Fujitsu Siemens ESPRIMO Edition P2511
Review of Fujitsu Siemens ESPRIMO Edition P2511 - Core 2 Duo E4300 1.8 GHz by gdogga

Advantages: good look, relatively cheap, dvd burner, 160gb hdd
Disadvantages: not enough RAM, processor isnt that good

I have this computer at home. its a great piece of machinery, although its a tad slow and i had the RAM double to now leave me with 2gb, i find that this processor, compared to that of the one in my office is slow. but for the price, this personal desktop computer is a bargain, it has great features, including a dvd burner, and a relatively large hard drive. the overall look of the computer is amazing, it looks like its worth a lot more money. building ...

Diamond review   The Bees -Knees
Review of Sony VAIO M1 - Mobile Pentium 4 3.06 GHz - 15.4" by sghawken

Advantages: More than just a PC
Disadvantages: The screen could be a little bigger

...different. To describe the Sony M-1 is kind of difficult it has an LCD screen that is fixed to the base unit; also attached to that base unit is a flop down keyboard, two very good speakers and a sub woofer. Fold the keyboard flat against the screen and you have a unit roughly 1 and ½ foot long by 7 inches deep. When I first switched the PC on it went through the usual set up format that you go through with any windows operated PC. Once installed, ...
...screen, its fitted with the Sony X BLACK style screen, this makes dark colours look amazing, in fact everything looks great on it. The room that I have my PC in is frequently filled with sunlight and the screen seldom gets to the stage that I cannot see it. The mouse is an optical one, so I can run it across almost anything. It responds a lot better than a standard mouse, a subject of consistent annoyance to me. Yes two years on and the mouse is ... Read review

Great multimedia machine.
Review of Sony VAIO PCV-V1 - P4 2.8 GHz - 15" TFT by zeeboy

Advantages: Compact yet powerful. Excellent for MultiMedia
Disadvantages: Not really a gaming machine. No in-built wireless

...To be honest i think Sony have made these wireless more to complement the cool design of the PCV-V1 rather than for any practical reasons. A remote control is included which can be used to launch and operate the various multimedia functions remotely. It is a cool accessory and is great if you're watching a DVD or listening to music but again im not 100% convinced it is necessary Most of the sockets 2xUSB, firewire, ethernet, ariel-in etc are located ...
...of the PCV-V1 on the Sony website. The right hand side of the unit contains the CD/DVD player/burner and the power switch. The power switch glows a cool green or yellow depending on wether the machine is on or in standby. It looks great in the dark and is a nice touch. The CD/DVD unit is one of those external loading ones that when pressed pops-out of the machine allowing you to insert cd's or dvd's. Once loaded you then push the tray back in. ... Read review

iMac beats PC for photo and video.
Review of Apple iMac Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz - 24" TFT by Segedunum

Advantages: Brilliant screen, fast, runs Windows too
Disadvantages: Virtually none, but not good for DIY upgrades.

Introduction I was walking through some wood on the Scottish Borders one day when we came across a cottage where we saw a Cavalier King Charles sitting on a chair in the sun, and a gentleman working on a computer. We got chatting about the dog (as we also have a Cavalier) and the conversation inevitable turn the his computer which happened to be an iMac 2.4GHz, 24" Core 2 Duo model being used for photography and graphics. The gentleman showed me ...
...me that I should give up my Windows PC and to switch to MAC for my main uses of photo and video. If I was really stuck, I was told that Mac could run any Windows programmes I needed on it. My main intention was to leave the Windows PC for day to day use, and use the MAC PC for hobbies only - more of that later. However, a few weeks later, after looking at reviews and seeing the machine again, I took the plunge and bought the iMac - a decision I ... Read review

ML350 *brilliant*
Review of HP ProLiant ML350 G5 Base - Dual-Core Xeon 5130 2 GHz by boaler88

Advantages: Lots of storage great upgrade capacity.
Disadvantages: requires a professional to install correctly

HP ML350 are very very excellent servers. these machines are very reliable and very fast, and widely used in many businesses across the UK they tend to run best with Windows SBS loaded as the operating system. with 5 hard drive bays you can have more than enough storage space for your company use. so you could have a maximum storage capacity of 5TB if you required it. Dual intel Xeon capability. Maximum RAM of 32GB if the G5 version of the ML350 ...
...a redundant Power supply into the server, it is a very good idea to purchase a redundant Power supply, this will keep your seerver Powered from a different wall socket if you primary Power supply should fail. also with a onboard RAID controller allowing the user to setup redundancy on there data which comes in handy if the worst was to happen. Problems with these server are very RARE. absolute brilliant value for money and very Reliable, perfedt ... Read review
