Reviews

  • Asus F3Jm

    It commands something of a premium price, but Asus' F3Jm doesn't disappoint when it comes to performance.

  • Apple iMac Core 2 Duo (17-inch, 1.83GHz)

    The 17-inch iMac is missing a few features you might like — SuperDrive and a remote control, to name two — but it still makes a stellar home PC, thanks to its great design, new Core 2 Duo processor, and superior software bundle. Plus, its price makes it a borderline budget PC.

  • TomTom GO 910

    An excellent GPS device that's very easy to use and fully loaded with features.

  • Sony VAIO VGN-AR18GP

    If you're happy to wait a few months for more Blu-ray content to land, the AR18GP is a powerful, multimedia-rich laptop whose only glaring omission is a TV tuner.

  • HP Pavilion dv1600

    The HP Pavilion dv1600 is an entry-level thin-and-light notebook with a plethora of multimedia features. Its performance troubled us, but the low asking price and impressive battery life are difficult to argue with.

  • NEC VERSA S5200

    While NEC isn't a big name in Australian notebooks, the VERSA S5200 should put the company on the ultra-portable map thanks to its competitive price and performance.

  • ASUS V6J

    The ASUS V6J is a reasonably compact thin-and-light notebook that has the added bonus of being quite powerful as well.

  • Toshiba Satellite Pro P100

    Toshiba's Satellite Pro P100 is a competent multimedia workhorse that could easily replace most regular desktop PCs.
