Best snapshot printer
HP Photosmart 475

Best small-business workgroup laser
HP LaserJet 1320 with video
The toaster-shaped HP LaserJet 1320 pops out crunchy, dark laser text and includes a nifty duplexer that flips over your pages for two-sided printing. Small businesses hunting for a compact, zippy grayscale laser printer for Windows or Mac computers can network with either the wired- or wireless-ready models and can buy extra paper trays to handle heavy work flows.

Best best dollar-for-dollar graphics card
256MB ATI Radeon X800 XL
Not only does this $299 3D card come close to or surpass cards that cost $200 more, it also costs $100 less than its directly comparable competition from Nvidia. Its price tag is not quite high-end and not quite midrange, but regardless of how ATI might position it, this is the graphics card you should buy.

Coolest networking device
Junxion Box JB-110B with video
Though the Junxion Box is not considered a home networking device (yet), it's definitely the coolest thing we've seen all year. The bright-green box serves as a cellular router of sorts: plug in a high-speed cellular modem, and you've created a Wi-Fi hot spot! It's a logical solution for mobile work teams that travel from site to site.
