The new Hyundai W243D is a replacement for the popular W240D. Have things got better by moving from 240 to 243?
The HannsG HH251HP is a 25'' monitor with a double HDMI entry for under £200! If you're thinking about buying a new screen soon, you can't miss this test.
Finally, we brought the Samsung P2370HD back to our lab. We updated our test procedure for televisions since we last tested it, and because it includes a HD tuner, we put it through this new challenge.

It looks like a question from a maths exam: 6.7, 6.9, 7.7, 7.9, 10.1 ... what comes next?We certainly found the answer interesting--and we're sure Microsoft will too: it's the percentage of visitors to our site using Windows 7 over the past five days.

Based on these figures, 7 is already a long way ahead of Vista. The champagne corks will be popping in Redmond already …
Even more interestingly, this rise in 7 users comes at the same time as a fall in the number of visitors using Vista. We've also recently seen a slight rise in the number of you visiting us using Apple products--thanks mostly to all of you who read our site on your iPhones, which keeps it way ahead of all other mobile platforms for the time being.
Personally, I'm still a little disappointed. I've only been using Windows 7 for a while, but I would have liked to see more changes with more simplicity in this new version, which nevertheless inherits a lot of its predecessors' traits. But, just like with our tests, you can't please everybody …
