Check prices$199.99-$209.99Acer Aspire Revo AR1600-U910H
Reviewed on October 30, 2009 Acer's Aspire Revo 1600 might be the first Nettop we don't actively dislike. We'd rather have an Xbox 360 in the living room, but the Aspire Revo 1600 would be suitable as a PC for young kids or as a low-profile cloud kiosk. Thanks to its $199 price tag, you won't feel too much remorse if it breaks or you outgrow it. -
Check prices$1,099.00Velocity Micro Edge Z30 (Intel Core i7)
Reviewed on September 10, 2009 Velocity Micro's Edge Z30 is the best deal going right now for midlevel gaming PCs featuring Intel's new Core i7 chips. The overclocked Core i7 860, a fast Nvidia graphics card, and a solid selection of features all around make it easy for us to recommend this system to anyone looking for a capable gaming desktop. -
Check prices$990.00Lenovo ThinkPad X61s
Reviewed on June 8, 2007 The ThinkPad X61s provides excellent dual-core performance in a lightweight, compact package that's still comfortable to use. -
Check prices$599.00Dell Studio 15 Laptop Computer (Intel Core 2 Duo T5850, 320GB HDD, 3GB)
Reviewed on June 26, 2008 Dell's first release from its new Studio line, the Studio 15, sits between the Inspiron and XPS lines and offers a good mix of features for the price, but we'd be tempted to save up a few extra dollars for a thinner, lighter XPS. -
Check prices$639.00-$864.99Lenovo IdeaPad U350 (4GB RAM, 320GB HDD)
Reviewed on August 17, 2009 If you're searching for a great-looking thin-and-light laptop at a good price, the Lenovo IdeaPad U350 bridges the gap between personal and professional and is worth checking out. But its design is more successful than its horsepower. -
Check prices$419.99Acer Aspire X1700-U3700A
Reviewed on February 4, 2009 The Acer X1700-U3700A is slightly slower than the competition, but it gives you almost every component you need in either a basic desktop or a light-duty home theater PC. If you prefer functionality to performance, we recommend this model out of the three systems in the current lineup. -
Check prices$941.00-$999.99Sony Vaio JS250J
Reviewed on May 7, 2009 Instead of succumbing to the latest fads, the Sony Vaio JS250J all-in-one PC stays the course pioneered by its models from last year, delivering capable performance and best-of-breed home entertainment features at a better price than its all-in-one competition. The Vaio JS250J will appeal to anyone in need of a multipurpose home PC. -
Pricing not availableHP Pavilion dv4-1465DX
Reviewed on July 31, 2009 If you're the restless type, or simply away from electrical outlets for the majority of your day, you'll love the long battery life of the HP Pavilion dv4-1465dx. Be warned: such battery life requires you to tote a laptop that's roughly a pound heavier than its 14-inch competitors. -
Check prices$569.99-$589.00Gateway LX 6810-01
Reviewed on February 13, 2009 The affordable Gateway LX6810-01 scores high points for offering high-end components right off the shelf. We recommend this system for multimedia editors and light gamers who can make use of its hard-working Nvidia 3D card and full 8GB of RAM. However, if you're looking more at straightforward performance, Dell offers a system with a faster CPU and a similar feature set for about the same price. -
Check prices$499.00Dell Studio Hybrid
Reviewed on July 28, 2008 If you're considering all of the computers in the $700 to $1,000 price range, the Dell Studio Hybrid is not very compelling. However, if you limit yourself to the very specific niche of small PCs, you'll appreciate this system's clever design and its relatively powerful hardware. -
Check prices$756.99Lenovo IdeaPad U350 (2GB RAM, 250GB HDD)
Reviewed on August 17, 2009 If you're searching for a great-looking thin-and-light laptop at a good price, the Lenovo IdeaPad U350 bridges the gap between personal and professional and is worth checking out. But its design is more successful than its horsepower. -
Check prices$627.99-$649.99Lenovo IdeaPad U350 (3GB RAM, 250GB HDD)
Reviewed on August 17, 2009 If you're searching for a great-looking thin-and-light laptop at a good price, the Lenovo IdeaPad U350 bridges the gap between personal and professional and is worth checking out. But its design is more successful than its horsepower. -
Check prices$599.00Averatec All-in-One
Reviewed on June 20, 2008 Like other Windows-based all-in-ones, Averatec's All-in-One can't compete with the iMac for sheer power. The Averatec's larger screen and few features it has that Apple doesn't might be enough to sell you, but the iMac remains the all-in-one to beat. -
Check prices$569.99Gateway DX4300-03
Reviewed on July 28, 2009 Gateway's DX4300-03 is a game attempt at a digital media hub-style PC, but the value proposition just isn't here. Slow performance in particular drags this desktop down, and unless you particularly value a TV tuner, you'll find faster, more capable computers not much farther down the retail shelf. -
Check prices$375.00-$429.99eMachines EZ1601-01
Reviewed on August 17, 2009 If you must buy a Nettop, the eMachines EZ1601-01's large screen and category-competitive components make a decent argument for its value among other systems like it. One look at a true budget desktop, or even a Netbook, and the appeal of this system diminishes quickly. -
Pricing not availableDell XPS 430-121B
Reviewed on February 10, 2009 Dell's XPS 430-121B, sold exclusively at Best Buy, outpaces the competition and carries an impressive set of media-centric features. Heavy gamers can find a more suitable system elsewhere, but digital media enthusiasts will appreciate this Dell in their home network. -
Check prices$349.99eMachines ET1810-03
Reviewed on July 31, 2009 The eMachines ET1810-03 isn't the fastest or the most attractive computer, but we can't argue with the low price, attractive design, and a complete (if not slightly barren) set of components. If you can deal with the midtower size, it will make for an excellent general purpose PC for the home. -
Check prices$629.00-$809.99Lenovo IdeaPad U350 (3GB RAM, 320GB HDD)
Reviewed on August 17, 2009 If you're searching for a great-looking thin-and-light laptop at a good price, the Lenovo IdeaPad U350 bridges the gap between personal and professional and is worth checking out. But its design is more successful than its horsepower. -
Check prices$459.97Gateway DX4200-09
Reviewed on February 27, 2009 While the Gateway might appeal to users who value storage over speed, you can find more features in PCs that cost just a little less, and more performance for just a little more. That leaves this Gateway with little to recommend it. -
Check prices$699.00Velocity Micro Edge Z-5 (Intel Core 2 Quad Q9400 Overclocked)
Reviewed on March 26, 2009 By tweaking its internal components to achieve maximum 3D performance, Velocity Micro has made its $999 Edge Z5 one of the most impressive lower-end gaming desktops we've ever seen. As long as you don't mind sacrificing a bit of productivity speed to get it, we recommend this system to any PC gamer on a budget.
