HP 530 review

At a bargain price, you get more than you're paying for with the HP 530. The budget machine performs well and looks twice as expensive than it actually is. Added to this, it has a 15.4-inch widescreen display and built-in Wi-Fi and is perfect for anyone with more modest computing aspirations Read more

Samsung X50 review

Spreadsheet junkies will appreciate the X50's 15-inch screen, which is heavily anti-glared, making it ideal for work in a brightly lit office. It's easy to hook it up to projectors and televisions, but the lack of DVI make this an implausible machine for graphics professionals Read more

HP Compaq 6720s review

The HP Compaq 6720s is a business-oriented laptop on the budget end of the market. While it has a moderate specification, what this laptop does have works well. If you're spending time in the office rather than out on the road, this competent performer could be your answer Read more

Dell Studio 15 review

Sitting beween the budget Inspiron and high-end XPS, Dell's new Studio line is personified by the Dell Studio 15. This desktop replacement is a colourful and customisable option for those looking for a good mix of features and reasonable performance without paying the Earth Read more

Getac P470 review

The Getac P470 is one of the most rugged desktop replacement laptops in the business. It keeps things tough with its extremely robust carrying handle and eye-catching design indents. As it's also shock, drop and vibration resistant, you can take this bad boy on the road Read more

A very well-built laptop, the Acer TravelMate 6592 is a solid desktop replacement. It boasts an ergonomically curved keyboard for comfy typing. A reasonably powerful spec, good connectivity and acceptable battery life round out a well-priced package Read more

Asus F3E AP073C review

The Asus F3E AP073C laptop has impressive performance for the price you're paying. You get a copy of Windows Vista Home Premium and the machine has plenty of ports. A good all-rounder, it's got a good quality 15-inch display and isn't too bulky to carry around Read more

HP Compaq 6735s review

Whether its sober design will appeal depends on your tastes, but there's no denying that the 15.4-inch Compaq 6735s is a well-built machine. Its full-size keyboard is comfortable to type on, the matte finish on the screen means it's legible in all lighting conditions, and it's a capable performer too Read more

Toshiba Satellite Pro A100-415 review

For budget laptop, Toshiba's Satellite Pro A100 is seriously stylish. It has a good range of ports, too, and battery life isn't bad. We do wish it had a bigger hard drive though, and it needs more memory to be able to cope with the demands of Vista Read more

Dell Latitude E6420 hands-on

The 14-inch Dell Latitude E6420 may have a sturdy shell and decent battery, but its unappealing design isn't likely to impress your business contacts. Our sample's performance wasn't great either. Read more
