Acer Aspire 9802WKMi review

Reviews These are joined by the Acer Arcade button, which launches a clone of the Media Center portion of the Windows XP Media Center Edition operating system. The laptop doesn't use Windows XP Media Center Edition, but browsing your multimedia files is...

Acer Aspire 6920G review

Reviews It's especially useful for controlling Windows Media Center or Acer's own Arcade Deluxe media player software. The Acer Aspire 6920G is part of the company's new Gemstone Blue range of entertainment-focused laptops that all sport Blu-ray drives.

Reviews The styling is rather retro: start-up and shut down are greeted with a loud electronic fanfare reminiscent of an 80s arcade shoot 'em up. The MP721c sits in the middle of BenQ's projector line-up, supplementing the range with a lower-cost...

Sagem myX-8 review

Reviews Alive and Fearless is an arcade-style alien-shooter, and we felt it required more agility than the small joypad could deliver. It's bright and quirky in many respects, and although it looks all mouth, it has the trousers -- it's pretty clever, both...

Acer Aspire 8920G preview

Reviews It does, however, work in Acer's own Acer Arcade Deluxe -- a Media Center facsimile -- but this is no substitute for the real thing. They were excellent products, spoiled only -- we believe -- by the questionable styling.

Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin iPod speaker review
