There were a few glitches in the rendering of Windows 7 virtual machines, but not enough to spoil the essential operation of this powerful package. We’ll cover the new Parallels 5 in a forthcoming review to see how the two options now compare. In the meantime, we found that in Fusion 3, VMware has made some notable and useful improvements over its predecessor, adding a some extra speed, along with the key upgrade in the appearance of Windows Vista and later Microsoft OSes.

The Iomega eGo BlackBelt has increased in size and speed in its new incarnation, as well as dropping in price. It may have abandoned the classic metal hipflask extrusion, but the new eGo design still feels like it could stand a few knocks, aided by the rubber band that encircles it.

Apacer's affordable 64GB solid-state drive isn't the fastest on the market, but it can match the big boys when it comes to reading data. Frugal power consumption and good read speeds mean this SSD is better suited for overnight backups or as a secondary drive than for tasks involving disk-intensive operations or lots of simultaneous reading and writing of data.

We wouldn’t recommend Astone's portable hard drive for people who will be commuting with it every day, or for people who have a tendency to drop things. However, with a design to rival Apple products and quick file transfer speeds, it is a stylish way to carry around your data and media.

We like the Kingston SSDNow V+ solid-state drive — it's efficient, quick and quite cheap. If you're looking to replace your notebook or PC's system drive, this is definitely a viable candidate.

The Sun Fire X2270 is an impressive entry into the Nehalem-based server market. Sun's x64-based hardware has been superlative for the past few years, and these new servers are the latest in a line of solid server platforms. Leveraging the surprising power of the Nehalem architecture, the Sun Fire X2270 should find a home just about anywhere — assuming that Oracle's acquisition of Sun doesn't rock the boat.
