Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 2727 review
Reviews Vista Basic -- the version without the fancy Flip 3D effect Vista is so famous for -- but very little else. You get a copy of Windows They'll pester you with relentless demands for the latest Sony Vaio, and all you'll have money for is a Fujitsu...

HP TouchSmart IQ500 review
Reviews Unfortunately, as with all PCs using a 32-bit operating system (Windows Vista Home Premium here), the most the TouchSmart can address is in the region of 3.12GB, which is rather a waste. Blimey, the original TouchSmart IQ770 was ugly, wasn't it?

Toshiba Satellite L300 review
Reviews Running Windows Vista Home Premium, the machine posted a PCMark 05 result of 3,341, which is not too shabby for such a low-priced offering. Toshiba has a strong reputation for being able to put together budget laptops that have the look and feel of...

Dell Studio 17 review
Reviews We're not saying having lots of RAM is pointless, but rather the 32-bit versions of Windows Vista -- and indeed any 32-bit operating system -- can only access a maximum of 3.12GB of RAM. It comes with the 32-bit version of Windows Vista Home...

Dell Latitude XT review
Reviews Dell has been circumspect about the format, but saw the building of Tablet PC functionality into Windows Vista and Intel's low-power Santa Rosa platform as key features in prompting entry to the market.

Asus Nova Lite Mini 2L review
Reviews Asus offers retailers the option of Windows XP Basic, Vista Home Premium, Vista Home Basic and even Linux. We'd recommend opting for models with Vista Home Premium, since that includes the Vista Media Center interface, which is a great way to sort...

Samsung R410 review
Reviews You also get a megapixel webcam -- great for the exhibitionist in us all -- and a pre-installed copy of Windows Vista Home Premium, which features the It's the smallest in Samsung's R series, so in theory, it's ideal for anyone that wants solid...

Logitech G15 Keyboard (Revision 2) review
Reviews You still get the much-loved 'Windows-killer' key, which disables the Vista key so that you don't accidentally switch out to your desktop mid-game. We should also add that the G15's LCD is Windows SideShow compatible, although

Shuttle XPC G5 6801M review
Reviews Don't bother with the 4GB of DDR2 667MHz memory at £26 extra -- the PC ships with the 32-bit version of Windows Vista Home Premium, which only recognises 3GB. The G5 6801M comes with Vista Home Premium edition, as we've already discussed.

MSI Turbobook GX600 review
Reviews Software is relatively scarce, but you do get a copy of Windows Vista Home Premium edition, which may or may not be a consolation depending on your view on the OS. They allowed users of old 386 or 486 desktop PCs to enjoy a quick speed boost with...
