Product Reviews

Don't let that download size put the dial-up users among you off - it's well worth the wait. I've long been a fan of Acronis utilities, and favour its PartitionExpert software - which is included on this month's cover disc - over the industry-standard PowerQuest PartitionMagic. Its supreme ease of use and seamless ability to repartition without leaving Windows, and without losing data, is a major plus point.

Now Acronis has wrapped this partitioning tool up in a package that also includes an equally efficient and intuitive boot manager, which supports up to a hundred OS installations on a single PC, a disk editor, which works from any bootable media, and an easy-to-use partition recovery application. If you've been looking for advanced disk management, coupled with a truly intuitive interface, the search is over.
