Logitech webcam C500 is a true ordinary model without any special features to be seen. But it delivers good quality and it has everything you might need a decent webcam.

A web camera is now almost standard equipment for the Internet user. Software as Skype, Windows Live Messengerand Logitech's own case lets you conduct video calls for free over the Internet, and more and more into play their own video diaries and other videos to upload to YouTube.

Logitech has a wide range of web cameras in their range, where the C500 is a new model aimed at normal users. The camera has a sensor of 1.3 megapixels and a glass lens. It has a good stand that you use to attach the camera on your monitor. This should be suitable for all flat panel displays, as well as common on laptop computers. I tested a couple of different screens. A detail of the camera worth mentioning is the built-in lens cover that can be drawn down over the lens.

The installation of the camera went smoothly proceed. You can choose whether to install Logitech's software at which you use to make video calls. This tool is good and easy to use, but it has the obvious disadvantage that there are as many users as compared to Skype and Messenger.

The software is installed, there is nothing to fault. It is high class and you can do everything you could possibly do with a webcam. You can record video with sound simple, and these are saved in WMV format.

The quality of the picture is beyond expectation to be a webcam. Logitech has equipped the C500 with RightLight technology that automatically adjusts the brightness. There are lots of filters and effects that can be applied on the image for example, make the image grainy as an old movie, or to turn you into an animated space creature that follows your movements.

With one click you can upload your recorded videos to YouTube, which is certainly appreciated by all who have a video blog.

There is no doubt about where Dell has taken his inspiration for his new desktop computer Dell Zino HD - it looks like a Mac Mini. A small and stylish machine that places on the desktop.

Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 offers complete protection of your computer in the form of antivirus, firewall, parental controls, phishing protection, so called Sandbox and everything else you could want. This without requiring too much of your computer.

When Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 launched in the Swedish version, we published a news about it and promised to come back with a test. Now I have test driven security package on a laptop with Windows 7 Ultimate and I can already tell you first that I have been happy with the security package.

As I wrote in the article on trends in the antivirus 2010 has security firms this year focused more on programs to trim down further, and that you move out much of the control of dangerous code to the cloud. This means that your security software communicates with the security company's servers to keep track of whether the programs you run or download is legitimate.

This type of solution in the cloud has become a must. The previous technique was based on signatures (virus signatures, or definition lists) but since it released today around 25,000 new unsafe code every day (Source: Symantec ) , there is no way to keep everybody abreast of new signature files. To update its antivirus once a day is no longer enough. Therefore, it is smart to take it to the cloud, and thereby obtain protection against the latest threats in real time.

Installera Kaspersky 2010

As I wrote above, I installed Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 on a laptop withWindows 7 Ultimate operating system. The computer is rather limited in its technology and contains only an Intel Pentium Mobile processor at 1.73 GHz and 1 GB of internal memory.

By running on an older machine, I think you get a more accurate picture of how the software package will really work out to ordinary people, where you rarely have a computer of top model. In addition, you see the manufacturers told the truth when they talk about their software requires little computing power.

The installation is not much to talk about. It went quickly and smoothly. The process took about fifteen minutes and then loaded including an update to the latest version of the program down. When installation was finished, I found out that the computer was protected, and then stayed Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 quietly in the background - just as you would like a security package to do.

There was a problem, and it was that I did after the installation did not come to my other computers or my NAS on the network. It is a fairly common problem after you have installed a firewall, so after changing the rights to the firewall it worked again.

Mini PCs ( netbooks as they are called in English) has become hugely popular.Statistics show that one in four computer sold today is a mini computer. Most manufacturers have at least one model in their range, and there will always more. But what should you buy? it and we'll answer in this articles.

A mini-computer is a small and neat notebook PC designed to act as a supplement to your regular computer. They are cheap to buy but they are not very good performance. The purpose of the mini-computer is that you can take it with you anywhere, and use the area are mainly Internet applications - hence the namenetbook.

Most mini-PCs run today with Windows XP operating system. Of course you can install whatever software you want, but it will not go particularly fast to run the latest version of Adobe Photoshop for example.

An ordinary minicomputer will normally have a Intel Celeron processor at 1.6 GHz, 1 GB of internal memory and either a 160GB hard drive or an SSD of 32 GB. These limits are designed to be classified as mini-computers and to help manufacturers to install more affordable versions of Windows on them. It is so, as well as Microsoft decides maxprestandan.

Purely performance-wise is different mini-computers not much. What you should look at instead is the design, the keyboard and touchpad will work for you as a user and how you think the screen is experienced. Then there are other details that could be essential. Some mini-computers have built-in 3G modem, which is handy if you have a subscription for the mobile Internet. Then mount your SIM card in your computer and you avoid the relatively bulky dongle.

To compile this list, I've taken a look at the various price comparison and testing sites, where you can see how popular the different computers. I have since added links to various reviews of the computers.

1. Samsung NC10 NC20 och

Samsung Netbook NC10 is the most popular computer on the market today, and it has been followed up by NC20. The former model NC10 is still current and works great. I have test driven the machine itself and was impressed by the almost full-sized keyboard, the screen of 10.2 inches and the pad. Samsung, unlike several competitors got a place with the mouse buttons below the plate instead of next, which is positive.Personally I do not like when the mouse buttons are located on opposite sides of the trackpad - it is cumbersome to work with.

I really liked the Samsung NC10. It is a good buy, if you are looking for an inexpensive mini-computer of this size. The computer feels solid built, and it has several advantages, with the excellent keyboard and touchpad, and not least the long battery life.

2. Acer Aspire One A150-B

The series Aspire One from Acer has a wide range of models, among which A150-B is most popular. It has a screen of 8.9 inches which is really, really good. The screen is the LED model and a high gloss, which delivers razor-sharp picture comparatively.The keyboard is very nice to write on, but the trackpad is the problem I mentioned above, the mouse buttons sit on either side. It is well to add that this is a matter of taste.

To sum it all I can say I am more than happy with my purchase, the computer arrives easily into a school bag or the inner pocket of his coat. Visually, it is really delicious and actually feels quite sturdy - unlike the Eee PC, which I think feels pretty plasticky.

3. MSI Wind U100

Mini computer from MSI has received good praise ever since it arrived. Nowadays it can be hard to come by, but as I wrote above, it is all mini computers in this segment so similar to an "older" model is not inferior to a newer - the specifications are generally the same. MSI Wind is a well-built 10-incher, which gives a good impression. It is simply a good buy.

MSI Wind U100 is recommended to those looking for a useful and handy netbook with a striking design. With the sexcelliga battery instead of the standard battery trecelliga Wind U110 is well worth the money.

4. Asus Eee PC 901

When I would buy a small laptop, I decided long and hard before I settled on the Asus Eee PC 901, but I chose Go-model, which has built-in 3G modem. Eee PC 901 is very small, with a screen of 8.9 inches and the tiny keyboard. It takes some practice to write on it but this is offset by the petite size. Bringing the computer is never a problem. Instead of a hard drive is a SSD of 20 GB on your computer. This means that it is dead silent. Battery life is up to 8 hours.

Asus Eee PC 901 is recommended as second or perhaps third, computer for anyone looking for a highly portable device with long battery life for basic tasks like surfing the web and send e-mail.

5. HP Compaq Mini 730eo

HP's Mini 730eo is the so-called consumer model, for example, the HP Mini 2140thThe computer is cheaper and you have stripped away certain things, such as a VGA port. The battery is the 3 cells, which is too little if you want to use the computer for extended periods on battery power. The keyboard is excellent but the mouse buttons sit on either side of the trackpad.

Compaq 730EO is a stripped down netbook a lack of technical excellence. But because the price tag matches the content we like it anyway. The computer is the cheapest of all the netbooks with tiotumskarm.

Nokia 3G Booklet has been a lot of attention in the media who report on minicomputers. It usually is when a known producer comes with a new computer, and especially as Nokia moving into a new market. 3G Booklet seems to be really interesting, but cost a lot.

Nokia's first mini-computer is named forthe Nokia 3G Booklet presented atNokia World 2009. 3G Booklet is a mini computer that still exist only in a test version that some have the advantage of testing. Slash Gear , for example, has written a small test on your computer. They tell us that the early version running Windows 7, which requires a portion of the right weak Intel Celeron processor at 1.6 GHz.

Nokia 3G Booklet has built-in 3G modem for those who want to connect to the Internet via mobile broadband. It is also equipped with an HDMI connector, to which you connect your computer, for example, a flat screen television. Furthermore, there is a built-in GPS , also good for those who want to take the computer away from the office.

According to the New Technology , the computer will cost at least 6000 , when they come to Sweden. It is overkill for a small laptop, even if it contains a lot of good features. An interesting detail is that Nokia has entered the battery life on 3G Booklet for up to 12 hours!

Pentax today announced its new digital SLR Pentax Kx. Like so many new SLRs are Kx built to be small and flexible, and among the features are video recording in HD quality.

The new Pentax Kx is an evolution of last year's Pentax Km. System cameras are intended for people who do not already have an SLR. According to the manufacturer goes under the category of entry-level models. Therefore, among other things pushed up the size as much as possible, then just the size has been one of the major reasons why many consumers opted to purchase compact cameras rather than SLR.

Pentax Km features a new CMOS sensor that delivers 12.4 megapixels. Quality to compete with cameras at a much higher price. Now we have not tested the camera, so this is the manufacturer's own words. In addition to taking still pictures, you can also record HD video at a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels at 24 frames per second.

Pentax Kx is of course a lot of functionality. Among other things, include anadvanced anti shake function that facilitates shooting in low light or with large zooming - situations when it comes to being a steady hand. Light View finesseallows you to see the image on the LCD screen. This is something that usually only found on compact cameras, SLRs, since generally only has an optical viewfinder.

According to news website TechRadar seems Pentax Kx come in more than black, even if not part of the press release I got sent to me.TechRadar has photos of both a red and a white Pentax Kx. Sure you can be a little poles and argue that the SLR will be the classic black, but it can not disguise the fact that the red model looks very cool ...

Pentax Kx come onto the market in October, and then have a target price of 6595 SEK, including a 18-55 mm zoom lens.

Despite a cool market, is launching the Panasonic a series of Blu-ray player , and standalone players as well as the world's first portable bluray player and finally, three home theater system with Blu-ray.

Bluray is a technique I personally do not think will survive . Plastic sheets are on the output for the benefit of Internet-based movie services, and studies have shown that typical home users are satisfied with the quality that DVDs are performing. But it will still have some movies and some players. Panasonic is one of the producers so as to keep the format, and they are launching a series of external players for home users.

DMP-BD80 and BD60 are two fairly ordinary player that can handle almost everything you would expect from a Blu-ray player for home theater. They handle 7.1 sound, has networking features and technologies to scale up the images from DVD movies.

The portable player DMP-B15 is the world's first portable bluray that lets you watch movies in 16:9 format wherever you find yourself (eg on the train or plane).

And finally, three pieces of home theater system with Blu-ray player. SC BTX70 is a 2.1 system in a slim design that is capable of delivering 7.1 sound even if there are only three speakers. SC-BT205 and SC-BT200 is a bit more advanced and In particular, support to play the movie from YouTube and view photos from Picasa.

Prices are set to between 3499 million and 9999 crowns - higher than expected, after the players presented on the CES show in January.
