- Build a Mac Pro equivalent workstation for 1/3 the cost
- Conventional wisdom tells us that a digital content creation and CAD professional had to fork out $6000 to $10,000 dollars for a high-end 8-core dual-processor workstation, but this is Real World IT where I say screw conventional wisdom.

- Enano ex7400u
- We admit we had worries about the Enano ex7400u. At $1,825, it's awfully expensive compared to its closest small-size competition. After testing, our opinion brightened, but once we compared it to a similarly priced laptop, we were less optimistic. It's been an emotional roller coaster reviewing this new entrant in...

- HP Compaq tc4400 tablet
- Common wisdom says that change comes from within, an axiom that HP has taken to heart with the tc4400 tablet PC. Physically identical to its predecessor, the tc4200, the tc4400's updated model number indicates only a refresh of the components inside its case: brand-new Core 2 Duo processors, an updated...

- Asus Lamborghini VX1 (yellow)
- The target buyer of the Asus Lamborghini VX1 isn't exactly looking to go incognito: The laptop's bright yellow lid, with a shape evocative of a sports car's spoiler, prominently features the Automobili Lamborghini logo. And the sports-car resemblance doesn't end with appearance--the Lamborghini VX1 raced through our performance benchmarks, keeping...

- Fujitsu LifeBook T4215 Tablet (Core 2 Duo 2GHz, 1GB RAM, 100GB HDD)
- Early convertible tablets often were saddled with out-of-date components. But newer models--such as the $2,429 Fujitsu LifeBook T4215--don't require you to sacrifice power for functionality, because they offer the latest technology, including Intel Core 2 Duo processors. While not as elegant as either the Lenovo ThinkPad X60 or the Gateway...

- Intel makes half-hearted price cuts
- Intel has just made a few half-hearted price cuts to their CPU range. Mostly these cuts affect the Celeron D lines. Why are the cuts half-hearted? Because Intel doesn't really have much in the way of serious competition from AMD right now.So, what do we have?Celeron D down by between...

- Gateway NX860XL
- When Gateway calls the NX860XL a desktop replacement, it's not kidding. This massive multimedia laptop has a desk-hogging footprint, but the benefits of its grand scale are a giant, 17-inch wide-screen display and specs to rival those of a decent desktop gaming rig. All of this semiportable goodness doesn't come...

- Apple iMac Core 2 Duo (24-inch, 2.16GHz)
- As recently as two weeks ago, all-in-one PCs were stuck at Apple's 20-inch iMac or Sony's 19-inch VAIO LS1. We like both products, but neither features a screen that's big enough for satisfying video. Apple's new 24-inch iMac Core 2 Duo changes the all-in-one game. Its configuration and upgrade possibilities...
