I installed Norton Utilities 16 on my Windows 8 laptop and also the Windows 7 laptop that my son uses. Installation was straight forward and not hard to understand. The Windows 8 laptop is only 5 months old, so there really was not a lot to fix on it. I did not notice any change in performance. On the other hand, the Windows 7 laptop that my son uses is about 18 months old.

I am very pleased that LeapFrog seems to be developing more LeapPad games for the 3 to 5 age group. My daughter is 3 1⁄2 years old, and some of the games recommended for 4 and 5 year olds can be too challenging and frustrating for her. The main focus of this game is how things work. I really like that this is a science based game, since most seem to be based on math, reading, and writing.

I installed this on an older Windows Vista laptop that I primarily use to download music and audiobooks with. Since I don’t use the laptop often, I really don’t need bunch of fancy features with a virus or security program. Installation was fairly easy and straightforward. I’ve used AVG Free version for several years, with no problems. I decided to try this Kaspersky Anti-Virus product since it was offered to me through the Amazon Vine program.

I received this Norton Small Business 5 Device software from the Amazon Vine Review program. I do not own a business, but I do have several computers and tablets in my home, some of which are primarily used by family members who are negligent at keeping up virus protection. This Norton product schedules itself to perform PC maintenance, such as clearing of caches and temporary files, and drive optimization. Unlike some of the Norton products that I used years ago, this doesn’t overburden system resources.

If you have someone in your life just starting to get their feet wet in the wild and wooly world of the Internet - an elderly parent or aunt lets say - then McAfee’s Site Advisor Plus is exactly what the Dr. ordered to keep them protected from all the nasty, trickster sites out here. The program is very simple to install and maintains a relatively slim profiles on most basic rigs.

Because Corel Painter 11 is now considered an ‘older’ version this full-functional Illustrator program can now be had for a relative song and if you’re new to the world of digital illustration this program provides a full set of features that serves as a great starting point as you get your feet wet, all the way through your first professional submissions.
