Renovating The Office
Sure you’ve already guessed Office 12 (or Office 2007) is going to be much prettier and user-friendly and all. But here, we take an in-depth look to discover whether and why you should upgrade—when it’s out
Tech Transcends Tongues
Machine Translation is more far from perfect than you would imagine! Fun with online translators apart, here’s a look at why Machine Translation is hard, and what the most promising approach for the future is
…And You Call Yourself a Gamer?
You’re looking to buy a console. You’re hunting for must-have games for your PC. Whatever it is, here’s a compilation of the best games ever. IOHO, of course

Fandom Of The Opera
Many of you have heard the following: “Opera is the best browser out there.” Is that true? If so, why and how? We get into how using Opera can significantly enhance your browsing experience
Know More About Adobe Acrobat
Did you know you can view a Web page offline using Adobe Acrobat? Or that you could create a radio button within a document to link to another? Here’s about some lesser-known pearls Acrobat offers

The Brightest Bulbs In Town
An LCD or DLP projector? And what make and model? A projector is a serious investment, and it’s important you make the right purchase decision. Here’s a comparison test that’s sure to help you
Life @ 24 FPS
A career in animation is a much-hyped thing. Is it for you? What is it actually like? Is it about software expertise? We paint a realistic picture of the scene in India
Life In A USB Nutshell
We realised you don’t really need to wait for the advent of widespread on-demand computing: you already can carry everything you need—your data as well as your programs—on a USB stick, and compute the way you want, where you want! Here’s a guide on how to go about setting up your "USB rig," as it were
Digital Leisure
Bridging The Gap
A kiosk-based information system for villagers in Andhra Pradesh has seen tremendous response
Is Piracy Good?
No, we’re not telling you that cracking WinZip is good! We’re taking a broad view of the piracy phenomenon, and who benefits from it
Game On
Win money with TrackMania Nations, blow friends up in Crashday and cower in fear with Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth
