macs. |
| The Bad | Only works on the latest OS; could stand to be a little cheaper. |
| The Verdict | As more users pick up iPads and MacBooks and the like, we're becoming more used to literal "point and click" interfaces. The mouse is tied to a computing paradigm that is on its way out for many people, and the Magic Trackpad is a bit of the future. |

| The Good | Very easy to set up; provides access to "real" applications from iPad |
| The Bad | Lack of audio; performance suffers over slow networks; rotation bug still not fixed |
| The Verdict | iTeleport lends your iPad the capabilities of a much larger computer. Anyone who wants to use the iPad as more than a nifty toy should have it. |

| The Good | Adds genuine zoom to the iPhone, relatively portable, easy to use tripod |
| The Bad | Zoom focus fights with iPhone focus, not iPhone 4 compatible |
| The Verdict | While not up to the quality of a "pro" Zoom lens, the iPhone zoom lens adds creative flexibility to iPhone photography that some will find compelling |

| The Good | Inexpensive comics, very easy to read on the iPad, smooth panel scrolling, supports multiple devices simultaneously, plenty of free content |
| The Bad | Can't cut out the pictures and stick them to the fridge |
| The Verdict | Comics fans rejoice. There's an even better reason to buy an iPad than simple boring books, and this is it |

| The Bad | Nothing to hold iPad on keyboard, no landscape option |
| The Verdict | If you need faster or more accurate typing and a stand in one, it's hard to overlook the iPad Keyboard Dock |
