- Gateway P-6831FX
- Editor's Note: We've heard from Best Buy, and the company tells us this laptop will be available for $1,199 starting February 17, 2008. That represents an excellent value, and mitigates our disappointment over the original jump from the MSRP of $1,350 to the current $1,699. We are withholding our...

- Denon DHT-FS3
- After you've heard a few virtual surround speakers, you realize there's not a whole lot of surround sound coming out of these things. Yes, the better ones project sound beyond the width of the speaker and well into the room, but only if you're sitting directly in front of the...

- Panasonic SA-BX500
- Panasonic is hardly the first name we think of when it comes to AV receivers. It's been years since we last saw one, so we weren't sure what to expect from Panasonic's latest entry, the SA-BX500. Depending on your taste, the look is tastefully conservative or just downright boring. The...
