HP TouchSmart IQ770 review

The TouchSmart IQ770's touchscreen is ideal for scribbling text notes for your family, and its upright, all-in-one design lets you position it in rooms where a desktop PC and monitor aren't appropriate. But is a kitchen Media Center PC a ridiculous concept? Read more

Evesham Solar Storm review

The Vista-equipped Solar Storm is available for £999, which might seem like a big wodge for a PC nowadays, but you get what you pay for -- a gorgeous 20-inch widescreen monitor, capacious storage and strong multimedia capabilities 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

Advent Eco PC review

With petrol prices skyrocketing, there's no question: the cost of powering your electrical goods is getting higher and higher, too. Advent has released its Eco PC, a desktop computer that uses just 25W when idle. It comes in recycled packaging and has a few other features to help it run more efficiently, but it isn't cheap Read more

HP TouchSmart IQ500 review

We didn't think the original TouchSmart IQ770 was that ugly, but compared to HP's brand-new IQ500 series it's a total dog. The IQ500 has a bigger screen -- 22 inches instead of 19 -- has a better spec, and sports the same touch-sensitive panel that intrigued us about the original Read more

Advent AIO-101 review

It's not as pant-wettingly sexy as an Apple iMac, but the AIO-101 is an attractive and versatile all-in-one PC nonetheless. With a built-in hybrid TV tuner, highly adjustable 18.4-inch display, and decent, but not outstanding, performance, it's a good option for those seeking a space-saving PC Read more

Dell Studio One 19 review

The 18.5-inch Studio One 19 brings some good ideas to the all-in-one-PC table, including an optional touchscreen. We're not massive fans of its appearance, but, if you're looking for a desktop PC that takes up relatively little space, is easy to set up and reduces cable clutter, it's well worth a look Read more

HP Pavilion Elite m9000 series (m9065.uk-a) review

HP is ploughing ahead with another family-friendly PC in the Pavilion Elite m9000 series. It's designed to be a good all-rounder, with 3GB of RAM and a 320GB of memory. It's good for any task and particularly fares well as a Media Center. Fit it into the living room and gather the family Read more
