- Dell Studio XPS 13 - First look
- Yesterday I took delivery of a Dell Studio XPS 13 notebook. This is a replacement for my aging and rapidly eroding 17-inch notebook. Since mentioning this system I've fielded quite a few emails from people interested in finding out about this system. Here are my initial thoughts on this system....

- Some minor criticisms of the Windows 7 beta
- After using the finalised Windows 7 beta build (build 7000) for a good few days as my primary operating system, I'm exceptionally happy with it. I've tried to find bugs, as it is pre-release software, but so far have found none, which bodes well for the software giant. I do,...

- Dell XPS One 24 (PRODUCT) RED desktop computer (Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200, 750GB HDD, 4GB)
- We liked Sony's Vaio LV180J 24-inch all-in-one because it works as a relatively complete secondary home entertainment system. Despite Dell's ambitions in that direction with its own XPS One 24, we don't think it's as well suited to the purpose. Instead, Dell's new large screen all-in-one fares better if you...

- Dell Studio 15
- Parsing the intended markets for Dell's ever-shifting in-house brand names requires a bit of tea-leaf reading, although it's been easier of late, with the company stripping down its consumer brands to just the Inspiron and XPS lines. Now the company is adding a new line between the budget Inspiron and...

- Dell XPS 630
- We have a feeling that Dell is going to sell a lot of XPS 630 systems. This new midrange desktop brings over many of the features we like about Dell's XPS 720, but in a more manageable size. The price starts at $1,249 at launch, and for that you get...

- 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...

- Dell XPS One
- Dell offers four basic configurations for this new XPS One all-in-one system, and our $2,399 review sample represents the highest-end model. Complete with a Blu-ray burner, 802.11n wireless networking, and a TV tuner, it competes well against other higher-end all-in-ones, namely Sony's high-end VAIO LT19U. Overall, though, HP's cheaper,...
