Acer AspireRevo R3600 review
The AspireRevo R3600 is the best nettop we've seen so far, thanks to an Nvidia ION chipset that means it can play games, run 1080p movies and be taken seriously as a media centre. Also sporting a cool design, it's great value for anyone who needs a cheap second PC Read more

Apple Mac mini review
Apple's Mac mini offers plenty of power in a very small and attractive chassis. If you're after a small desktop computer or a machine to use as a home-cinema PC, the mini could be a good choice. Read more

Alienware Aurora Star Wars Edition review
Alienware's Special Edition Star Wars Aurora makes you want to yell, "Prepare to make the jump to lightspeed!" and slap the side of the chassis. Strictly for Lucas completists, this PC comes in Dark and Light Side flavours and offers blistering Nvidia GeForce-powered graphical performance for an eye-watering price Read more

Shuttle XPC M1000 review
The M1000 is one of the most painstakingly well designed desktops we've seen, and provided you don't mind its slightly retro looks, its list of features suggests it's the most complete implementation of Windows XP Media Center Edition on the market Read more

Apple iMac (27-inch, unibody, 2009) review
With a 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU, the 27-inch iMac that we reviewed doesn't offer a huge improvement in performance compared to previous models. But it's still a worthwhile upgrade, offering improved specs and features, including an LED-backlit display and 'unibody' construction, at a similar price point Read more

Dell Dimension 5150c review
One of the first desktop PCs to use Intel's Viiv platform, the Dimension 5150c offers cool, quiet operation thanks to its tiny BTX chassis. It's not just a pretty face either: it uses a dual-core CPU, has plenty of memory and comes with an optional 24-inch widescreen TFT Read more

Alienware Aurora 7500 SLI review
She's ported and relieved, and she's stroked and bored -- she'll do a hundred and forty with the top end floored. A 60s muscle car of a PC, the Alienware Aurora 7500 SLI will knock your bobby socks off. It's horribly expensive, but if you need a reliable, plug-and-play super-gaming platform, accept no substitute Read more
