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...

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...

HP TouchSmart 600

The HP TouchSmart 600 shows how getting an early jump on unproven technology can pay off. HP was first to market with a touch-based all-in-one PC more than two years ago. Now that Windows 7 has spurred almost every major desktop vendor toward multitouch, HP has the advantage of years...

Averatec D1133 All-In-One

Does a certain price make a nonmobile computer a Nettop? How about a particular CPU or case design? The Averatec D1133 All-In-One blurs the lines. Its low price and relatively slow performance make an argument for calling it a Nettop. But even though it's slow by conventional PC standards, thanks...

Mimo UM-720S

If the Nanovision Mimo UM-720S had a much lower price point, I'd be willing to recommend it. As it stands at $230, it's simply not worth it. The 7-inch minidisplay that act as an ancillary screen to your main screen, has narrow viewing angles, a confusing setup process, and a...

Acer Aspire M5800-U5802A

Blame its cheap-looking plastic exterior if Acer's $799 Aspire M5800 doesn't look like much. It makes up for its discount bin looks with fast performance, as well as a solid all-around set of features. We'd recommend this desktop to budget-minded gamers, digital media artists, or anyone in need a reasonably...
