LibreOffice 3.5

It's had a code clear-out, and it's pulling away from its OpenOffice roots. Does it have Microsoft in its sights at last?

VeryPC Broadleaf

It's carbon-offset, made without toxins and has an admirably low power draw, but is VeryPC's latest green machine actually any good?

Samsung SDP-860

Samsung isn't usually known for its classroom electronics, but how does its compact unit get on in our real-world tests?

WolfVision VZ-3

The VZ-3 costs almost £2,000. Is there any way in which the WolfVision can justify its price to schools?

Genee Vision 6100

A more expensive product that combines features with style - could this be a choice for the trendier teacher?

Genee Vision 150

Genee's Vision 150 might be the firm's entry-level product, but there's still much to like in its glossy white frame

Elmo L-1ex

A simple setup procedure makes this seem ideal for classroom use. We put Elmo's latest visualiser to the test

AVerVision 355AF

A light and compact unit with an emphasis on portability, but does that mean this suffers in other departments?

Serif Photo Plus X4

A range of filters and effects in a package that's easily deployed over a school network - what's not to like?

Pixelmator

This Mac-only package tries something different - but does it succeed?

Paint.NET

It started life as a replacement for Windows Paint, but Paint.NET is now much more. But is it worth your time?

Google Picasa 3

Google's Picasa is free, but can it compete with paid-for packages from Adobe and the rest?

Corel PaintShop Photo Pro X3

Corel's latest effort serves up plenty of features, but is it easy to use?

Shuttle XS35

A barebones system that comes with an OS and for a bargain-basement price - just £190 exc VAT.

RM miniPC ecoquiet 210

RM's latest machine foregoes flashy features for sheer strength. We find out if it'll withstand the average classroom

PC Specialist Mini Desktop PC

This small British firm stands up to the big boys, but does it have the muscle to compete in the classroom?

Dell Optiplex 390

Dell's Optiplex is one of the most versatile options around. We put the firm's latest do-it-all PC through the PC Pro benchmarks

Apple Mac Mini

Apple is known for its stylish products, so how does its Mac Mini fare in the classroom?

Acer Veriton N282G

Acer's Veriton is one of the smallest desktop PCs we've seen, but is it just too tiny for its own good?

Toshiba Satellite Pro R850-16H

A bright screen, fine keyboard and great software - is there anything that this Toshiba can't do?
