Dell should bundle a big supply of popcorn with its new Inspiron 8500 series because the laptop's awesome 15.4-inch, wide-aspect display will have you watching DVD movies all night. This completely redesigned desktop replacement has plenty more in store as well, including the fastest mobile Pentium 4-M CPUs; integrated dual-band antennae for 802.11b and 802.11g wireless; and sizzling performance. All of these features are wrapped in a silver case that you can customize with QuickSnap lid covers in a variety of colors. For all that it offers, the Inspiron 8500 series's $2,299 starting price is reasonable. Any way you slice it, you'd be hard-pressed to come up with a cooler, faster desktop replacement than the Inspiron 8500 series, and it's one of our top picks in this category, even though it gets a less-than-stellar ValueWatch rating.
