Not everyone needs this much power, but Mac pros will appreciate the extra speed the dual G5s offer. How much faster is it? Check out our benchmark test results and review to find out. (4 stars) http://eletters.pcmag.com/zd1/cts?d=81-1122-4-4-252229-104588-1 ============================================================ Work From Anywhere Like GoToMyPC, Laplink Everywhere 3.0 gives users remote access to their desktops. Unlike GoToMyPC, though, Laplink connects users to only specified desktop apps and functions like e-mail, you calendar, and file tree. Far from being a drawback, the limited connectivity makes Laplink perfect for dial-up or wireless handheld users. Find out more in our online review.

It's easy to operate, with plenty of scene select modes and other features to guide the beginner, because we're not all experts, right? Check out our review for more details and price info.
