The Bottom Line: There's quite a lot to like about Logitech's new Gaming Mouse G500, but with a competing mouse from Microsoft offering its own set of features, gamers now have some choices to make. The G500 will appeal to performance-driven shooter fans. The choice is less clear for other kinds of PC gamers.

Specs: External, PC, USB, 5700 dpi, 4 pin USB Type A, Mouse, Wired, Laser

The Bottom Line: The HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless makes a convincing inkjet argument for offices with a high volume of prints. With a function touch screen, multiple networking options, and an astoundingly fast print speed, it makes perfect sense to give this workhorse an Editors' Choice award.

Specs: Fax, Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 2400 x 4800 dpi

The Bottom Line: The Brother MFC-990CW is a speedy, fully capable all-in-one device that earns our recommendation for an individual or a family that will make use of its touch screen and telephone/answering machine. Mechanical issues notwithstanding, this is the highest-scoring Brother printer we've tested to date.

Specs: Fax, Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 1200 x 2400 dpi, Cordless handset

The Bottom Line: The Samsung SyncMaster XL2370 looks great, performs well, and hits the right price point.

The Bottom Line: The Brother MFC-3360C does decent quality text and graphics, but anyone printing a large volume of photos won't be happy with the extremely slow output speed. If you're set on buying a multifunction printer, put your $90 toward a more capable device, like the Canon Pixma MX330.

Specs: Fax, Copier, Printer, Scanner, Ink-jet, 600 x 1200 dpi, Corded handset

The Bottom Line: The Nanovision Mimo UM-720S is strictly a novelty item and not worth its price.

Specs: LCD display / TFT active matrix, 7 in - Widescreen, 800 x 480, 0.198 mm

The Bottom Line: The HP 2709m's lack of features makes it less desirable than HP's own similarly priced w2558hc.

Specs: LCD display / TFT active matrix, 27 in - Widescreen, 1920 x 1080 / 60 Hz, 0.311 mm, 3 ms

The Bottom Line: Logitech has met and surpassed Microsoft's recent mouse technology innovations by introducing the most versatile mouse sensor on the market in its new Performance Mouse MX. But even if you don't have a glass table crying out to become a workspace, this high-end input device has enough features and cushy design to make it a justifiable indulgence for anyone who takes their cursor control seriously.

Specs: External, PC, Mac, AA type, USB, 4 pin USB Type A, Mouse, Wireless, Laser

The Bottom Line: The Logitech Wireless Keyboard K350 stands out for its comfortable ergonomic touches, an easy learning curve, affordable price, and unique Unifying connection. We have minor issues with the placement of the media controls, but heavy typists will appreciate what Logitech has to offer.

Specs: External, PC, AA type, USB, 4 pin USB Type A, Keyboard, Wireless

The Bottom Line: While the EVGA InterView is expensive and doesn't offer much for the recreational user, productivity-obsessed business types will be pleased with its features.

Specs: LCD display / TFT active matrix, 17 in - Widescreen, 1440 x 900, 0.255 mm, 8 ms
