HP Compaq 8000 Elite Series review
The Compaq 8000 Elite Series is a spartan range of office designed desktops, harnessing power and efficiency for no nonsense work. The series comes in three configurations, including the Convertible Minitower which is pretty much a larger version of the Small Form Factor and the Ultra-Slim which comes with slightly downgraded specs to allow for its [...]
Lenovo ThinkPad T410 review
The ThinkPad range are traditionally very executive notebooks and the T Series has not strayed from that formula.

HP Compaq 8100 Elite Series review
There are few distinguishing features between the two models in HP’s 8100 Series and as you may have assumed the Small Form Factor is the more compact of the two. HP has designed numerous long lasting and reliable machines, as business desktops go the plain exterior may appear vulgar to some but the 8100′s are [...]
Adobe After Effects CS5 review
