Toshiba NB100

In the face of an identical hardware platform, Toshiba's netbook fails to bring a unique point of difference.

All Toshiba PC reviews

Apple's smaller-scale iMac remains our favourite all-in-one. And while its looks, its ease of use, and its performance are all selling points, Windows PCs are starting to catch up (at least with the latter).

HP TouchSmart IQ505a

The second generation TouchSmart as just a panel PC is gorgeous. The AU$1,999 price is fantastic as well — but we can't help but feel that there's so much more potential in the touchscreen aspect being left, ahem, untapped.
