At A Glance

This cart is a very handy accessory for Lenovo's IdeaCentre Horizon, but you'll want to be aware of a couple design shortcomings before buying one.

At $999, the Cintiq 13HD is a wonderful small-screen tablet display and an easy purchase. It’s held back only by its lack of Multi-Touch.

Dell's Wireless Dock D5000 is awesome—as long as you don't mind being tied to Dell's Latitude 6430u Ultrabook.

The Locus Workstation may not fit into every budget, but for workers looking to invest in an ergonomic, height adjustable workstation, it is an excellent choice
