Mini, the world’s smallest desktop--even smaller than the Dell Studio Hybrid. With the solid 2.0Ghz Intel core 2 duo processor, which will make the small package up to 39% faster than a regular desktop, coupled with arguably the most advanced operating system (Leopard), this computer will be a benchmark in the world’s technology. Mac Mini can run all of your modern and original software and programs with the option to buy all of Apple’s new software at the Apple Retail Store. What’s amazing about the Mini is that it’s only 6.5 inches square and only 2 inches tall, but yet it can still pack in a 120Gb hard drive, 4 USB ports, 1 Firewire port, Audio in/out ports, 10/100/1000 Ethernet port, and a DVI/VGA display port.Pros: Quiet, compact, inexpensive, quick, very useful applications and software, and excellent display support.
Cons: Limited disk quality, capacity, and performance; very difficult to access the internals and you may experience some display problems.
Andrew’s Take: I think that the Mac Mini is a good choice in computer due to a lot of the smaller computers lacking a lot of performance and some even lacking CD-DVD ROM drives. This computer comes with it all: a CD-DVD ROM drive, a digital video interface hookup, Firewire, and 4 USB ports. This computer will be dominant over all hybrid computers.
Mitsubishi, one of the leading Japanese car companies, has done it again and made a splash in the television world with their 65-inch and 73-inch LaserVue (PDF) TV. These TVs offer twice the 
current color of the current Hi-Def screens and only uses half the power of the current Hi-Def screens. This huge TV sports four HDMI/CEC inputs, is 3-D-ready for gaming and movies, has easy connect setup, an ultra-thin frame, and is wall-mountable.
Pros: Twice the color, half the energy being used, 3-D-ready, 1080P display,
Cons: Size and price: no smaller than 65-inch and the price is around $7,000 dollars for a 65-inch TV

Andrew’s Take: If I had the cash for a $7,000 dollar television I would definitely buy it because it helps save energy as well, but to me it’s not worth it because there is nothing wrong with HDTVs, and there are already TVs out there that are capable of 1080p that do not cost $7,000, or even $3,000.
Windows Vista was just released sometime last January, and the developers are already back at it with Windows 7. Windows 7 is the new operating system from Microsoft with the code name ”Black Bomb.” Windows 7 already boots up twenty percent faster than Windows
XP. Windows XP (service pack 3) takes at least 40 seconds to boot. Windows 7 Ultimate took 33 seconds, and it took Windows Vista 22 seconds to boot. Even with these small versions out, there are some that have locked features, such as the start bar, so no one can access them. Some of the new features are you can now pin icons to your start bar, there’s a new interface composed with the ribbon system, which is graphical user interface widgets, made up of a strip across the top of the window that shows all the function that window can do to deliver better graphics, and gadgets for Windows Media Player and Internet Explorer, too.

Andrew’s Take: I think that this will be a fair competitor to Apple’s Leopard OS, but will still not overcome them due to some small features that people may not enjoy, like not booting up as fast as Vista, unwanted/unneeded programs and software, and you can’t hook it up to anything due to the ease and simplicity of Apple’s OS. Apple’s Time Machine works faster than Windows’ System Restore does, and if you really want to, you can run Windows on a Mac.
