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).
Fujitsu's foray into Centrino 2 laptops is solid, but the competition is offering more features at a lower price.
The Lenovo A57 is a well-priced office desktop with a strong performance. While very similar to its smaller sibling, the M57e, the A57 offers better performance and upgrade options for a small price increase.
Today's notebooks come with a vast range of processors, but will they give you the best performance? Our comprehensive review benchmarks 19 of the latest mobile processors, giving you an insight into the best chips on the market.
Certain applications will run slower under the Intel quad-core processors, according to a company spokesperson.
If you thought dual cores were over the top, get ready. Intel presents the Core 2 Extreme QX6700, a single CPU with four distinct processing cores.

Apple's new Intel-powered iMac debuts earlier than expected, and Apple claims the new Core Duo CPUs offer a performance boost of two to three times that of the old iMac G5. We get a preview.
AMD and Intel both have dual-core CPUs out on the market, but which chip maker's technology is truly the best? To find the answer, we built two testbeds as nearly identical as we could and ran each chip through a battery of tests.

Thanks to new Intel hardware, the dc7100 is one of the most powerful business PCs we've seen to date.
Processors are now called upon to handle everything from simple text and graphics, through 3D games, to serious tasks like video rendering. We put Intel and AMD's desktop CPUs through the labs to see how they cope.
Intel's new'Prescott' Pentium 4 has double the L1 and L2 cache of its 'Northwood' predecessor. An extended 31-stage pipeline accounts for the fact that the new chip is mostly slower than the CPU it replaces.
If you're looking for a high-end desktop replacement notebook, you've got a choice of processors and even a 64-bit option. Intel or AMD: whose processor reigns supreme?
If you have a PC with a Pentium, Pentium II, AMD K6 or K6-2 processor, an upgrade will make your computing a lot more fun.
AMD's Athlon 64 launch marks the dawn of the 64-bit desktop PC era. We evaluate the efficiency of the new CPU using over 100 benchmark tests.
