Looking for a midprice PC for a budding digital media enthusiast? The HP Pavilion a6460t ($929 direct) is a Media Center PC that fills the bill, providing quad-core power, enough 3D performance for simple tasks, and a decent design. It's good for people who want to dabble in creating digital video, photos, and music, though it's also fine for people who just want to watch and listen to multimedia. The downside is that it has a mess of bloatware, and it's not as convenient to upgrade as some of its competitors.
