Logitech G19

Logitech's G19 Gaming Keyboard boasts a built-in colour LCD with exciting capabilities, as well as lots of little improvements over previous models. But with few apps — thus far — that take advantage of the screen in a meaningful way, the G19's potential remains largely untapped.

The DP04 is a classic example of why nettop buyers are better off buying netbooks.
Intel Core i7-965 Extreme Edition

While Core i7 presents a new performance paradigm, the heinously gluttonous Australian prices will need to come down before it's accepted by the mainstream.
Apple iMac (24-inch, 2.8GHz)

A slight bump to the specifications for the same price, the option to upgrade the graphics means the 24-inch iMac keeps the Editors' Choice it earned last year.
Apple Mac Pro (2x 2.8GHz Quad Core Xeon, 2GB RAM)

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

The Bose Computer MusicMonitors are a compact and good sounding pair of multimedia speakers -- they're just way too expensive.
Intel's quad-core chip unleashed

The Core 2 Extreme QX6700 will remain an enthusiast part for a while, but as a glimpse of the future, it's clear that clock speed is out and core counts are in.
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.
