Reviews

  • Dell Inspiron Mini 1210

    The Mini 1210's upgraded processor and shift to Windows XP does remove some of the original model's biggest issues, but it's still not a netbook that we'd buy.

  • 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 Mac Mini (2009)

    Apple's newest Mac Mini is set to be a hit, being both small and powerful. We suspect that if Apple had managed to squeeze Blu-ray support in there, it would take a large chunk of the home theatre PC market.

  • Dell Inspiron Mini 10

    The Dell Inspiron Mini 10 looks to be an improvement on the Mini 9, although the initial low resolution screen, lack of WWAN and three-cell battery option could hamper initial sales. We'd recommend waiting for the updated model coming later this year.

  • HP Mini 2140 (Intel Atom N270 processor 1.6GHz, 1GB RAM)

    HP offers a premium version of its Mini 1000 while keeping the price down, making the Mini 2140 the netbook to beat.

  • HP Mini 1000

    HP may have arrived late to the consumer netbook game, but by lifting the generous keyboard from last year's business-oriented model, the Mini 1000 easily joins the category's top tier.

  • Dell Inspiron Mini 12

    The Dell Inspiron Mini 12 is a good size and features lots of storage, but is hampered by its sluggish performance and inability to stay on your lap.

  • Microsoft Explorer Mini Mouse

    We can't fault Microsoft's Bluetrack technology, which makes this a mouse capable of tracking over just about anything. Just don't stare at the pretty blue light for too long.
