Being a professional graphic designer and illustrator, I am always leery of software that claims to allow anyone with a computer the ability to produce quality graphics quickly and easily. SmartDraw is just such a piece of software. Its proud claim that "anyone can create great-looking business graphics of all kinds in minutes, not hours" was an assertion I couldn't help but put to the test.
You may download a free trial version of SmartDraw 2008 from the TechRepublic software library. System requirements are IBM-compatible PC with Windows Vista, XP or 2000, 256MB RAM, and (preferably) 3GB free hard disk space.
Read a concise summary of SmartDraw's strengths and weaknesses in this blog post.

Am I the only one who hates these image galleries?
In a world of Ajax and other technologies, I find the photo galleries on this site to be rather painful. Surely, it must be possible to move to the next image and description without reloading the whole page.
Or, how about having all of the thumbnails and their descriptions, all laid out on one page? I have no interest in seeing all of the screens of a setup unless there's something of particular interest that the author wants to point out.
Hm. Maybe it's time to do a "Right Tool" review on these photo galleries?
