上一期,我们集中报道了在技术上有所突破的产品,它们获得了1997年度技术卓越奖。这一期,我们把目光转向去年的最佳产品。它们在同类产品中都是佼佼者,而且多数都获得过编辑选择奖。 但是,在我审阅这份清单时,现实使我突然感到个别产品对我们的计算生活产生的变化并不大。重要的是多种电脑产品是否能够一道工作,以及所有这些产品整合到一起后产生的结果。 这一年,我使用电脑的最大变化可能与电子邮件有关。我认识的许许多多人,不仅是我的职业同行,还有我的亲朋好友,现在都有能通过Internet进行访问的E-mail地址。
In the previous issue, we focused on technically breakthrough products that received the 1997 Technical Excellence Award. In this issue, we turn our attention to the best products of last year. They are among the best in their class, and most have won editorial choice awards. However, as I reviewed this list, the reality suddenly led me to feel that there was not much change in our product and in our calculations. It is important that a variety of computer products work together, and the result of all these products together. This year, the biggest change I use in my computer may be related to e-mail. Many people I know, not only my professional counterparts, but also my relatives and friends, now have an e-mail address that can be accessed over the Internet.
