Sony Vaio NR series (VGN-NR11Z/S) review
You get more for your money with the Sony Vaio NR series. The specs on this laptop are similar to models costing twice as much. Plus, with a 15.4-inch screen, you and a mate wouldn't be squished while watching a film. If you're after a bargain laptop from a respected manufacturer, look no further Read more

Fujitsu LifeBook T900 review
The 13.3-inch Fujitsu LifeBook T900 has an excellent touchscreen and is a fast performer, but its poor battery life and chunky design let it down. Read more

Apple MacBook Pro (1.83GHz) review
Apple's first new laptop since the company switched to Intel processors, the 15.4-inch MacBook Pro ushers in a new era of Apple computing. While this gives Apple the potential to match the performance of Windows-based machines, the first MacBook Pro shows signs of the growing pains Apple faces in switching to the new platform Read more

Fujitsu LifeBook T580 review
The 10.1-inch Fujitsu LifeBook T580 is a decent ultra-portable laptop, but it's less successful when you twist the screen and put it into tablet mode, due to its small screen and chunky dimensions. Read more

Acer Aspire 3694WLMi review
The budget Acer Aspire 3694WLMi laptop holds its own in the performance stakes and its 15.4-inch glossy screen offers better colour reproduction than most. It's also well connected with four USB ports and a card reader makes it easy to transfer snaps from your camera Read more

Toshiba Satellite L300 review
Toshiba has a strong reputation for being able to put together budget laptops that have the look and feel of more expensive machines. The L300 has a rock-bottom price tag of just £390, so we were intrigued to see whether Toshiba had managed once again to avoid the usual pitfalls of budget machines 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 Inspiron 1525 review
Dell's Inspiron 1525 is an excellent choice for basic computing and will set you back less than £400. It may strain under a heavy uni workload of writing essays and encoding MP3s, but its battery life is actually better than more powerful configurations available and it has cool touch-sensitive media controls 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
