Creative Zen V Plus (2GB)

Small, smooth, colourful and charming; the Zen V Plus is the cutest MP3 player Creative has come up with so far.
Apple iMac Core 2 Duo (24-inch, 2.16GHz)

Other vendors might offer more flexible configurations and better deals on components, and the specter of HD video looms darkly, but the 24-inch iMac's sprawling display and convincingly capable features should set most people's minds at ease.
iRiver T30

The T30 is a basic player by iRiver standards.
Dell Dimension 9100

If you're a fan of multitasking or do lots of multimedia encoding, then dual core systems like the Dimension 9100 are a solid option. Those whose programs are older might want to hold back a while.
