- Mainstream media writes Windows obit
- Wow, a tough day for Windows. BusinessWeek reports that HP, the world's biggest PC company, is so troubled by Vista's 'tepid reception' and Apple's resurgence that it is developing its own operating system. Meanwhile a New York Times columnist writes on his blog that Windows is "already...

- Sony Vaio JS190J (silver)
- Finally, a Windows-based all-in-one earns our admiration. We've seen new all-in-one PCs from Hewlett-Packard and Averatec this year, and Apple also refreshed its popular iMac. None of them deliver as much in the way of features and performance as Sony's new, $1,499 Vaio JS190J. A full-size desktop processor helps make...

- Apple iMac (20-inch, 2.4GHz)
- We've already shown our affection for Apple's highest-end iMac, but with back-to-school shopping season in full-swing, the time felt right to fill in a gap in our review database by covering the lowest-end, $1,200, 20-inch model. What we find is that the most affordable iMac has the usual content-creation strengths...

- Are all-in-one desktops a decent deal?
- Averatec, the O.C.'s other computer maker after Gateway, has released a new all-in-one desktop. The design doesn't break any new ground in this category, but it is simple, compact and reasonably attractive. And with a 22-inch LCD, Nvidia GeForce 8400 graphics and an integrated TV tuner, at first glance it...

- HP TouchSmart IQ506
- Hewlett-Packard's redesigned TouchSmart PC solves at least one of the problems of the original. The new look stays much truer to that of a traditional all-in-one, leaving behind last year's clunky hinged design that we admit we kind of liked. The $1,499 TouchSmart PC IQ506 also shares an issue with...

- Does the Dell PC XPS One top Apple's iMac?
- Some PC reviewers say that Dell's new XPS One all-in-one "tops the iMac." Are they blind? Surfing around some PC reviews, a couple of items caught my eye: a bit of hyperbole over Dell's new all-in-one XPS One desktop and then Apple's latest banner ad attack on...

- By itself, WinBook's new PowerSpec T470 looks like a strong-enough machine for Windows Vista Home Premium. If it came in around $800 or so, we'd be happy with its overall price performance, too. The problem is that at $999, it's too close in price to the faster Dell Dimension E521....

This Vista-based home-theater PC provides better performance at a lower price, however, and it allows for easy upgrades--an important fact given the sparse configuration of our $1,001 review unit....
