As usual, this duo has come up with a well written guide. The information is presented in understandable language without dumbing it down, a nice accomplishment. They are up front about not having tested everything there is, no one could, and disclose their bias - and then present enough background and explanation so that the reader can apply it to items not tested and new releases. This is such a fast moving market that it's virtually impossible to keep up with the releases of new products, but they've made a valiant effort, and, more importantly, continued their tradition of maintaining a web site with up to date supplemental information. But their biggest contribution remains being readable, my wife can follow and understand most of it, which takes a big load off of me trying to explain the how and why of my hardware recommendations and decisions. Highly recommended, by me.
