LG GBW-H10N review
The LG GBW-H10N is an easy-to-install internal optical drive. As well as being able to play Blu-ray movies, its main claim to fame is that it's the world's first 4x drive, meaning it can write up to 25GB of data to a Blu-ray Disc at 18MBps -- far quicker than the 4.5MBps achievable with 1x drives Read more

Acer Aspire One review
The Acer Aspire One arrives fashionably late to the mini laptop party, but it sashays in with flair. Available in either Linux or Windows XP versions, the One is attractive, lightweight and offers great performance for a low price. Does it spoil the netbook night for the Eee PC? Read more

Toshiba Portege R500-10U review

Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook Q2010 review
The Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook Q2010 is an unbelievably small -- tinier than a sheet of A4 paper -- and light ultraportable laptop weighing in at just 1kg. It performs well and has a 12.1-inch glossy screen, which produces good colours. Extended battery life is excellent on this machine Read more

Sony Vaio P-series Lifestyle PC review
The Vaio P-series Lifestyle PC is elegantly designed and one of the smallest laptops we've seen, standing out from the netbook crowd with an impressive array of features. It also has a large keyboard and high-res screen, but its usability suffers from the lack of a standard touch pad Read more

Toshiba NB100 review
The 8.9-inch NB100's internal components are fairly standard for a netbook, but it boasts a professional-looking design and a screen that benefits from Toshiba's TruBrite technology, offering richer and more vivid colours than competitors. While the keyboard is cramped, battery life is impressive Read more

LaCie Brick Desktop Hard Drive (250GB) review
The LaCie Brick makes for a practical and inexpensive, uniquely designed desktop drive that should suit the needs of almost any consumer in the storage market. It's doesn't hang around with transfer speeds either, and if you throw on some blue and white Bricks, you've got yourself a storage Lego fortress to be reckoned with Read more
