Advantages: It's not made by Microsoft. It's easy to use. Disadvantages: Not all webpages seem to load up correctly
...also get versions for Linux, OS/2, Solaris, FreeBSD, QNX and Symbian. I'm a Windows person at the moment, at least until there is a viable alternative that I don't have to concentrate on in order to use, so I went for the Opera v7 Beta 2 download. If you're at all worried about Beta versions (which are the versions available before the software is put out for general use, and therefore may contain bugs), then you're best going for v6.05, which shows on the download page as the latest stable release (Christmas is over, so although there is a stable, alas there is no manger) for Windows. However, this review is about Opera v7, so on we go, choosing a Download location of Norway (which was the closest to the UK, and therefore should be the quickest to download) and clicking the "Download Now" button to start the download of the "With Java...

Review of Opera 7
Advantages: lightweight, slim, easy to use, great pictures, impressive zoom, long battery life Disadvantages: instructions were in Japanese
...You'll have to forgive me father for I have sinned. I cannot stop giggling every time I look at the Casio Exilim EX-V7 I've had for 2 weeks. I look at it and think about the gas powered calculator I had at school that needed four heavily set blokes to move it because of its size and weight.
Launched in Vegas (baby) in January with much fanfare in the camera press I just had to get my grubby little paws on one, and when I entered a few (17) competitions to win one I was shocked when I got a text message to say that yes Mr Westonsi, you have you jammy bugger won a £270 digital camera.........................sorry, I started giggling again........................
So why did I get more turned on than a lifer on his day of release falling onto the tour bus of Girls Aloud? Well duh, its the slimest digital camera around dumbo...
Advantages: big - solid - quality - quite funky in design Disadvantages: speakers would not give a good sound for music fan
...I bought this V7 S20PD last summer for £90 or £99 i think.
I was worried a little bit that it would not bit good enough for the price that i paid. remember it's 20".
what is a surprise! it's all well -packed. guarantees, instructions. build-in pair of speakers, no dead pixels, you can adjust brightness contract, tilt, hang on the wall - very nice design by the way. I looked at some famous brands to compare. and specifications on V7 are as goods as those or even better! which is nice :-)
so if you are not addicted to particular brands get one of this.
i think it's in Germany which is also pleasing (everything comes from China this days..) and its fantastic and big!
GOOD POINTS: big 20", solid, quality, all bits and bobs that hose hold user wish for (like me!)
BAD POINTS: if you a big fan of listing music get a speaker unit...

Review of V7 S20PD
Advantages: Beautiful display, not overly large, great value Disadvantages: Cannot adjust the angle of the monitor
...I have been running the Videoseven L22WD for around 5 months now, and I must say I am very impressed.
I run the resolution at 1600x1200 and the display is crystal clear, great for playing games, watching films or TV, video or graphics editing, and can fit 2 A4 pages onscreen in Microsoft Word.
A lot of monitors about 20.1" can get very expensive. However, when I spotted this V7 for £230 at the time, I knew it was a bargain. I was completely correct. I have fallen in love with the monitor. However - beware! You could fall in love with the widescreen and never be able to go back to that small 17" ever again. I think this is the case for myself!
The only problems I have had with this monitor has been with Flight Simulator X - But this may have been something to do with my graphics card. Games such as Battlefield and Medieval Total...

Review of V7 L22WD
Advantages: Easy to use,great support Disadvantages: none so far
...Having used several anti virus programs over the last 3 to 4 years I decided to try McAfee as I had always had problems with the others.
When I purchsed v7 a few months ago I found it to be very easy to install and set up. I ran well in the back ground, occasionally giving me a warning that an email atatchment might contain a virus.
Updating the software on a regular basis couldnt be easier, the software automatically checks for updates when you are online or you can ask the program to check for these updates. If any are found it wil download and install them for you, what could be easier?
A few days ago I did have a problem with the software ( it wouldn't update ) however McAfee have an excellent help system on thier website, if you cant find the answer to your problem there you can chat with one of thier technicians vie thier...

Review of V7 L17AB
Advantages: The industry standard photo editing tool Disadvantages: The daunting price
...The jewel in Adobes crown, Photoshop is simply the most powerful piece of imaging software that there is. My love affair started with version 2, way back when, and each new incarnation has added life saving tricks to the sizeable toolbox.
Version 7 refines all the rough edges of version 6 which initially left me cold. I think the change of interface was always going to divide the followers, and after so many years of shortcutting my way to palettes and expanding tool options, to suddenly have them appear up in the top menu bar was a huge kick in the ribs. Be warned then, if you are about to upgrade from 5 or earlier, expect a little time to get used to the minor but still rather alarming change of layout.
So, that minor quibble aside, just what does Photoshop do? Well, from version 6 onwards, practically everything. Previously...
Advantages: Multifunctional program for graphic design and photo retouching Disadvantages: Expensive and complex, an overkill of capabilities for casual users
...I don't pretend to be a graphics professional. I am, however, a publications professional. My background includes experience as a book editor, technical writer, proposal manager, production manager, and general Jill-of-All-Trades in publications. Accordingly, I often have need for working with graphics--including photographs.
Fortunately, my employer provides me with a license to use Adobe Photoshop 7.0, which helps me pull out quick and appealing compositions for covers, header bars, and CD labels. Photoshop also allows me to retouch photos that are candidates for insertion into the text of my documents. More important, knowing a bit about Photoshop and how it works enables me to work more effectively with the graphics designers in my office.
In the old days, you might have said that I know just enough about Photoshop to...
