14. Averatec D1200
The Averatec D1200 ($999 list) is an all-in-one
desktop PC that not only looks like an HDTV, it can
also act like one. It can receive HDTV broadcasts,
record them, and play them back for you in full
1,920 by 1,200 resolution (HDTV is 1,920 by
1,080). It's powerful enough to display full HD
video from the Web or from your local TV stations.
You can also do exciting stuff like connect to your
social networks, or "serious" stuff like display
PowerPoint presentations or even set it up as a
display kiosk. It would work equally well in a
conference room as it would in the bedroom or
den. While far from perfect, it is a very good example of the convergence
between TV and computing that we've been promised since the mid 1990s.
Design
The D1200 looks like a 25.5-inch HDTV. There's the same glossy plastic, the
obvious "screen," and the clearly marked touch sensitive buttons on the front
panel. There's even an antenna hookup in the back. It isn't internally expandable
(only the memory slots are user accessible), but you can of course hook up USB
devices to the six USB ports (the system lacks FireWire or eSATA). The internal
320GB hard drive is sufficient for moderate use, but you'd want more space if
you like saving whole seasons of TV shows in HD. The D1200 is like a DVD/TV
combo: it has a DVD burner that can be used to watch movies. Also, since the
system comes with Windows Vista Home Premium, you can use the built-in
Media Center (MCE) software to watch and record TV from the ATSC/HDTV
tuner. Using a set-top box like the one from your cable provider is possible: just
make sure it has a "RF Out" or "Antenna Out." The D1200 doesn't have other A/
V inputs (like Component or HDMI) nor an IR blaster to control the set top box.
It works best as a TV hooked direct to your cable or antenna.
Features
Watching over the air (OTA) HDTV was a pretty good experience. Yes, you have
to go through the multi-step MCE setup procedure to get the TV listings and TV
tuner setup, but once you do, you can browse the listings and setup recordings
fairly easily. Surfing the channels is as easy as it is on any DVR. HD quality was
very good to excellent, depending on the channel. Our test lab is near the
Empire State Building, so the major channels came in smooth and clear. The
25.5-inch screen supported the full 1080i video from the antenna, as well as

15. 1080p HD videos from the Web. DVD movies looked fine on the screen, though I
wish that Blu-ray was an internal option. You could attach an external Blu-ray
player to the D1200, but that would spoil its clean lines.
The D1200 has touch-sensitive controls on the front panel for on/off, volume,
brightness, and LCD on/off. The last control lets you keep the system on for
recording programs, but allows the screen to rest and will make it seem like the
TV is "off." The latter function is important in the bedroom and conference room.
The D1200 comes with a wireless keyboard and mouse, and the slim IR remote
slips into a cubby hole in the keyboard: very clever! The IR remote itself is a nice
MCE one. It could be a little more robust (the battery door had a tendency to
pop open unexpectedly), but all in all it's a good TV/PC experience.
The desktop comes with a customized build of Vista Home Premium (64-bit), and
it's mostly good. Most of the bloatware offenders are omitted: no Microsoft Office
trial, AOL, or eBay for example. However there is still the spectre of Wild
Tangent Games (pay to download games), and the Norton AntiVirus subscription
is only 90 days instead of the 12-15 months we prefer. All in all it's a pretty
inoffensive setup.
Performance
At the multimedia tasks, the D1200 is a decent, if pedestrian performer. It is
able to complete the Windows Media Encoder test in 1 minute 7 seconds and the
PhotoShop CS4 test in two minutes. Of the two the WME test is more important,
thanks to the system's focus on video. Predictably, the D1200 is poor at 3D
tests, owing to its Intel integrated graphics. No worries, however, since the
D1200 is all about 2D video rather than 3D gaming.
The D1200 cements its place as the top of the line for Averatec's all in one PCs.
It's huge compared with the Averatec D1133 ($599 list), and seems much
sturdier. Also the D1133 is really a desktop/laptop replacement, while the D1200
is a HDTV with a PC built in. The D1200 compares well with the Apple iMac
(Nvidia GeForce 9400M): the D1200 is a whole lot cheaper, has a larger screen,
and has a TV tuner. True the iMac has better performance and is more business-
like, but the comparison has to be made. The Lenovo IdeaCentre A600
(3011-4BU) is closer: it also has TV capabilities and a HD screen. However the
A600 is more expensive due to better materials (particularly in the remote) and
the A600 has a Blu-ray drive for HD movies. The original A600 we looked at is
closer in price ($699), and lacks a TV tuner, but it's more powerful and holds on
to its All in One Editors' Choice. The Dell Studio One 19 and Cybernet iOne-GX31
have touchscreens, but the iOne is more of a business system, and the Studio
One 19 has a smaller screen and is more expensive. Overall, the D1200 does
well, but not well enough to unseat the Lenovo A600 nor the iMac from their
perches.

16. The Averatec D1200 is a hybrid: it's both a TV and a PC. Compared with its
predecessors, it nails the look and feel of a TV, for a lot less than the $2,500 that
Sony wanted for its LV series last year. The PC portion is no slouch; only a few
key omissions like Blu-ray and a smallish hard drive keep it from scoring higher.
If you would like to skip the Blu-ray format altogether and just view broadcast
HDTV and HD videos online, then the D1200 could be your choice for a TV/PC.

17. Bose QuietComfort 15
Bose invented the noise-canceling
headphone, so the company must
not have liked seeing companies
like Creative and Sennheiser
waltz right in and beat them at
their own game. With the
QuietComfort 15, however, Bose
takes back the category it
created. At $299.95 (direct), the
QC 15 replaces the QuietComfort
2; and while the more expensive
and more compact ($349.95
direct) QuietComfort 3 is still
available, it lacks the new-and-
improved noise-canceling circuitry, which is arguably the best feature
of the QC 15. Audio is still a bit too bright and the headphones tend to
distort on deep bass at very high volumes, they sound better than
previous QuietComfort models, and one thing is for certain: this is the
most effective noise-cancellation headphone pair you can buy, making
it our latest Editors' Choice.
At first glance, the QC 15 doesn't look very different than the QC 2—
and there's no real explanation as to why the model number jumped
so significantly. The familiar black circumaural (around-the-ear)
headphone design with silver ear cups has been emulated by several
competitors, and Bose stays true to its iconic look with this pair. As
always, the headphones fold flat to save space; they fit into a
redesigned, but very similar, sturdy black carrying case. Inside the
case: an airplane adapter, a long detachable audio cable, and one AAA
battery (there's no rechargeable cell like with the QC 3). A switch on
the right ear cup activates the noise-cancellation circuitry, which needs
to be on to hear audio. Since the cable is removable, however, you can
use them to simply block noise, and there won't be a cable dangling
awkwardly from your head. Bose estimates battery life at around 35
hours, but your actual mileage will depend on your usage level and the
battery you use.

18. By far the greatest thing about the QC 15 is its improved noise
cancellation. While the QC 2 and QC 3 both offer significant noise
attenuation, the Creative Aurvana X-Fi—our previous Editors' Choice in
this category—and the Sennheiser PXC 450 NoiseGard both rival
Bose's noise-cancellation performance. By adding a second
microphone—now there's a mic inside and outside of each ear cup—
and by using more advanced materials in the padded seal around the
ear, Bose has managed to significantly improve upon its previous
technology, lowering noise levels in both higher and lower frequency
ranges. Who knows whether it's the extra mic or the ear cups' seal
passively reducing noise that's the real game-changer here, but the
results are undeniable. Not only is the overall ambient rumble of a
train or an airplane engine significantly decreased, but there's no
audible high-frequency hiss, like you'll get with some other noise-
canceling headphone pairs. In an A-to-B comparison with the QC 3 and
the Aurvana X-Fi in a loud room, there was no question; the QC 15
prevailed. The noise-cancellation circuitry is the best you'll find, and
that's reason enough to buy the QC 15.
Adding to the allure, however, is improved audio performance over
previous QC models, although the QC 15 is not for audiophiles. Noise-
canceling headphones rarely deliver flat response, and this pair is no
exception. While its frequency response offers better bass response
than the QC 2, the pair can be overly bright—at times bringing more
clarity to an orchestral recording like Jonny Greenwood's score for
There Will Be Blood, but at others adding too much sibilance and
punch to vocals and piano hits in pop songs, like Grizzly Bear's Two
Weeks. Despite the improved bass response, there's still some
distortion at high-to-maximum volumes—the deep bass of The Knife's
Silent Shout made the QC 15 rattle when listening levels were pumped
up in my tests. Normally this would be a significant knock, but at safe-
to-moderately-high listening levels, there's no distortion whatsoever;
the bass is full and articulate. And the noise cancellation is so excellent
that the QC 15 can afford to be strong-but-not-perfect in the audio
department.
If audio quality is your first priority, skip the QC 15 and check out
Creative's $300 Aurvana X-Fi, which can deliver audio when in passive
mode (that is, when the noise cancellation is not activated and the
battery is not being used). The Aurvana X-Fi has no distortion issues,
and definitely handles the high frequency range with less exaggeration
and a little more grace. That said, I suspect most people looking for
noise-canceling headphones want to block out the rumble of a 737's

19. engine or the endless drone of a subway car. In this regard, the QC15
can't be beat. That it also offers high quality, if not astounding, audio
performance is a bonus. And let's not forget one other important factor
for travelers seeking refuge from noise on long trips: True to its name,
the Bose QuietComfort 15 is incredibly comfortable.
