Advantages: Very Small, Elegant, very very quiet
Disadvantages: Limited expansion capability (But then its not a server!)

...smaller. In this instance the Biostar is 210mm x 323mm x 187mm approx. 8” x 13” x 8". Isn’t it expensive for a small case? That all depends on how you look at it I suppose! This case retails at about £90. For that you get the case, silent power supply, motherboard, CPU cooler (heatsink and fan) and a multi-format card reader. Separately these could cost you a lot more than that. Is there a catch? Well, again, that depends on how you look at it. ...
...that it was still on. Biostar have cleverly designed the case to use the optimum airflow to cool the internal components down. Coupled with a very quiet power supply and case fan, there is no sound from the case at all. Summary This is the nicest case I have used to build a home PC so far. It’s build quality is second to none and it looks great too. Oh, and did I mention it’s quiet? Stick a PC-TV card in it and have yourself a media entertainment ... Read review

Advantages: very very quiet, small, portable, cool looking, easy to upgrade
Disadvantages: not many DIMM slots, not many PCI slots

To start off you can get this entire system for around £140 now. I've had this system for over 9 months now, and can give a long term test result/review. It has built in 100mb LAN, firewire, 4x USB2, onboard sound (which isn't that good in my opinion), digital out, (5.1) and integrated graphics, with handy headphone socket on the front and back. The case design is excellent, with *all* cables tied and tucked neatly into the case design, which improves ...
...case! Well done Biostar! The manuals for installation and setup are clear and concise, and would enable the newbie to setup this PC easily and within an hour i reckon. One of the reasons I bought this was the fact that the memory is interleaved, thereby giving the maximum theoretical throughput for DDR...mmm tasty... Another was the fact it was so easy to open up! It has thumbscrews instead of screws ont he case, so that facilitated easy upgrades. ... Read review

Advantages: PERFORMS WELL
Disadvantages: COSTLY.

The hp Compaq stunned my mind when I heard its ability to deliver proven technology. I have some influence on deciding on which type of computer hardware or software to purchase in office. The PC device comes with dual core technology type and the dual core simply means that the PC is capable of having more than one processor and it has advantages over those PCs that have only one processor because it is quite faster and can process numerous in ...
...use for my office work. HP has proven their competence on making computer hard wares including printers that I regard one of the best in the market currently. Well getting this in my household would cost me quite some money because this is an office use. Since I am now in need of such PC, I think of making savings for it. Its company manual description is detailed very well and quite easy to understand and use. From what I have read from the manual, ... Read review

Advantages: No bugs, major crashes, fast and loads of fun!
Disadvantages: Can't think of any....

I was absolutely blown away by this little computer! My partner, who is a graphic designer, bought this to replace the PC we had and as soon as I got on it I was away! It is so user friendly and easy to navigate. I have learned so much through just using and I don't get irritated by it because it hardly ever crashes. When it does 'crash' or 'freeze up' it's very easy to rectify as you just click 'force quit' and it solves the problem! Brilliant! ...
...to get it working again! Yay! There is also some really fun software already on it like the IMovies and IDVD that you can create your own little movies with photographs with music and effects. It's really good fun and that's the key to this little Mac, it's fun to use whatever you're doing! ... Read review
