Reviewed on October 21, 2009Apple's new 27-inch iMac will charm plenty of you with its screen size alone. Fortunately, that won't lead you astray. Behind its expansive display, Apple has packed one of the fastest all-in-ones available, and added a few useful extras to sweeten the deal. This iMac isn't perfect, but its positives far outweigh its negatives. We can think of few users to whom we wouldn't recommend this system.TAGS:Apple iMac, Apple Computer, Apple MacBook, Apple MacBook Pro, display, Intel Core 2 Duo, light-emitting diode, SD card, laptop computer
Reviewed on October 21, 2009Apple's new wireless Magic Mouse gets a sleek makeover and even has multitouch controls, but it's better as a portable laptop companion rather than a full-size desktop accessory. The swiping gestures add interactivity to Web browsing and media, but the awkwardly narrow single button design leaves us reaching for better mice from Logitech and others.TAGS:Apple Computer, mouse, Logitech, Apple iMac, Apple Mac OS X, button, battery, Apple Macintosh
Reviewed on May 1, 2008A slight bump to the specifications for the same price in addition to a much appreciated option to upgrade the graphics means the 24-inch iMac keeps the Editors' Choice it earned last year when the brushed-aluminum-and-glass design was first introduced.TAGS:Apple iMac, bus, Intel Core 2 Duo, Apple Computer, Adobe PhotoShop, Gateway Inc., 3D, Intel, CPU, PC
Reviewed on January 7, 2007HP's new TouchSmart PC IQ770 is not as fast as Apple's iMac, nor does it have the same clean-lined elegance. It makes up for those problems with intuitive touch screen software you'll actually use and a comprehensive lineup of features. If you're looking for a home PC to organize your family's schedule, or serve up media in a kitchen or another small room, we know of no other system suited so well for the task.TAGS:HP TouchSmart, touch screen, Apple iMac, stylus, HP, Microsoft Windows Vista, Apple Computer, mouse, keyboard, PC, operating system, Microsoft Windows
Reviewed on August 6, 2008In the Windows world, Logitech's diNovo edge easily beats its clunky keyboard competition. Against Apple, it stands out a bit less. The Mac Edition of the diNovo Edge is still a better keyboard overall than the iMac's default model, but not enough to justify its high price.TAGS:Logitech, keyboard, Apple iMac, Apple Computer, key, Apple Macintosh, Bluetooth, Microsoft Windows
Reviewed on March 16, 2009Even though Dell's Studio XPS-122B has the latest Intel CPU, its sparse configuration feels like a throwback. This is not to say it's slow or lacking in features, but you'll find this system has relatively few aspirations aside from serving as a standard desktop. We recommend it to anyone in need of raw computing power for an affordable price.TAGS:Velocity Micro, Dell Studio, HP Pavilion Elite, Dell, Gateway Inc., optical drive, Apple iMac, HP Pavilion, 64-bit, Apple Computer, Intel, HP
