- AVADirect Nano Cube
- AVADirect's $2,266 Nano Cube tries to take on Shuttle's XPC H7 5800 at its own small form factor game. Both systems come with smaller-than-normal SFF cases, and each requires sacrifices, even more than with a standard SFF PC, in exchange for its tiny dimensions. Therein lies our problem with this...

- Averatec D1130 All-in-One
- The Averatec D1130 All-In-One is a stripped-down version of the D1133 we reviewed last month, and while this version cuts the price down to only $399, it also strips away many of the features that gave the higher-end model some value. With its puny 1.6GHz Intel Atom chip, 1GB of...

- Acer Aspire Revo AR1600-U910H
- Typically our challenges with the emergent Nettop category have been that real budget PCs cost just a little bit more and provide a dramatic performance uptick, and similarly priced Netbooks offer equivalent performance with the added benefit of portability. The Aspire Revo 1600's price tag alone answers those issues. ...

- Microsoft's Windows 7 challenge: Selling Live services (without being sued)
- What competitors?Other than iLife, who is competing with Live Essentials?These seem like little trivial programs to be fighting over. Besides the people complaining about bloat (Even though these programs don't take up much space), I don't think anyone would complain even if they were included in Windows to begin with.The...

- TP-Link TL-WR741ND Wireless Lite N Router
- At less than $40, the TP-Link TL-WR741ND Wireless Lite N Router is among the cheapest 802.11n routers, if not the cheapest, you can find on the market. It's also the first we've reviewed that supports the single-stream standard and therefore caps at only 150Mbps hence the Lite designation. Other Wireless-N...

- Apple iMac 27-inch
- If we could, we'd take points away from this iMac simply because by giving it a 27-inch display Apple threatens our livelihood. You don't need our input to simply walk past the 27-inch iMac on a store shelf and recognize that it's the largest all-in-one currently available, and that it...

- Nvidia wants us to tell you that its GeForce 9400M graphics chip, aka Nvidia's Ion technology, pulls Asus' Eee Top ET2002 up from the depths of Nettop misery by imparting it with better-than-terrible graphics and video processing. We agree that the 9400 chip improves the ET2002's visual chops, but a...
