When you buy a new PC, it often ships with a trial version of anti-virus software. But how many of you have gone ahead and purchased the full version and updated the signature file since the trial subscription ran out? Remember, that while that trial version still offers some protection, it won't be able to recognize the newest threats. Fess up in the forums. http://eletters.pcmag.com/zd1/cts?d=81-1098-1-1-371668-101681-1 IN THIS ISSUE: * Review: A Sleek, Little Digital Camera * Dvorak Online: The Browser Wars Have Just Begun * Review Roundup: Managing Your Collector's Items * Tip: Can You Add/Remove Internet Explorer? * Review: New Look for Walkie-Talkie Phone * Review: Small, Zippy Network Printer ============================================================ Review: A Sleek, Little Digital Camera Nikon's new Coolpix 4200 is a metallic step up from the 4100 (a brushed aluminum case as opposed to plastic) and offers sharp pictures, a very nice ergonomic feel and a fast 3X zoom. But at roughly $400, should this near-pocket-sized shooter have more prosumer features? Read the review to see how we sort it all out. And don't miss our excellent slide show. It'll show you the camera from all sides. http://eletters.pcmag.com/zd1/cts?d=81-1098-1-1-371668-101684-1 ============================================================ Dvorak Online: The Browser Wars Have Just Begun Columnist John C. Dvorak opens a can of you-know-what on fellow columnist and PCMag.com Executive Editor Lance Ulanoff to prove, convincingly, that Ulanoff was dead wrong when he said Internet Explorer had won the browser wars. Read Dvorak's column to learn why he thinks the battle is just beginning and who is poised to win it. http://eletters.pcmag.com/zd1/cts?d=81-1098-1-1-371668-101687-1 ============================================================ Review Roundup: Managing Your Collector's Items What do Coin Collector's Assistant Plus, ComicBase 9 Archive Edition, Music Catalogue Master 4, Visual PackRat Plus, and Scanalog all have in common? They're all applications designed to help you organize and maintain large collections. Yes, they're for different kinds of collections (coins, comic books, music, etc.), but each could become as valuable to you as that 1932 S penny. Ready our review of these database-esque applications to learn which is best suited to help you keep track of your semi-precious collections. http://eletters.pcmag.com/zd1/cts?d=81-1098-1-1-371668-101690-1 ============================================================ Tip: Can You Add/Remove Internet Explorer? Think you can simply use Add/Remove programs to drop Internet Explorer from your Windows-based system? Think again. We have the simple explanation. http://eletters.pcmag.com/zd1/cts?d=81-1098-1-1-371668-101693-1 ============================================================ Review: New Look for Walkie-Talkie Phone Most Nextel phones featuring the walkie-talking function (also know as push-to-talk PTT] are not the sexiest of devices. In fact, they often look a bit more like walkie- talkies than phones. The Nextel i830 is a market departure from that trend. It's slim, elegant and bronze. The keys are a somewhat slippery and service coverage is a bit spotty, but the PTT function is still hard to beat. Read our review and see what you think of Nextel's new glam direction. http://eletters.pcmag.com/zd1/cts?d=81-1098-1-1-371668-101696-1 ============================================================ Review: Small, Zippy Network Printer Small businesses looking for a network-ready, small footprint, monochrome printer could be satisfied with the new OKI B4350n. At $500, printer is light enough (at 22 pounds) to move around the office, but powerful enough to produce excellent black and white documents at surprisingly zippy speeds. But does the price add up to an excellent value for a small business? Our review has the answer. http://eletters.pcmag.com/zd1/cts?d=81-1098-1-1-371668-101699-1 ============================================================ The PCMag.com Bookstore PC Magazine's Windows XP Solutions Ever wish they'd consulted you before they designed Windows XP?
