Reviewed on June 29, 2010On first inspection the HP TouchSmart 300-1120 seems like a capable enough all-in-one, but it loses a lot of appeal once you compare it with others on the market. If you want an all-in-one PC for the kitchen counter, this system may work for you. For general computing or home entertainment needs, you can find several other all-in-ones with better features for the price.TAGS:HP TouchSmart, Gateway Inc., Acer Aspire, Gigabit Ethernet, HP, 64-bit, Windows 7, Acer Inc., Ethernet, laptop computer, hard drive, PC, Microsoft Windows
Reviewed on April 7, 2010Don't let the Gateway FX6831-01's case distract you from the fact that this is a fast, aggressively priced gaming PC with some standout features. We wouldn't recommend this system to a generalist consumer or those with discriminating opinions about hardware aesthetics, but for the pennywise gamer, this Gateway is the midrange desktop to beat.TAGS:Gateway Inc., tray, wireless networking, networking, Dell, Radeon, design, 64-bit, games, video card, hard drive, PC, HP, operating system
Reviewed on March 11, 2010A midtower PC with a Blu-ray drive isn't for everyone, especially if that option requires you to make sacrifices elsewhere. Fortunately, HP's Pavilion Elite HPE-112y strikes the right balance between its features and performance, such that the niche customers interested in a desktop with Blu-ray won't feel like they're giving up too much.TAGS:HP Pavilion Elite, Blu-ray drive, HP Pavilion, Blu-ray, burner, HP, Dell, 64-bit, video card, Dell Inspiron, networking, AMD, hard drive
