| Bottom line | Info unavailable | With or without its new Fusion hybrid drive, Apple finally has a
Mac Mini that competes well against mainstream Windows PCs in the same price range. | Apple sticks to the fundamentals with the new
iMac, relying on design, strong features, and overall polish to maintain its leadership among high-end all-in-ones. | Apple's
Mac Pro has design innovations that we hope will cross over to other systems. Its performance is as strong as you'd expect for a system in its class, and it's priced right, too. You might need more flexibility in your config options, especially for 3D design, but otherwise, the Mac Pro is as solid a professional-class PC as we've seen. | Updated with a touch screen, a new stand, and up-to-date components, the Dell XPS One 27 leads the inaugural class of
Windows 8 PCs. |
