MacBook Pro vs. the PC competition
Mac or PC? The war rages on. We've thrown the most recent 13-inch MacBook Pro and the closest PC to a Mac we've seen, the Asus U80V, into the ring for an all out brawl.
HP Mini 110

Reviews

QNAP TS-509 Pro
The QNAP TS-509 Pro comes highly recommended — it's a flexible NAS with an interface that's gaining usability as time goes on.
-
Toshiba NB200
The Toshiba NB200 is an excellent netbook — we just wish someone would evolve the platform already, but with Microsoft and Intel holding the reigns it doesn't seem set to happen soon.
