Mesh X-treme FX60 review

Reviews Mesh has chosen to install this beast of a CPU on top of the proven Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe motherboard. Mesh has equipped the X-treme FX60 with twin optical drives and above these a floppy disc drive -- a strange contrast with the PC's ultra-modern...

Mesh MSI M670-S2 review

Reviews One thing to note is that although it's being sold by Mesh, it is in fact made by MSI and branded as such. The Mesh MSI M670-S2 is a good example. You won't be able to buy it from the Mesh site until Monday 7 May, but until then you can ring 0844...

Mesh MSI PR600 review

Reviews Mesh makes its own PCs but it doesn't make its own laptops. Instead, it takes machines like this one -- the MSI PR600 -- and resells it under its own brand name. The laptop is built around Intel's latest power-saving Centrino technology for laptops...

Mesh Elite Quad 6600 FX review

Reviews The Mesh Elite Quad 6600 FX is all about value for money. It's more of a PR stunt for Mesh Computers than anything else, but don't let that turn you away -- any quad-core PC costing less than £700 shouldn't be sniffed at.

Best cheap laptops for £499 and under

Reviews Laptops are now so popular they outsell desktop PCs in Western Europe. It's not difficult to see why -- a few years ago, if you were looking for a new machine, you'd expect to spend well over a grand, but these days you can pick up a decent model...

Best laptops for £799 or less

Reviews It's not difficult to see why laptops have been gradually gaining in popularity. Prices have fallen and modern laptops aren't far off desktop PCs in terms of raw performance. They're also a much more convenient option, especially if you're tight on...

Asus Nova Lite Mini 2L review

Reviews The front of the PC is home to a slot-loading DVD drive, touch-sensitive buttons and a panel with a mottled silver mesh, all of which looks stunning. This lives below a mesh on the top panel and is much like the speakers you find in laptops.

Toshiba Satellite Pro A100-415 review

Reviews Unlike the Acer Aspire 3693WLWi and the Mesh MSI M670-S1 budget laptops, it doesn't have a glossy finish, so colours in movies and pictures don't look quite as vivid as they do on those models, although it is easier to read text on the screen in...

OLPC XO-1 (One Laptop Per Child) review

Reviews Not only do you get full 802.11b/g functionality, but also 802.11s, which enables mesh networking -- even when powered down. There are dedicated buttons to pull up graphical maps of your local mesh 'group' and wider wireless neighbourhood.

Shuttle XPC P 2500G review

Reviews At the default screen resolution of 1,280x1,024 it achieved a 3DMark 2006 score of 5,565, which is just 3,268 less than the Mesh X-treme FX60 PC, which has the luxury of a dual-graphics card. It is housed in the SN25P Barebones chassis, a unit...

Goodmans GSR80DAB review

Reviews DesignWith its mesh front and big volume control, the GSR80 reminds us of an '80s ghetto blaster. The Goodmans GSR80DAB is a great-looking digital radio with the added bonus of FM built in. It has problems, though, when it comes to the audio it...

Bose SoundDock Portable review

Reviews It's encased in a tough, glossy plastic with a metal mesh covering the speakers. The original Bose SoundDock is a popular choice for iPod owners -- it offers a more impressive audio experience than many other competing systems.

PURE Digital Chronos iDock review

Reviews Metallic mesh-covered speakers sit either side of said face, resulting in true stereo -- not a common feature of PURE's bedside contraptions. Until recently, DAB radios never consorted with iPods -- they were two entities, two non-converging markets.

PURE Digital Evoke-1S review

Reviews A single speaker driver sits behind a silver metal mesh, to the rear of which is a small bass reflex port. The Evoke-1S is an attractive new portable DAB radio, from the popular DAB manufacturer PURE Digital.

Logic3 JiveBox review

Reviews Beneath the detachable mesh sit five speakers: a pair of 75mm drivers, a pair of 25mm tweeters and an 130mm subwoofer, backed up by a passive radiator underneath the system. The Logic3 JiveBox is a curious system.
