Check prices$349.99-$422.40Asus Eee PC 4G (white)
Reviewed on October 29, 2007 For less than $400, the Asus Eee PC 4G offers an impressive package for portable Web surfing and basic productivity, as long as you keep expectations tempered. The incredibly approachable price outweighs any shortcomings; it's a near perfect choice for a highly portable second or backup laptop. -
Check prices$1,365.00-$1,499.99HP TouchSmart IQ506
Reviewed on June 25, 2008 HP's new-and-improved TouchSmart all-in-one PC refines the touch-based concept it introduced last year. Faster all-in-ones, and Apple's iPhone, make the TouchSmart seem a bit behind the times, but the convenient software and its kitchen-friendly design offer functionality that's unavailable elsewhere. -
Check prices$1,799.89Apple MacBook (Core 2 Duo 2.16GHz, 1GB RAM, 160GB HDD, SuperDrive, black)
Reviewed on June 14, 2007 Apple's rightfully popular 13-inch MacBook gets a decent incremental upgrade, but we're still looking forward to the next version. -
Pricing not availableApple MacBook (Core 2 Duo 2.0GHz)
Reviewed on November 15, 2006 The new MacBook, updated to Intel's Core 2 Duo CPU, compares very favorably with Apple's high-end MacBook Pro line, offering premium performance at a reasonable price. -
Check prices$1,699.95-$2,699.83Apple MacBook Pro (15.4-inch 2.33GHz Intel Core 2 Duo)
Reviewed on November 3, 2006 If you've been holding off on making the leap to a MacBook because of the lack of Core 2 Duo processors, this new update adds the latest Intel CPUs and provides a great overall computing experience, albeit at a premium price. -
Check prices$499.99-$596.73Acer Aspire M5100
Reviewed on March 25, 2008 For performance-minded shoppers on a budget, the $700 quad-core Acer Aspire M5100 is fast enough to make you think about spending more than you might otherwise. If all you need is a capable PC with a decent hard drive, you can get away with a less expensive dual-core system. -
Pricing not availableeMachines T5254
Reviewed on April 21, 2008 The eMachines T5254 costs less than similar systems from Dell and HP, and it outperforms them (in some cases), and uses less power while doing so. You can't configure it before making a purchase, but eMachines has chosen this system's specs wisely, and with a level of environmental consciousness that make it a very enticing deal. -
Check prices$429.00-$899.00Apple Mac Mini Core Duo (1.83GHz)
Reviewed on October 11, 2006 The Apple Mac Mini is an unquestioned winner among budget desktops, but HP has a small-form-factor PC whose feature set will woo many would-be Mac Mini buyers. -
Pricing not availableAsus Nova P22 (black)
Reviewed on February 19, 2008 The Asus Nova P22 makes a decent attempt at competing against the Mac Mini. If you want a small form factor PC with 802.11n networking, this system is your best option. Otherwise, Asus can't compete with Apple or other Windows vendors on price, features, and performance. -
Check prices$799.00Velocity Micro Vector Campus Edition
Reviewed on July 10, 2008 As much as we like the look and feel of Velocity Micro's Vector Campus Edition desktop, we can't recommend it. It suffers from poor bang-for-the-buck, a lack of configurable options, and a narrow upgrade path. -
Pricing not availableToshiba Satellite A135-S4467
Reviewed on February 26, 2007 The Toshiba Satellite A135-S4467 is a middle-of-the-road system in every way, but it starts to look more impressive when you factor in the budget-friendly price, making it a solid choice for mainstream users. -
Pricing not availableDell Dimension 5100 (Pentium 4 3.4GHz, 256MB RAM, 80GB HDD, XP Home)
Reviewed on August 29, 2005 Dell's mainstream Dimension 5100 looks good from the outside, but surprisingly limited configuration options dampen our enthusiasm. -
Pricing not availableDell My XPS 210 Desktop Computer (Intel Core 2 Duo E4500, 320GB HDD, 2GB RAM)
Reviewed on September 14, 2006 With so many systems on the market that have planted their home-theater flags deeply in the living room rug, Dell's noncommittal XPS 210 feels too much like it's trying to please everyone. The addition of Intel's Core 2 Duo chips helps overall performance, but in general, this small-scale desktop needs more than a new brain to keep up with the competition. -
Pricing not availableDell Dimension 9100 (Pentium 4 3GHz, 512MB RAM, 160GB HDD, XP Home)
Reviewed on August 1, 2005 With a glossy white case, Dell's new-look Dimension 9100 does double duty as a versatile Media Center and a respectable gaming PC. -
Check prices$399.00Apple Mac Mini Core Duo (1.66GHz)
Reviewed on October 10, 2006 If you're looking for a pure budget desktop and aren't too worried about looks, even this new updated Mac Mini with its 1.66GHz dual-core CPU is a hard sell. But if you want a small, innocuous computer for sending or receiving media or other files between rooms, no other computer offers the deal that Apple has with this one. -
Pricing not availableToshiba Satellite M115-S1061
Reviewed on November 2, 2006 For less than $700, the retail-only Toshiba Satellite M115-S1061 is a perfectly acceptable basic productivity machine, but weak battery life makes it less than roadworthy. -
Check prices$1,899.00Fujitsu LifeBook P7230 (Core Solo 1.2GHz, 1GB RAM, 60GB HDD, Vista Business)
Reviewed on March 9, 2007 A sleek-looking ultraportable, the Fujitsu LifeBook P7230 will turn heads with its polished design, but its middling performance make it suited best for basic office tasks. -
Pricing not availableHP Pavilion Media Center A1640n (Core 2 Duo 1.86 GHz, 2 GB RAM, 250 GB HDD)
Reviewed on October 26, 2006 We have a few nitpicks about this midrange desktop from HP, but its strong core configuration overrides most of them. All this PC really needs is an inexpensive 3D graphics card, and it'll be ready for Windows Vista bliss. -
Check prices$679.79-$799.00Lenovo ThinkCentre A61e
Reviewed on October 8, 2007 Any business interested in cutting its power bills generated by its work-a-day desktop fleet might be interested in the ThinkCentre A61e, but home office workers or anyone interested in a smaller PC should stay far away from this system that has a major performance and features deficit compared to other small desktops. -
Check prices$279.95eMachines T5234
Reviewed on November 1, 2007 The eMachines T5234 is a capable if basic budget PC, but it takes a step back in performance because it uses a slower processor than the older model it replaces.
