Big-screen fun in a preposterously puny package. That's the remit for the Mini All-in-one Giant, Zotac's new nettop PC. Otherwise known as the Zotac MAG, it's supposed to be ultra compact yet powerful enough for full-HD entertainment thanks to its Nvidia Ion chipset. Does it deliver? On paper, ...

Altec Lansing's MX6021 Expressionist ULTRA 2.1 speaker set is an excellent mix of form and function. For deep bass, a long-throw 6.5-inch subwoofer is built into an imposing, industrial-inspired wooden trapezoidal design. The satellite speakers look good too, with 3-inch midrange woofers and ...

Clickfree's Automatic Backup system has undergone some changes since the first release. It still incrementally backs up more than 400 file types, including images, music, emails, documents, spreadsheets and more, and still updates automatically simply by plugging it in. But this new release ...

The new Apple iMac range boasts four standard configurations. We tested the second-most expensive model, which has a massive 27-inch screen, an Intel 3.06GHz Core 2 Duo processor, a 1TB hard drive and an ATI Radeon HD 4670 graphics processor with 256MB of memory. Three of the four new iMacs ...

Toshiba's aggressive pricing of its 2009 TV range has won it many fans and numerous recommendations from us. The Toshiba 37XV635D is the 37-inch model from the XV635D range which includes Resolution+ technology, which claims to upscale any standard-definition source to 'near HD quality'. Other ...

The Toshiba XDE-600 is the second generation of DVD players to feature Toshibas' coveted upscaling technology that attempts to upscale your existing DVDs to 1080p, commonly known as XDE. There's a big difference between DVD and Blu-ray's picture quality, but Toshiba's eXtended Detail ...

When we tested the TVonics MDR-250 in our April 2009 issue we declared it to be a little expensive but with enough features to raise it above the Freeview adapter crowd. This new model, the TVonics MDR-240 has seen a step down in numbering but has been developed to bring it in line with the ...

The choice of Freesat hardware has expanded – albeit not by much – and availability is far more widespread. One of the newer entrants is Metronic's Sat HD 100, currently the UK's cheapest hi-def capable unit. Now it's available from Maplin in a DIY package, with dish, LNB and everything else ...

The LC52LE700E is Sharp's first affordable mass-market LED TV and very own prospective OLED-killer. While the company has dabbled with LED-backlighting before, with its super high-end XS1E range of screens, they cost two arms, a leg and half a lower intestine, so it's welcome to see the brand ...

Do not adjust your set. Your eyes do not deceive you. The NEC MultiSync 195VXM+ is indeed a thoroughly old school LCD monitor. So, forget 16:10 widescreen, much less the lastest 16:9 aspect, and bask in the sepia-toned glory of the 5:4 awesomeness of this 19-inch panel. It's the sort of form ...

Down here in the sub-£200 monitor market, it's easy to get the impression that there's little or no choice other than TN panels. If you fancy a screen with superior technology, such as an IPS or PVA panel, you're looking at the thick end of £300. Thanks to LG, however, there is still hope in ...
