  • Computing on a budget: 7 PCs tested

    We set the specs and the price and had a look at what Australia's PC vendors could come up with in terms of performance

  • ATI to juice up budget PCs

    Graphics-chip underdog ATI Technologies is expected to introduce new chips shortly that will dramatically increase the graphics performance of budget PCs.

  • Servers on a budget: 4 Servers tested

    Need a new server but only have AU$2500 to spend? The range of options is surprisingly good as long as you're willing to do without some of the fancy features.

  • Dell Dimension 4700

    Dell's new mainstream Dimension 4700 is an affordable, forward-looking PC that's well suited for the home or the small office.

  • Canon i950

    Canon's i950 photo inkjet is a sure winner for amateur digital photographers with a restricted budget.

  • Budget beaters: 6 notebooks for less

    Looking for a notebook on a tight budget? Check out our Australian review of 6 great budget notebooks.

  • Budget Inkjet shootout

    It's never been a better time to buy a cheap and feature packed inkjet printer. We test two likely candidates from HP and Canon.

  • Apple iMac (20-inch, 2.4GHz)

    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).

  • ASUS Eee Box

    Despite a few useful features, the ASUS Eee Box is a novelty at best. It can't come close to the performance and robustness of even the most basic standard budget PC, while a low-end notebook can do everything it can do and more.

  • Dell Studio Hybrid

    It's hard for us to recommend the Dell Studio Hybrid desktop for any practical purpose. As a desktop for productivity, you can get more bang-for-your-buck from a typical budget-priced midtower PC.

  • First Take: Apple Mac Mini

    Apple's new budget desktop is a simple box with a low price tag.

  • Desktop dream machines

    RMIT Test Lab finally got its hands on some of the most powerful business PCs on the market. So it is with an eagerness bordering on unadulterated glee that Matt Tett puts these racehorses through their paces.

  • Tech Guide: Desktop replacements for business

    Want to replace crumbling desktops with beautiful new shiny notebooks, but don't know where to start? Our Tech Guide sorts out the details you need to know.

  • Intel overhauls the PC

    With the new 915 and 925X chipsets, the desktop PC undergoes its most sweeping changes in nearly a decade. From multimedia systems designed for the digital home to those for business, technology improvements abound.

  • Tech Guide: What kind of desktop is right for me?

    Whether you are a home user or power gamer, it is important to get a desktop that best suits your lifestyle. Here's what to look out for.

  • David Braue NBN needs workers on board
    Without consensus on labour issues, the eventual winner of the NBN may end up as little more than a lame duck and a cashed-up symbol of the conflict between the desire for progress and the lack of mechanisms to deliver it.
  • Array D'Ascenzo: Read p23 of security review
    Following yesterday's admission by the Australian Taxation Office that its courier had lost a CD containing the details of 3,000 self-managed super funds, it wants to review how it handles information. My suggestion: go back to the review completed in April.

    News headlines about portable storage devices going missing are as common as muck, but the problem could be even more widespread than you suspect.
