We have to write about Christmas in advance, so while everyone else is easing into the annual chaos that is the festive season, we at PC Pro have already been there, done that, roasted the editorial turkey and eaten it with all the trimmings.

Thu, 21 Jun 2007 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.pcpro.co.uk/labs/153/budget-projectors/products.html There's nothing like a projector to give focus to a meeting. A bright, colourful presentation can make your message memorable, and nowadays high-quality data projectors can be very affordable. For this Labs, we've focused on XGA projectors - that is, those with a native resolution of 1,024 x 768.

Being able to chat face-to-face is nearly always better than talking over the phone, as facial expressions and gestures add nuances to your conversation - studies have shown that up to 94 per cent of communication is non-verbal.

We've already covered a couple of them, but prices have now dropped even further to the point where you can buy a Nikon D50 with an 18-55mm lens for just £ Fri, 18 Nov 2005 00:00:00 +0000 http://www.pcpro.co.uk/labs/129/compact-digital-cameras/products.html Compact digital cameras are an essential purchase, even for semi-pro photographers.

Just when you want to capture that special moment on a family outing, your child's first steps or a stunning landscape, your camera will probably be lying unused at home.

But you'll certainly find these specifications, and even better bargains, in this month's group test.
