Apple Mac Mini (Late 2009)

If you demand a small, relatively affordable Mac, the Mac Mini is your only option. Otherwise, you can find Windows-based small form factor desktops that offer more interesting features with better value.
Photoshop Elements 8

New versions of Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements boost organisational capabilities and automation.
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.
Belkin Switch-To-Mac cable

Belkin's Switch-To-Mac package performs adequately, but at a high price for what's likely to be a single use cable.
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.
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).
