The Sony VAIO VGX-TP25E ($3,000 direct) is a pricey Digital Entertainment System (DES) or home theater PC with a unique and attractive design. It's meant to sit in your theater cabinet next to the widescreen HDTV. As a home-theater system, it drops some features common to desktop PCs yet adds others that acclimate it to the living-room environment. Though it isn't perfect, the TP25E is a really good fit for the PC you want to hook up to the 65-inch plasma. The TP25E is "mostly wireless," which cuts down on the visual clutter, but there is a big caveat to that statement (read on, dear reader). Blu-ray and a new Penryn-based processor are tech highlights. If you have the means (and the desire), the TP25E is a good choice for the HD-consuming connoisseur.
