Moore Medio review
The Medio definitely looks the part -- a Robocop of the PVR world. The chassis won't be to everyone's taste, but it looks right at home stacked on top of THX power amps. Quality components and incredible attention to detail make this a very desirable Media Center Read more

Shuttle XPC mini X 100 review
Shuttle's XPC mini X 100 is a lovely looking unit and a solid everyday machine -- it's the smallest, sleekest range the company has produced to date. Arguably the best aspect of its performance is its quiet operation. It's barely audible when idling and doesn't get much louder when running demanding applications Read more

For those on a tight budget, the HP dx5150 stands out from the abundance of cheap, ugly desktops that litter the market thanks to its promise of contemporary styling, solid build quality and quiet, efficient operation. In addition, it's a decent performer, making it very hard to ignore Read more

AJP Neo64 review
The Neo64 is an all-in-one device that bears a similarity to the Apple iMac, but it's much more than just a cheap imitation. Not only is it a semi-portable PC, but it's also a dedicated instant-on television and DVD player, which makes it a likely candidate for style-conscious multimedia enthusiasts Read more

Evesham Mini PC review
A Mac Mini clone designed to cater to the Windows crowd, the Mini PC is petite, quiet and uses Windows XP Media Center Edition, so it's perfect for your living room. You'll need to upgrade the basic hard drive and buy a tuner for full PVR functionality, and don't expect to play anything more complicated than Solitaire on it Read more
