- PCMark 2005 memory benchmark favors Intel CPUs
- PCMark 2005 memory benchmark favors Intel CPUsError?That just happens to favor the marketshare leader? The same marketshare leader that is up on antitrust violations in several places across the globe?Doesn't seem likely. But perhaps I'm too cynical.RE: PCMark 2005 memory benchmark favors Intel CPUsIt is a mistake to...

- HP Compaq Presario V5000Z
- The HP Compaq Presario V5000Z is virtually identical to the Presario V4000 with one major exception: where the V4000 can be configured with Intel's Celeron or Pentium processors, the V5000Z runs on one of two AMD processors--either the Pentium-equivalent Turion or the less expensive, Celeron-equivalent Sempron.Otherwise, the Presario V5000Z is...

- AMD Athlon 64 FX-60
- Editor's note: We've updated this First Take to reflect the fact that the systems on which we had trouble testing the FX-60 all arrived with overclocked parts. (1/11/06)Hot on the heels of Intel's second-generation dual-core Extreme Edition 955 chip comes AMD's Athlon 64 FX-60. More than just a speed bump...

- PC Club Enpower ENP680
- The PC Club Enpower ENP680's silver lid and black case could almost pass for a Dell or a Toshiba laptop, and its $1,499 price tag, which includes the latest Intel Core 2 Duo processor and a discrete Nvidia graphics card, adds to its allure. Unfortunately, the Enpower ENP680 suffers from...

- HP Pavilion dv6000t (Core 2 Duo)
- Like all the laptops in the HP Pavilion line, the dv6000's sleek design and shiny finish hold their own next to systems from style-conscious manufacturers such as Apple and Sony. Aside from its good looks, the dv6000 also provides a solid set of entertainment features and high-end components for...

- Dell Latitude D420
- Dell's business-minded Latitude notebooks have always been more about function than form, but the Latitude D420 manages to pack some decent specs into a package that is both small and attractive, making this ultraportable the smallest laptop Dell currently offers. With almost a full workday's worth of battery life, the...

- Toshiba Satellite R25-S3503
- The Toshiba Satellite R25 convertible tablet has a few things going for it: it's relatively inexpensive; it has a beautiful, 14.1-inch wide-screen display; and its long list of features includes a built-in dual-layer DVD burner. Unfortunately those advantages come at the cost of portability; the 7-pound Satellite R25 is far...

- Toshiba Satellite A105-S4074
- The Toshiba Satellite A105 is a no-frills media center laptop at a rock-bottom price. Though competing 15.4-inch wide-screen notebooks, such as the Lenovo 3000 N100, the Dell Inspiron E1505, and the Micro Express EL80, all offer either slightly better performance, better battery life, or both, they charge more for...

- HP Pavilion dv2000t
- With the release of the Pavilion dv2000, HP inaugurates a new look and feel for its Pavilion line of laptops. Departing from the familiar matte silver-and-black case, the dv2000 has sleek rounded edges, a high-gloss finish which HP says is particularly scratch resistant, and a subtle Zen wave design on...

- Acer Aspire 9800
- The Acer Aspire 9800 is one supersize laptop. Weighing 17.3 pounds without its AC adapter and featuring a 20.1-inch display, it sounds ridiculous to call the computer a laptop. Yet there it is: a screen hinged to a keyboard deck, like any other laptop--except a lot bigger. We've seen large...

- Toshiba Tecra M6-EZ6611
- Weighing 4.1 pounds with a 12.1-inch wide-screen display, the Intel Core Duo-based Toshiba Tecra M6 notebook lies on the cusp of the ultraportable and thin-and-light categories. Designed for business users, the Tecra M6 crams features we expect in a thin-and-light--such as an integrated optical drive, biometric security, and plenty...

- Systemax Epic M31E10
- Perhaps Systemax should have chosen a less, well, epic name for the 4.7-pound Epic M31E10 notebook. Like the other laptops with small, wide-screen displays we've reviewed recently, the Epic M31E10 combines elements of both ultraportable and thin-and-light laptops, hitting the sweet spot between portability and usability. As with the...

- Averatec AV7160-EC1
- Most of the 17-inch wide-screen laptops we've seen have been high-end configurations tailored to gamers or multimedia enthusiasts. The $1,199 Averatec AV7160-EC1, the top model in the company's 7100 series, eschews pricey, powerful graphics and TiVo-like DVR functionality for a simple design, a thin profile, and a light weight. It...

- Maingear X-Cube
- We don't usually get to make sweeping declarative statements, but Maingear has given us the opportunity. Its small-form-factor SFF X-Cube gaming desktop is the most advanced PC in its class. No other vendor of a pseudo-portable gaming computer offers a more up-to-date system. This $3,300 PC is by no means...

Putting the special in Special Edition are the twin SLI graphics cards, something...
