Games/consoles are in bold, although the processors and the video card could be considered gaming-related... anyway, here they are:

10. Alienware's Video Array
9. Intel's Pentium 4 at 4 GHz
8. Apple Computer's G5 Chips at 3 GHz
7. Team Fortress 2: Brotherhood of Arms
6. Gran Turismo 4
5. ATI's Radeon X800 series of video cards
4. TiVoToGo
3. Microsoft's Longhorn
2. CherryOS
1. Phantom Game Console


And for those of you wondering, Duke Nukem Forever was given a Lifetime Achievement Award last year so it no longer qualifies.
 
I did. Both Fry's and Computer Stop here have had X800 cards for sale through December.

They probably wrote the article in Oct/Nov. Not an excuse, just what happened in all likelihood.
 
TF2 deserves it's placement.

Valve releasing Day of Defeat as a Source engine game...well... why didn't Gabe just visit every loyal TFC player, shit down their mouths and urinate in our eyes?

Let the ghost of Christmas past take you back...

The first pic of the game when it was supposed to be released as a Half Life expansion pack.

Later shots of the version using a new engine (obvious to see the genesis of the high quality HL2 model faces)
