Computer Shopper magazine and http://www.ComputerShopper.com today announced winners of its Hot 100 Awards. The awards recognize Computer Shopper editors' top 100 favorite tech products of the past 12 months in seven categories.
"Our Hot 100 awards recognize outstanding products and services that represent the best tech products you can buy," said Sean Portnoy, Executive Editor, http://www.ComputerShopper.com. "We have seen innovation on a grand scale that is shaping the trends in the tech landscape reflected in this year's winners."
The Hot 100 award winners were announced today at http://www.ComputerShopper.com/hot100 and in the November 2007 print issue of Computer Shopper magazine. Winners were chosen in the following categories: Desktops, Laptops, Mobile, Hardware, Software, Internet Services, and Home Theater. In addition, Computer Shopper editors named the Product of the Year.
This year's Hot 100 list shows the gains Hewlett-Packard has made against formerly dominant Dell in both desktops and laptops, and the absolute dominance Google commands in the field of Internet services. And for the second year running, Apple and Intel have won the Product of the Year and Technology of the Year awards, a sign that both companies have regained their clout in the computing world.
The winners of Computer Shopper magazine's 2007 Hot 100 Awards are listed below and can be found online at http://www.computershopper.com/hot100
