- Dell Inspiron i1545-4374PBU
- Editors' note: This review is part of our holiday 2009 retail desktop and laptop review roundup, covering specific fixed configurations of popular systems that can be found in retail stores. There's something to be said for simplicity. The Dell Inspiron i1545-4374PBU might not look like much and its limited supply...

- Toshiba Satellite A505-S6980
- You can't argue with a large-screen, value-priced laptop when it delivers good performance, and looks nice to boot. We appreciated the Toshiba Satellite A505-S6960 when we reviewed it in our 2009 back-to-school retail roundup, liking its affordability, large screen, strong battery life, and excellent-sounding speakers. Just a few months later,...

- Toshiba Satellite L455-S5975
- We've said it before, and we'll say it again: especially in this economy, it's hard to hate a laptop that only costs $350. It's even harder to hate a Windows 7 laptop that costs that much. The Toshiba L455-S5975 is, by 50 dollars, the least expensive notebook computer in our...

- Kodak 5250
- The ESP 5250 is Kodak's latest upgrade to last year's ESP 5 all-in-one AIO, which should be obvious from the almost identical design. Aside from looks, the printer does make improvements to print quality and most notably, output speed, but the printer still isn't perfect--it's missing an auto-document feeder and...

- Vizio VF551XVT
- Photo gallery: Vizio VF551XVTWe're willing to bet that when Vizio announced the VF551XVT back in January, plenty of savvy HDTV bargain hunters marked down "June" as the time they'd buy this 55-inch LED-based LCD. Then the company pushed its release back to September. Then it announced that the...

- 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...

- AOC V22 Verfino - LCD display - TFT - 22"
- The AOC V22 can be found online for $353. That's about $50 more than the expected price of the Samsung SyncMaster XL2370, the best LED-based monitor we've reviewed. The AOC offers a built-in Webcam and microphone, but its advantages over the XL2370 stop there. The AOC has no DVI...

- The ViewSonic VX2433wm is a typical Twisted Nematic monitor with DVI and HDMI connections and built-in speakers. It also has several useful color temperature options, but its performance in games and movies is marred by its relatively low brightness level. For about $200, the monitor is a good...
