- HP Pavilion Slimline s3500f - Athlon 64 X2 5400+ 2.8 GHz
- Similar to the New York Yankees, who will miss the playoffs this year after 13 straight October campaigns, the HP Pavilion Slimline s3500f snaps the Slimline's run of four consecutive Editors' Choice awards. But just as the 2008 Yankees are still an above .500 team, the Slimline s3500f is still...

- HP Pavilion SlimLine s3200t
- Because there was some confusion the first time we reviewed a customizable HP SlimLine desktop, we'll make it known right from the start that this system is not like the budget SlimLines you'll find on store shelves. Instead, the Pavilion SlimLine s3200t is HP's online version. You can configure it...

- HP Pavilion SlimLine s3020n PC
- Hewlett-Packard's new Pavilion SlimLine s3020n PC comes bearing HP's new glossy black vision for all of its PCs and laptops. We've long complained that HP gray was only a few boring steps removed from old-school desktop beige, and we're glad to see HP took some steps to make its PCs...

- HP Compaq Presario SR5050NX
- Pros: Two items stand out for us on this new Compaq. The new chassis brings this system aesthetically in line with eMachines' desktops, which, in recent years, never sacrificed value for an attractive exterior. The other notable feature is the LightScribe DVD burner. You can definitely find sub-$500 PCs from...

- 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,...

- HP Pavilion Slimline s7500y
- HP is getting better at small-form-factor computing. We liked the original HP Pavilion Slimline s7220n and its successor, the s7320m, despite their wimpy notebook processors and lack of configuration options. Now HP tries it again, with the $830 (after a $50 mail-in rebate) HP Pavilion Slimline s7500y. The new system,...

- HP Pavilion s7320n Slimline
- Until recently, small-form-factor SFF desktop computers targeted niche buyers, such as gamers on the LAN-party circuit and city dwellers short on desk space. But with Apple's unveiling of the Mac Mini last year, the SFF computer began to migrate into the mainstream, thanks to the Mini's aggressive price point and...

- The Gateway GT5674 is the second mainstream desktop we've reviewed with a quad-core processor, following the Acer Aspire M5100 we tested in March. We've seen our share of high-end, high-priced gaming boxes with quad-core CPUs recently, but this technology has quickly trickled down to much more affordable desktops for mainstream...

- Apple iMac (24-inch, 2.8GHz)
- A bump to the frontside bus and a smidge more L2 cache can safely be classified as a minor update. But even slightly improved specifications, when they come at a lower price than those they replace, are appreciated. Last September, we tested the highest-end 24-inch model, which carried a baseline...

At the top of the line is the SC-PT960, which includes wireless speakers in the rear, tallboy speakers up front, and is XM-ready.

The $700 Acer Aspire M5100 is an excellent representative of this new breed of affordable quad-core desktops. The question is, considering that...
