- Shuttle SN25P
- For around $375 (and we bet that price will drop shortly when AMD's chip prices fall) Shuttle's bare-bones SN25P gives you a decent small-form-factor SFF case, a 350-watt power supply, and an Nforce 4 Ultra motherboard. There's a PCI Express graphics card slot if you don't want to rely on...

- Falcon Northwest FragBox 2 (Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650)
- With Intel's new processors just a few short weeks away, it's hard to get that excited about spending $4,000 or so on a high-end gaming PC now. That doesn't mean that we can't appreciate what Falcon Northwest has done with its highest-end FragBox 2. Thanks to a pair of Radeon...

- Shuttle KPC K-4800
- We liked Shuttle's $230 KPC K-4500 PC mostly because it was one of the cheapest complete desktops around. This higher-end model is a different story. We should qualify "higher end," because the Shuttle KPC K-4800 still starts at $299. But at that price, it's closing in on standard Windows PC...

- Samsung SBH700
- As much as we like regular wired earbuds for listening to music, we would probably go for a stereo Bluetooth headset instead if it was an option. Not only does it free you from dealing with wires, but it's also easier to use in the gym or when running in...

- Virgin Mobile Shuttle - red

- Shuttle XPC P2 4800X
- Shuttle says that the idea of its tiny XPC P2 4800X gaming PC is to compete with the Falcon Northwest FragBox 2. We suggest that Shuttle head back to the lab. The chief hallmark of this $3,200 configuration is its Intel X48 chipset and its Core 2 Extreme QX9650 processor....
