Toshiba Satellite L650 review
The 15.6-inch Satellite L650-12Q may be cheap, but it offers plenty of reasons to be cheerful. It looks good, it's well built, and it'll handle with aplomb pretty much anything you throw at it. As long as you don't mind its limited connectivity options, this machine will put a smile on your Chevy Chase Read more

Acer Aspire 1825PT review
The 11.6-inch Aspire 1825PT is a two-trick pony. You can either use it as you would a normal laptop, or you can swivel its touchscreen around and use it as an iPad-esque tablet PC. Either way, our review sample's performance proved pleasingly zippy, and it offers greater connectivity than Apple's device too Read more

ViewSonic ViewBook Pro review
The 13.3-inch ViewBook Pro borrows heavily from Apple's MacBook Pro in terms of design, but it costs significantly less. As long as you don't push it too hard, it'll make a decent travel companion. It also packs some useful extras, such as a fingerprint reader that lets you log into your favourite Web sites without a password Read more

Sony Vaio Y series (VPCY11M1E/S) review
The slender, 13.3-inch Vaio VPCY11M1E/S won't make you yelp with excitement when it comes to performance, but it is very comfortable to use, with an excellent keyboard. Its funky bundled software also allows you to share media between the laptop and other devices, such as a PlayStation 3 or television Read more

Alienware M11x review
The 11.6-inch M11x is something we never thought we'd see: a gaming netbook. But don't let the 'n' word put you off, because, despite its compact size, the M11x can tear strips off larger machines when it comes to performance. Comfortable to use, portable and blisteringly quick, it's a stunning piece of kit Read more

Asus UL50Vt review
The 15.6-inch UL50Vt is an excellent desktop-replacement laptop that you'd be proud to take to and from the office. It looks great for a machine of its size, it's comfortable to use, it offers excellent battery life, and it has switchable graphics cards that let you prioritise either battery life or performance Read more

Toshiba Satellite T130 review
The configuration of the 13-inch T130 laptop that we review here, the T130-13M, isn't going to make your brain melt out of your nose with its performance, but it's got its charms nevertheless. It looks great, offers good battery life and perfectly combines portability, usability and comfort Read more

Acer Aspire 5738 3D review
The 15.6-inch Aspire 5738 3D is the world's first laptop to sport a 3D screen. Under the right conditions and with suitable material, the 3D effect is impressive, gimmicky though it may be. And, even without this party trick, the 5738 3D is an impressive machine, thanks to its speedy CPU Read more

Toshiba Satellite A500 review
The 16-inch Satellite A500 caters well to those who have a limited budget but still want a machine that will let them watch movies, listen to music and play the odd game. Its screen could do with a higher resolution, but it feels bomb-proof, it's pretty speedy and it looks fairly attractive Read more

Advent Altro review
The 13.3-inch Altro is an unashamed attempt to emulate the MacBook Air. Considering it's almost half the price, it doesn't do too bad a job. Offering 3GB of RAM, strong wireless capabilities and a good keyboard, it's worth a look for those after a relatively cheap thin-and-light laptop Read more
