Dell XPS One preview hands-on

The latest in Dell's XPS series is the XPS One, a self-contained, all-in-one desktop PC. Looking just like a monitor without a base unit, it saves space and is almost free of cables. With an integrated hybrid TV tuner and some great design touches, will this PC compete with Apple's iMac? Read more

Mesh Elite Quad 6600 FX review

The Mesh Elite Quad 6600 FX is unbelievable value for money -- it has one of the fastest CPUs on the market, a ridiculous amount of memory and a fairly decent graphics card, all for under £700 Read more

Asus Eee PC 900 Win (Windows XP) review

Asus is aware that many people are unfamiliar with Linux, and has kindly introduced the Eee PC 900 Win to offer users the comfort of Windows XP on the Eee. Physically identical to the Linux model, it's also the first machine to support a multi-touch mouse trackpad Read more

Fujitsu Siemens Esprimo M9410 review

Fujitsu Siemens' Esprimo range is designed for business professionals who are just as likely to find themselves behind a desk as they are on a train between business meetings. The M9410 has a 14.1-inch screen, helping it achieve a good balance of portability and functionality -- we just wish it looked better Read more

LG Flatron M228WD review

The 22-inch LG Flatron M228WD aims to corner both the TV and computer display markets. It's part high-res PC display, part HD Ready television, but with a digital Freeview tuner and a wide selection of outputs, it's all desirable. Read more

Asus M70 review

If you're an avid film buff or a file hoarder with a yearning for a semi-portable venue for your media, you could do much worse than check out the Asus M70. This hefty desktop replacement might not fit in your manbag, but it boasts a stunning 1 terabyte of storage and 4GB of RAM Read more

If the thought of texture-mapped polygons, tri-linear mip-map interpolated worlds and parallax occlusion-mapped surfaces stirs your soul, then you need one of these gaming rigs Read more

Acer Aspire 1825PT review

The 11.6-inch Aspire 1825PT is a two-trick pony. You can either use it as you would a normal laptop, or you can swivel its touchscreen around and use it as an iPad-esque tablet PC. Either way, our review sample's performance proved pleasingly zippy, and it offers greater connectivity than Apple's device too Read more

Toshiba Satellite U500 review

The 13.3-inch Satellite U500 is thick and heavy, but it looks great, with an appealing brown finish. Its keyboard is very comfortable, its performance is decent, if not mind-blowing, and it's available with a touchscreen, if that's your bag. Just don't expect the best image quality in the world Read more
