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

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

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

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

Gateway DS50 review

The Gateway DS50 desktop PC will serve you well when it comes to office tasks. Our configuration is unlikely to set your pulse racing, but it's quick and has a decent specification for the price. Read more

Asus Tytan CG8890 review

The Asus Tytan CG8890 is phenomenally powerful, looks ridiculous and costs an astounding £4,000. 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

Shuttle XPC G5 3300M review

The Shuttle XPC G5 3300M is a gaming PC in media centre clothing. We've seen its chassis with different specifications oh-so-many-times before and we love it to bits. You'll have absolutely no problem fitting it in next to your game consoles and home theatre hardware Read more
