- Gateway FX541XT
- Gateway's FX541XT occupies a strange gaming PC middle ground. At $3,500, it's not in the same price category as high-end PCs such as Dell's XPS 730 H2C, but it's also about $2,000 more than the emergent $1,500 gaming desktop we've seen this year, most recently in the Maingear Prelude....

- Nikon Coolpix P80
- For megazoom shooters, the Nikon Coolpix P80's 18x zoom, 27-486mm-equivalent f/2.8-4.5 lens likely sits at the top of the list of the P80's attractions. The range provides a good combination of wide-angle and telephoto views at relatively wide maximum aperture values. Nikon supports the lens with an agreeable and functional...

- Nikon Coolpix S600
- I admit to having mixed feelings about the Nikon Coolpix S600. On one hand, it's a very attractive-looking ultracompact capable of producing pretty 10-megapixel photos. But on the other, it's a tad slow and underfeatured with an occasionally annoying interface. Nor is it priced aggressively enough ($150 or less) to...

- Apple iMac (24-inch, 2.8GHz)

But even slightly improved specifications, when they come at a lower price than those they replace, are appreciated. Last September, we tested the highest-end 24-inch model, which carried a baseline...
