eMachines T5212

Our go-to pick for a true budget PC this summer has been the Cyberpower Back to School 2006. It delivers a dual-core CPU and 1GB of memory for $599; it'll burn DVDs; and Windows Vista, with its Aero effects, should give it little trouble, thanks to the discrete graphics card....

HP Compaq Presario Media Center SR2050NX PC

Six hundred nine dollars is too much to pay for a PC that uses a first-generation Intel dual-core CPU. Even after you mail in the $50 rebate, you're still paying too much for the HP Compaq Presario Media Center SR2050NX. CompUSA has it for a more reasonable $399 (after a...

HP Pavilion Slimline s7600e

HP's Slimline Pavilion s7600e has a major advantage over previous incarnations of HP's small-form-factor design: a dual-core CPU. Thanks to AMD's new line of energy-efficient Athlon 64 X2 chips, HP can now compete with the Mac Mini as a powerful, feature-rich tiny PC. The Mac Mini has a size and...

Apple Mac Mini Core Duo (1.83GHz)

Lost among the news of the emergence of the Intel-based Mac Pro and the iMac getting a boost with new Intel Core 2 Duo CPUs was the Mac Mini receiving a CPU jolt of its own. The low-end $599 model tossed aside its Core Solo processor for a Core Duo,...

Apple Mac Mini Core Duo (1.66GHz)

Given its price, Apple's most basic Mac Mini config (recently updated to a dual-core 1.66GHz Intel Core Duo CPU) belongs squarely in the budget category, but Apple's entry-level desktop is far from your typical budget PC. For comparison, we've included the Cyberpower Back to School 2006, and the eMachines T5212...

eMachines T5048

Here's what we like about the $400 (after $50 mail-in rebate) eMachines T5048: it has a DVD burner and a media card reader, and its 160GB hard drive offers more storage room than we expected. Compare this model to HP's $400 Compaq Presario SR1910NX, and this latest member of the...
