Reviews

NHL 10

While it isn't as big of a leap forward as last year's game, NHL 10 is still one fantastic hockey sim.
Apple Mac Pro (2009)

Apple's new eight-core Mac Pro demonstrates marked improvements over the older model in high-intensity digital media and multitasking scenarios.
Apple iMac (20-inch, 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2009)

A few other all-in-ones make this 20-inch iMac look expensive on a dollars-per-screen-inch basis, but none are as attractive or as capable juggling multiple programs. With a fast dual-core CPU and a strong array of features, Apple's updated all-in-one will slide seamlessly into a variety of roles at home or at work.
Dell Inspiron Mini 10

The Dell Inspiron Mini 10 looks to be an improvement on the Mini 9, although the initial low resolution screen, lack of WWAN and three-cell battery option could hamper initial sales. We'd recommend waiting for the updated model coming later this year.
Azentek CPC-1100

Azentek's 7-inch, in-car PC offers navigation, Bluetooth mobile phone integration and multimedia playback capabilities.
Apple iMac (20-inch, 2.4GHz)

Apple's smaller-scale iMac remains our favourite all-in-one. And while its looks, its ease of use, and its performance are all selling points, Windows PCs are starting to catch up (at least with the latter).
Lowepro Tasca 10

Lowepro's Tasca 10 sleeve is a cheap and cheerful pouch for protecting your digital camera, MP3 player, mobile phone or PDA.
Apple iMac (24-inch, 2.8GHz)

A slight bump to the specifications for the same price, the option to upgrade the graphics means the 24-inch iMac keeps the Editors' Choice it earned last year.
