Giada A50 Fusion Ultra PC
A decent system at a slightly higher than expected price, Giada’s A50 isn’t one Compact PC to overlook.
The A50 earned a WorldBench 6 score of 55--close to the eMachines ER1402-05's mark of 62.
Like most compact PCs, the A50 offers few opportunities for future upgrading. Giada put the system's front-panel connections (a multiformat card reader and a USB 3.0 port) on the top of the A50's tiny case instead of on the system's front, where we prefer them to be.
Rear connections include four USB ports, one HDMI port, a VGA port, and gigabit ethernet. Wireless-N connectivity is built into the system itself.
Our review unit arrived without a mouse or a keyboard shipped with the system, but there is an included remote control (and to our pleasure, an HDMI cable).
Ultimately, the Giada A50 Fusion Ultra PC asks prospective buyers to decide whether its additional 160GB of storage space is worth the extra $150 it costs over the eMachines ER1402-05. In other respects, the two systems are extremely similar.
