First there's Vista Home Basic which, like all the versions of Vista, has your basic digital media features like Windows Photo Gallery, but it doesn't do Aero. You get Windows Flip, but no 3D and no live taskbar thumbnails. If that stuff means nothing to you, go with it. Second there's Vista Home Premium. Add Flip 3D and Aero to the version above and the availability to do scheduled backups. Also you get Windows Media Player, which you don't get with Home Basic.

[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-04-08 Summary: I'm Pretty Impressed, So There You Go 5 Stars ... I've been using Vista with SP1 for a couple weeks now on two different computers, my MacBook Pro and my iMac, both running on Bootcamp partitions and I have to say I'm pretty darned impressed. I have lots of ram, ram to spare in both my machines, as I'm a Photoshop girl and both my machines are the latest and greatest Apple has to off, so I was good to go as far as hardware was concerned. I had no problems running the Aero eye candy and though it's no Leopard, it's quite nice. I liked the transparent window frames ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-04-27 Summary: Business cards easy to separate from sheet ... Overall, this is a good product. I especially liked that it was easy to separate the business cards from the sheet with clear separation and not really fuzzy edges. There were quite a few templates available online, but I opted to use the Microsoft Word template. Formatting so that the spacing on the edges looked nice required some work and trial/error, but these business cards printed out well at the end. ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2007-10-17 Summary: Professional looking/inexpensive option for in-house business cards ... Our company has currently adopted this brand for our business cards. The color is white, the paper accepts the ink well, and the cards separate cleanly. The linen adds a nice texture so it doesn't look like simply card stock. I wish it was a little thicker though. The final product is almost as good as something from an expensive printing service. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-07-15 Summary: High quality and professional look & feel ... Very impressed with the quality. Those given cards commented on how much they looked like professionally produced business cards. The reviews indicating ink bleeding and texture on only one side are likely for an old version of the product. My ink jet (Canon Pixma MP970) produced very clear and fine fonts in color. The cards are textured on both sides and can be printed on both sides. ...more

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-09-30 Summary: Best Card Scanner I've Used ... I have had other card readers in the past (I usually bought the cheapest one I could find), but when my second card scanner bit the dust, a friend recommended the CardScan. The price was a little higher than the ones I have purchased in the past, but in this case it is true, you get what you pay for. The interface is very intuitive and easy to learn. It is small and easy to pack (I travel a lot) and reads the cards with out error. I highly recommend this device and will recommend it to everyone. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-09-11 Summary: Best Organizing Tool and Best Investment ... I used IRIS CardPro on Win XP but I upgraded to Vista Business and thus had to use CardPro on Virtual PC or buy a new card management software/scanner. As I already have a file that contains more than 1,000 contacts, I was reluctant to buy a new one due to the initial switching cost. However, I was not satisfied with the IRIS product and bought this one. I have to say that this produuct is working much better than I thought. Scan speed is faster and sequential read process is very efficient. Software is not perfect ...more

[5] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-09-16 Summary: CardScan Executive v8 ... I bought the product based on reviews already with Amazon. I am not disappointed. The set up is a breeze and the performance is good. There were some hitches in recognizing the letters in a smaller font. All in all, I am very happy with the integration with MS Outlook and the fact that I don't have to key in all the contact details laboriously myself. I am yet to use all the features, but I managed to load, edit and verify about 200 cards in about 3 hours time. I look forward to working with this more and discovering ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-10-15 Summary: Great scanner for the price ... The CardScan V8 is a quick and reliable scanner for a reasonable price. I had 500 + business cards that needed to be uploaded into Outlook. This scanner made an easy job of it. I uploaded the entire stack and then approved them in batches throughout the week. Easy interface with Outlook which identifies and resolves duplicates(!). I liked the ability to scan the reverse of the card, particularly important with international business clients that may print the reverse of the card with local information in their working ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-10-21 Summary: Card -- just what they promised ... I had my doubts about character recognition software but the scanner did exceptionally well. I had a big backlog of cards from the U.S. and 4 different countries to add into my outlook contacts files so I took a chance on the V8 card scanner. It not only read and accurately entered information from a wide variety of type faces, it even got most of the address information for countries as diverse as Brazil, Korea, and China. I have to do very little correcting. I am very pleased with this scanner, I wonder if they have ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-11-26 Summary: adequate ... The CardScan works as advertised however the interface with OUTLOOK could be more seamless. The device is capable of scanning unusually formatted cards and still get 90% of the information correct. The need to use the interface to synchronize i.e. export to OUTLOOK is somewhat cumbersome though the software allows batch processing. ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-08-15 Summary: Good product ... Overall, this product is worth the price. It is heavy and thus feels sturdy, but not too heavy. The only two downsides that I have found are the hinge, as everyone else mentioned (but it also feels pretty sturdy). My main complaint about this product was the inside walls. If you have glossy business cards like I do, instead of normal stock card cards, you might have the same problem I have found myself having - rubbing. The first and last cards stored have shown a little wear on their outside faces due to the metal ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-04-22 Summary: Good Sturdy Handsome Holder ... I have bought three of these, one as a gift. I had previously acquired a cheaper business card holder that over time was damaged in my pocket. This stainless steel one seems sturdy. The unusual method of opening has not yet broken (although I am a bit wary over time). The company seems to specialize in various steel devices. The number of cards it holds seems generous compared to a gold-plated traditional holder I have. I'll admit it's a bit severe-looking compared to a gold or silver plated traditional holder, but ...more
