PC Magazine's "Best Of" 2008

The crew over at PC Magazine have come up with their Best Products of 2008, featuring everything from the best in HDTV's to the best in notebooks.

Needless to say there are plenty of gadgets for us Geeks to drool over. Here is the list broke down into categories:

• Best Desktops
• Best Notebooks
• Best Media Devices
• Best Software
• Best Networking Products
• Best Cameras
• Best Phones
• Best Printers
• Best HDTVs

There are a few surprises there, software gurus will be surprised to see there are only two selections with Norton Internet Security 2009 getting a nod. The networking section is also surprisingly sparse. I was surprised to see a $4k+ Alienware laptop on the list but not the Toshiba Qosmio which features the same price tag but superior specs to the Alienware listed.
