Windows doesn't have any features or software that can handle these needs. That's where Ashampoo's Snap, recently updated to version 7, comes in. This software promises to provide a simple, all-in-one solution for desktop image and video capture. You'll have to pay $19.99 for the full version, however,...

Sometimes during the hangover season sales show up with steeper discounts than the loss leaders during the holiday season. From now and throughout much of January, you can get excellent deals.
