Samsung U250 review
The U250 is a handsome all-in-one PC with a responsive, 23-inch touchscreen. It doesn't offer as many features as some rival machines, but it could fit the bill if you're looking for a stylish, space-saving PC, and aren't concerned about having mind-melting performance Read more

Apple Mac mini 2010 review
The new Apple Mac mini is more expensive than ever, but it's also more attractive, more powerful and more capable. If you can afford one, it'll make a fabulous all-round machine, and it'll also turn your fellow nerds green with envy, which isn't something to be sniffed at Read more

Advent MT22 review
If you don't have enough room in your flat or student pad for a TV, Freeview PVR, monitor and PC, this all in one computer from Advent is a handy and affordable solution. Its innards might not be powerful enough for epic gaming, but its nifty touch interface and usable Windows Media Centre software make it very versatile Read more

Medion Akoya P4011 D review
The 21.5-inch Akoya P4011 D is a decent all-in-one PC at an affordable price. Its performance won't induce nosebleeds, but its multi-touch capability is well implemented, its screen is excellent, it offers loads of storage space, and it lets you watch and record live TV Read more

Asus Eee Box B206 review
The Eee Box B206 is a tiny media-centre PC that can be easily bolted onto the back of a display, turning a TV or monitor into an all-in-one-style PC. Its performance with high-definition video isn't great, but undemanding users seeking a simple box to view media and surf the Web on their TV should check it out Read more

HP TouchSmart IQ810 review
Like its predecessors, the HP TouchSmart IQ810's major selling points are its touch-sensitive display, small footprint and strong multimedia capability. The IQ810 stands out, however, thanks to even faster components and a comparatively large 25.5-inch screen Read more

Dell Studio Hybrid review
While there are a plethora of nettops on the market that offer -- at a basic level -- the same sort of package performance as the Dell Studio Hybrid, they are not as customiseable. You can alter the Studio Hybrid both internally and externally according to your personal preferences. The icing on the cake? It is eco-friendly Read more

Shuttle x27D review
The X27D is the fastest nettop-style machine we've ever tested. Its dual-core Atom 330 CPU makes it a far more robust solution than PCs such as the Eee Box. It's a little too noisy for our liking, but it's affordable, attractive and perfect for lightweight computing tasks like surfing the Web or watching digital movies Read more

Eee Top review
The Eee Top is a strange departure from traditional Eee-branded products. This low-power, low-cost, all-in-one desktop PC features a touch-sensitive display, setting it apart from its rivals. Though Asus ships the Eee Top with Windows XP, it's conveniently put it in Large Fonts mode, making the touchscreen easier to use Read more

Asus Eee Box review
Asus has performed a minor miracle in the laptop market with its Eee PC, so it stands to reason that it would try the same trick in the desktop arena. The Eee Box is tiny, attractive, requires little power to run, and most importantly it costs just £199 Read more
