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.

The Mac Pro is still near the pinnacle of workstation machines, elegantly fusing style, power and features.
