Apple iMac 24-inch (2009)
Apple made a number of changes to the 24-inch iMac, but making it available at this price is the most impressive. The rest of the updates are welcome, and Apple's multitasking capability remains unmatched.
Apple MacBook Pro (2.66GHz, 17-inch)
A little late to the party, Apple's redesigned 17-inch MacBook Pro joins the 15-inch model with a redesigned aluminium body, new trackpad with expanded functionality, and a dual graphics set-up for either longer battery life or better performance.
Reviews

Dell Studio XPS 16
The Dell Studio XPS 16 is an attractive laptop that handles HD content particularly well, although it suffers from an unimpressive battery life.
-
Acer Aspire 8930G (Core 2 Duo T9400 processor 2.53GHz, 4GB RAM)
With a true 1080p display, the 18-inch Acer Aspire 8930G is a capable HD content playback machine.

Sony VAIO LT VCG-LT28G
We're still trying to work out who the target market for the highly expensive LT VAIO is. Design-crazed multimillionaires, perhaps.
-
Sony VAIO VGN-NR17G
Sony's NR17G has a distinctive look, and while it doesn't stand out in the performance stakes, it's still a worthwhile desktop replacement candidate, as long as your needs are modest.
-
Acer Aspire 5920
Though it's bulky, the Acer Aspire 5920 makes a great choice for buyers who want both a media-friendly laptop and a portable HD DVD player that plugs into their home theatre.
-
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.
-
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.
