HP's new Media Center m1050y Photosmart PC
PC Magazine has a review of HP's Media Center m1050y Photosmart PC — which despite the name doesn't seem any more geared to digital photography than any other desktop with memory card reader. It comes decked out with a 3.6GHz processor, 1GB of RAM, a 250GB hard drive, DVD+RW drive and a DVD-ROM drive, an ATI Radeon X600 graphics card, and last, but not least, a 160GB removable Personal Media Drive which fits into a special docking bay. We've totally ragged on the Personal Media Drive before, since it doesn't do all the much to improve upon regular external hard drives and it costs a lot, but we wouldn't exactly complain if we found one tossed into our next desktop. PC Mag actually gives the m1050y pretty high marks across the board.
