• Fujitsu M2010

  With a thick chassis and features that don't rise above the pack, the Fujitsu M2010 will have a hard time breaking through the netbook clutter.

• Synology DS209

  The Synology DS209 is an excellent little unit, with a more complex than necessary set up routine. Still for those looking for a highly featured, high performing NAS with an easy to use and flashy menu, it's certainly a compelling choice.

• Acer Aspire Timeline 4810T

  Since when did vendor battery claims actually represent the truth? Acer's Timeline notebook just keeps going and going and going, but it's a pity that it's otherwise underpowered and hampered by Windows Vista.

• HighPoint RocketRAID 2340

  HighPoint's RocketRAID 2340 is designed for those running a file server on the cheap. While it doesn't haul massive throughput thanks to its lack of hardware grunt, and the lack of Solaris support is lamentable, for the price it does the job admirably.

• HP Pavilion DV2 1001AU

  For a 12-inch laptop we'd expect more performance and features than we're getting, but there are obviously compromises to be made in making ultrathin affordable.

• Iomega Home Media Network Drive (1TB)

  The Iomega Home Media Network Drive, a single-volume NAS server, is easy to set up and use for even the most novice user; however, its lack of advanced features might lessen its appeal to savvy users.

• Xenon Nitro Z5 Visual Workstation

  If you are in a processing/graphics-intensive role and your employer wants to increase your productivity, then start your purchase requisition for a Xenon Nitro Z5 Visual Workstation.

• Apple Time Capsule (2009)

  Apple Time Capsule is a convenient and simple wireless router and NAS server combo for your home. Unfortunately, especially in the case of the 1TB version, you can find better deals on devices that offer greater storage space and many more features for the price.

• 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.

• Western Digital My Book World Edition (2TB)

  The Western Digital My Book World Edition is a fast, simple to use, plug and play NAS that unfortunately lacks many features and has sub-par remote access performance.

• Dell OptiPlex 960

  If you're shopping at the premium end of the business desktop market, you'll be hard-pressed to do better than the Dell OptiPlex 960.

• Benchmarks: AMD's Phenom II

  AMD's Phenom II processor is designed to boost the company's presence in the desktop market. But how does it fare against Intel's latest Core i7 (Nehalem) chip?

• Asus N10 (Intel Atom N270 Processor 1.6GHz, 1GB RAM)

  You'll pay a bit more for the privilege, but the Asus N10 is unique amongst netbooks for its discrete, switchable graphics and extra ports.

• Asus Eee PC S101

  Asus packs the same basic components found in other Netbooks into a stylish, slim chassis for a modest premium in price, with some unfortunate keyboard-layout compromises.

• 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.
