Reviewed on October 23, 2007Dell's new XPS 420 offers almost all of the latest in PC-based digital-video capability, as well as a few unique features you won't find elsewhere. The default configuration fares poorly against the other new PCs, but if you're willing to spend money on upgrades, you can turn this system into a powerful digital-media nerve center.TAGS:Dell XPS, digital media, digital video, home network, Intel Core 2 Duo, Blu-ray, Microsoft Windows Vista, LCD, Intel, DVD, video, PC, Microsoft Windows

Reviewed on July 25, 2006For a moderate price, you get the convenience of recording your video directly to DVD media, but the entry-level Hitachi DZ-BX35A offers only basic features and can't deliver the image quality of Hitachi's step-up DVD camcorders.TAGS:camcorder, Hitachi Ltd., CCD, MiniDV, DVD, lens, camera, LCD, video
Reviewed on August 24, 2007If not for the short warranty, the Gateway FPD2275W would have taken home an Editors' Choice award for its winning design, feature set, and performance. If you can live with a one-year warranty (or spring for the extended coverage), we recommend this stellar 22-inch wide-screen LCD.TAGS:Gateway Inc., ViewSonic Corp., Blu-ray, stand, HD-DVD, USB 2.0, display, adjustment, USB, LCD, HP, port, video, monitor, DVD

Reviewed on May 12, 2006The JVC GZ-MG21 is a nice idea, but its poor video quality and irritating control scheme make conventional camcorders seem a lot more appealing.TAGS:JVC, camcorder, stick, LCD, hard drive, video, camera, DVD, battery
Reviewed on August 9, 2006The Sony Handycam DCR-DVD205 is as middling as its sibling, the DCR-DVD305; however, it eschews the impractical features of the DVD305 for a lower price tag, making it a better bargain.TAGS:Sony Handycam, Sony Corp., LCD, DVD, video

Reviewed on July 10, 2006With its wide selection of media source inputs, the Jensen VM9511TS is a high-water mark for aftermarket stereo head units. Its separate media module takes up a lot of space, and at $800, it's pricey for an off-the-shelf system. Still, it blows factory-installed options out of the water in terms of value.TAGS:Jensen, touch screen, AudioVox, Apple iPod, joystick, CD, speakers, WMA, MP3, MP3 player, connection, LCD, DVD, video
