It also picked up a coveted reader award from host Nicholas Parsons - the Power Mac G5 was voted Hardware of the Year - as did Adobe, whose Creative Suite won MacUser readers' hearts in the Software category.

Adobe also picked up two further awards, as did Canon which scooped both camera gongs.

The other winners were, in no particular order, Lexmark, Microtek, LaCie, Maxon, FileMaker, Aspyr, Artis Software, Macromedia, Rogue Amoeba and MacWarehouse:
