2008 ZDNet Holiday Gift Guide

Lists … if there’s one thing that people seem to what at this time of year it’s lists. Over the next few weeks I’ve planned on posting several kit lists for the Holiday season covering a wide variety of different kit.

To kick off the lists, I thought I’d start by getting the big numbers out of the way first and look at high-end hardware! The top-end, sky’s the limit stuff that, if nothing else, is cool to look at and fantasize about (and in a few months be able to pick up for a middle-of-the-road price!).

NOTE: Each time I come out with a list of kit I always end up fielding a few emails and comments from people wondering if companies have “bought” space on the list. Let me tell you now that the only way for a product to get on this list is to be the best - period. Manufacturers, vendors and PR companies have zero influence over this or any other recommendation that I make.
