- Editors' note: This review is part of our 2009 Retail Laptop and Desktop Back-to-School roundup, covering specific fixed configurations of popular systems that can be found in retail stores. We're not overly excited by the HP Pavilion Elite e9120y. Yes, it has a Blu-ray drive, an AMD quad-core chip, and...

- HP Pavilion Elite m9515y
- HP's Pavilion Elite m9515y is the kind of PC for which we're surprised there's still a market. We say that because we've officially soured on the idea of a standard mid-tower in the living room, and if you want a computer to serve as a dedicated small-scale home entertainment system...

- HP Pavilion Elite m9400tHP Pavilion Elite m9400t I purchased this computer in December 2008. It has never worked. During initial setup, the monitor could not receive a video signal. After over an hour on the phone with the Tech Dept, I was informed that it had a...

- HP Pavilion Elite m9402f
- We've never loved Hewlett-Packard's Pavilion Elite desktop chassis, largely due to their clunky design that shoehorns not one, but two bays into the system for non-included, proprietary HP removable hard drives. The Pavilion Elite m9402f is not different, but we're also down on this $819 system for its subpar features...

- HP Pavilion Elite m9300t
- At its core, our $1,100 HP Pavilion Elite m9300t review unit is a reasonably priced example of HP's midrange desktop. It gives you about $900 worth of basic computer, and an extra $200 in home theater-style extras. The good news is that this system is configurable, so if, like us,...

- HP Pavilion Elite m9100t
- HP's Pavilion Elite m9100t is a well intentioned, expensive do-it-all desktop. Go down its spec sheet and you'll likely come away with the idea that there's very little this system can't do. We just wish it did more to distinguish itself from its competition, particularly from Dell. Dell's two most...

- HP Pavilion Elite m9040n
- HP's Pavilion Elite m9040n frustrates us because, but for a seemingly greedy design decision, we actually like it quite a bit. This $1,190 desktop comes with a quad core chip and a cleaner profile than older HP desktops, thanks to its integrated remote-control receiver and wireless networking antenna. Our issue...

- Apparently, ZT Systems didn't get our memo asking for a complete redesign of its Affinity series desktop computers. Earlier this year, we bemoaned the blase styling of the Affinity 7308Ma, and although this new $800 Affinity 7334Ma looks just as generic, it still offers a robust set of components including...

- Not surprised.Over the last couple of years both HP's and Dell's quality control has virtually fallen off of a cliff. Acer and Gateway never pretended to have any QC, so I guess they don't have any lower to fall.For a new PC, I would only consider a Lenovo system, an...

We'd recommend this desktop to budget-minded gamers, digital media artists, or anyone in need a reasonably...
