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

Lenovo ThinkCentre A61e review

The Lenovo ThinkCentre A61e is so green, it can be powered by the sun. With an Energy Star 4.0 compliance rating, it sports plenty of low-power components and functional innards. Its slim design allows it to be positioned in landscape or portrait orientation, making being green pretty easy Read more

ViewSonic VPC100 review

If you're looking for a cheap second PC, ViewSonic's VPC100 nettop is worth considering. It lacks a touchscreen and its performance isn't anything to get wildly excited about, but its wireless capabilities are good and it sports a relatively large 18.5-inch display Read more

Evesham ebox review

More so than any other Media Center we've tested, the Evesham ebox looks the part. Its minimalist silver fascia and slot-loading DVD drive give it living-room credentials -- but the frustrations we've experienced with other Media Centers were matched here Read more

Packard Bell Smart TV 320 review

A hybrid of television and PC designed for those who want all the advantages of Windows Media Center or Intel Viiv without the hassle of having a separate PC and TV, the Smart TV 320 isn't the sexiest telly we've seen and has some annoying design flaws, but it performs well Read more

Apple Mac mini (2.53GHz, Autumn 2009) review

The latest Mac mini looks the same as its predecessor but has a faster CPU, more RAM and a bigger hard drive, among other spec bumps. It's rather short on features compared to its Windows-based rivals, but Mac fans seeking a small machine for productivity tasks will probably be happy with it Read more

Dell Dimension 5100 review

While Dell has taken its case design in a new, more consumer-friendly, white direction, its budget PC's innards are as dependable and adequate as ever. As long as you don't expect Battlefield 2 to run smoothly on it, this is a prime piece of good-value computing Read more
