Reviewed on June 11, 2009We cringe at the idea of recommending such a slow PC when you can get significantly better performance for just a few more dollars. That said, it's hard to argue with the eMachines EL1300G-01w's low price, clean good looks, and relatively complete budget feature set. As long as you have no ambitions for this PC performing anything resembling serious work, it will make a fine second or third home system.TAGS:eMachines Inc., HP Pavilion SlimLine, Apple Intel Mac Mini, Dell Inspiron, AMD Athlon, 32-bit, Dell, AMD, Nvidia GeForce, NVidia, HP, Apple Macintosh, PC
Reviewed on August 1, 2008Despite a few useful features, the Asus Eee Box is a novelty at best.

The appeal of Asus' Eee PC does not carry over to the Eee Box.TAGS:ASUS, Dell Studio, Apple Intel Mac Mini, optical drive, configuration, Intel, laptop computer, PC, Apple Macintosh, video, Dell

If you can find a specific reason to help you justify building a SFF PC yourself, however, the Minuet 300 will serve you well.TAGS:Antec, Apple Intel Mac Mini, Apple Computer, Apple Macintosh, PC, hard drive
