HP Pavilion dv3-2230ea preview hands-on
The 13.3-inch Pavilion dv3-2230ea entertainment laptop could probably do with a more powerful GPU, but it compensates for this with a feature that, for the moment, makes it unique: its multi-touch display. It's also relatively portable and should prove a solid performer, offering decent value for money overall Read more

Sony Vaio VPCF21Z1E/BI hands-on
The 16-inch Sony Vaio VPCF21Z1E/BI offers some cool 3D features and really powerful innards. You'll need a little sit down and a warm drink after seeing its price tag, however. Read more

Dell Vostro 1400 preview hands-on
Let's not put too fine a point on it: the Dell Vostro 1400 thin-and-light laptop is fantastic value for money. There aren't many laptops as cheap or as configurable as the Vostro series. This model is perfect for light users and you can always upgrade it with faster components Read more

Dell Latitude E4200 preview hands-on
The Dell Latitude E4200 is tiny -- its screen is just 12 inches and it weighs less than 1Kg -- and it'll come with all manner of ways to connect to the Internet: 3G, WiMax, 802.11n Wi-Fi. On top of all that, it's attractive, with a definite air of 'cool' about it Read more
