Apple iMac (20-inch, 2.4GHz)

With its super-elegant new design and a strong configuration, Apple's new iMac competes with the PC desktop market better than perhaps any previous Mac to date.

Alienware Area-51 m9750

Alienware's flagship gaming laptop, the Area-51 m9750, has plenty of appeal for high-end gamers, but the alien head aesthetic seems dated, and newer components are right around the corner.

Reviews

  • Toshiba Tecra A6

    The Toshiba Tecra A6 is a well-designed business laptop that delivers good performance for the money and a host of business-friendly security features, but its glossy display will prove to be a deal breaker for many.

  • Apple MacBook (Core 2 Duo 2.0GHz, 13-inch, black)

    The new MacBook, updated to Intel's Core 2 Duo CPU, compares very favourably with Apple's high-end MacBook Pro line, offering premium performance at a reasonable price.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Apple MacBook (2.0GHz, 13-inch, black)

    With the MacBook, Apple has corrected a handful of the iBook's shortcomings, hit a reasonable price point, and delivered a laptop that makes a great compromise between size and portability.

  • Apple MacBook Pro (1.83GHz)

    The MacBook Pro delivers unparalleled style, a solid set of features and software, and a few transitional performance issues that keep it from rivaling the most powerful PC laptops.

  • Apple iMac Core Duo (20-inch, 2.0GHz)

    Apple's Intel-based iMac Core Duo boasts an enviable combination of a first-rate design, an impeccable software bundle, and the newfound ability to run Windows in addition to Mac OS X. You simply won't find a more feature-packed, versatile mainstream computer.

  • Apple Mac Mini Core Duo

    Apple packs more media-specific features into the Mac Mini to make an inexpensive and useful entertainment-room computer. It's tremendously easy to use, although it surprised us with poor image processing.
