Even if you are a computer expert, you need to protect your computer against viruses, worms and other malware to protect your data and financial security.  Anti-virus isn’t enough any more, you need what is called an Internet Security Suite to even the odds and protect yourself and your computer.   PC World did a bit more scientific review this year, testing performance instead of just comparing features.

Symantec, Kaspersky, AVG, PC Tools and Bit Defender top out the PC World list.

Symantec’s Norton Internet Security Suite the only suite to achieve a perfect score in detecting, disabling and removing malware based solely on behavioral detection. This makes Symantec your best choice in protecting your system from 0-day threats.  McAfee scored an overall distant 7th.

Found an Adobe demo video on YouTube of the HP Slate:

The HP slate is Windows 7 based, as Steve Ballmer demonstrated at CES. The HP Slate Ballmer demonstrated appears to have the Kindle software for Windows installed. The HP Slate also runs Adobe Air and Flash, the iPad does not, which means the iPad can’t display the vast majority of video content on the Internet.  If you’re using the iPad, you won’t be able to view the embedded video in this page.  The Adobe demo video also demonstrates that the HP Slate surface is multi-touch–you can use gestures. The HP Slate has multitasking capability which the iPad lacks.

For now, the Slate has yet to be released, or have a release date announced, so there aren’t any available for purchase.. yet.  But they look cool.  The iPad is slated for release April 3rd.

Gee, I really have lived long enough for those Star Trek digital pads to become a reality.
