Latest Net Reviews (6/30/03)

An extremely long list of reviews posted up over the weekend with a wide variety of products reviewed. Many people are switching from desktops to notebook systems as their sole computers, but the audio components placed in portables are generally of lower quality. DailyGame has posted a review of the Echo Indigo Mobile Sound pc card that adds high-quality audio to notebook computers. Another review of interest is a comparison of i865PE boards with "Pat" enabled by VR-Zone. If you happen to be looking for a 19" LCD monitor, be sure to check out the full listing as CNet and PC World reviewed a number of models.
