Virtual WineCellar is a program that allows you to keep an accurate record of your cellar. It is suitable for both serious collectors and casual wine lovers, as the program allows you to enter as much information as you want, as well as allowing plenty of space for tasting notes, detailed ratings, and even information on your wine investments.

Unfortunately, Virtual WineCellar is uncomfortable to use and very old-fashioned. The interface is a multiple-window setup, and even though there are buttons to link between windows more easily, it's not the most user-friendly option. There are very few preference options or extras, and lots of the features mentioned on the website - such as digital label scanning - seem to be restricted in the trial version.

Virtual WineCellar doesn't make importing easy either. You can't import in the trial version, which means that you have no idea if the feature functions well, a major negative when you consider that adding your cellar is the central point of the program. If you have more than a few bottles, adding them to Virtual WineCellar in the trial version is going to be a major time-eater.

Virtual WineCellar allows for lots of detail about your wine, but is awkward to use and way behind the times.

VNC stands for Virtual Network Computing. It is remote control software which allows you to view and interact with one computer (the "server") using a simple program (the "viewer") on another computer anywhere on the Internet.

The two computers don't even have to be the same type, so for example you can use VNC to view an office Linux machine on your Windows PC at home.

VNC is freely and publicly available and is in widespread active use by millions throughout industry, academia and privately. Interact with a remote computer in a much easier fashion.

One thing there doesn't seem to be a shortage of is programs to manage your recipes. Electronic Recipe Manager is another contender to the throne, claiming to be a low-key, efficient way of managing recipes and planning meals.

On first look, Electronic Recipe Manager doesn't make much of an impact. The interface is old-fashioned and not very attractive. The program is divided into 4 main areas - Add, Search, Cabinet and Menu. These areas give you access to the recipe database, allow you to add to and maintain it, plan menus and create a virtual pantry.

The Electronic Recipe Manager is a pretty standard affair, with lots of drop-down menus and fields to fill in. it has a Storage Bin Utility, which is a window into which you can paste recipes and semi-automatically add them to your database. The search, cabinet and menu planning features are very similar - they work perfectly well but feel dated and are nothing we haven't seen before. All in all, there are a hundred programs that do the same as Electronic Recipe Manager, and lots of them actually do it better.

Electronic Recipe Manager is a very standard example of a recipe manager.

Virtual Hairstudio is a desktop app for Windows PCs that lets users preview virtual hairstyles.

Let's face it. Everyone's received a terrible haircut at some point in their lives. Virtual Hairstudio is a tool that helps you avoid such fashion fiascoes.

Marketed for hair salons, but usable by pretty much anyone, Virtual Hairstudio works a bit like a photo editing program, with preset hairstyles available to paste on a model, or even a picture of yourself. In this way, you can check out potential new looks before going under the knife -- or scissors, as it were!

Virtual Hairstudio provides hundreds of hairstyles to choose from. Each hairstyle also comes with additional information, such as a preview, identification number and description. Pick and choose the hairstyles you like, and even add the best ones to your favorites list so you can easily return to them again before your next trip to the hair stylist.

In addition, Virtual Hairstudio offers some other nice perks, like make-up advice, the ability to import your own hairstyles, and color adjustments.

The graphics could be a little better in Virtual Hairstudio. Learning how to use the program to its fullest will also pose a bit of a challenge for new users.

The demo version of Virtual Hairstudio limits users from uploading their own pictures, and only offers 20 different hairstyles to try out.

Virtual Hairstudio is a fun way to preview different hairstyles before visiting the salon.

With the free 60-day trial of Microsoft Office 2013 Professional Plus, you can test the latest version of Office before buying it.

The free trial package gives you access to Word 2013, PowerPoint 2013, Excel 2013, Outlook 2013, OneNote 2013, Access 2013 , Publisher 2013, and the Lync Messenger program.

Known uses, new features

With the new touch-optimized reading mode in Word 2013, you can skim through documents using a finger swipe. Making changes to documents has had a huge overhaul, and expanded to make editing documents easier. Microsoft Office 2013 Professional Plus also edits PDFs without the need for additional software, which makes it a direct competitor of Adobe Acrobat.

In Excel 2013, the new Flash Fill function automatically fills out a range of selected cells. Excel analyzes the entire table, detects relations between cells, and suggests a value or text. Excel also makes it easier to create pivot tables and graphics by generating suggestions in a similar fashion. The new Quick Analysis feature in Microsoft Office 2013 lets you preview certain formatting options in the spreadsheet itself.

PowerPoint 2013 splits the presenter mode into two different views for the audience and the presenter. Besides the presentation itself, you can also see a bullet list and more details on the presenter screen. On Tablets, you can switch between slides using finger gestures, paint with a stylus for a lecture on film, or use a virtual laser pointer.

In all views, Outlook 2013 brings together fade-in menus for appointments, contacts and tasks. E-mails in Outlook 2013 are now tablet friendly and can be viewed, if you want, in an optimized list view with larger areas.

Touch-optimized use and minimalist design à la Windows 8

When you use Microsoft Office 2013 Professional Plus, you'll realize that there have been some changes. The famous ribbon bar is expanded only when necessary and it's optimized for finger operation on touch screens. In addition to images, you can embed videos via HTML code in Microsoft Office 2013 Professional Plus. All of the applications come with new touch-optimized viewing modes.

Microsoft Office 2013 Professional Plus uses the same minimalist tile design as Windows 8, and everything seems to mold together well. Large, cleanly arranged icons are there for the most important functions, while new templates provide visually appealing spreadsheets and presentations.

Conclusion: improved all-round Office Suite

Microsoft Office 2013 Professional Plus comes with many useful functions, which lets it be selectively used on touch screen devices. Unfortunately, the Office Suite is anything but tablet-friendly. Many selection elements and options are too small for untrained fingers.

Other features of Microsoft Office 2013 Professional Plus are, however, far more convincing: the PDF editor offers greatly improved options for collaborative editing, there is cloud integration with Skydrive, and extras such as embedding YouTube videos, are great innovations.
