Acer Aspire 9802WKMi review
It's too large to be considered a traditional laptop, and it lacks the upgradeability of a desktop PC. However, like the well-received M2010, the Aspire 9802WKMi does have a place. It should appeal to users who want a Media Center computer with a large screen, plenty of power and moderate portability Read more

Apple MacBook Pro (17-inch, 2.33GHz) review
The high-end 17-inch Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro mixes Apple's lauded industrial design and user-friendly operating system with the kind of high-end hardware usually seen only on the PC side, yet it's still very light for a laptop of this size. It's a good choice for anyone needing an easily transportable big-screen laptop Read more

Samsung RF710 review
The 17.3-inch Samsung RF710-S03UK looks okay and offers decent performance for your cash. But, while it's a good all-rounder, we've seen other laptops perform better for less money. Read more

Fujitsu LifeBook E780 review
The 15.6-inch Fujitsu LifeBook E780 is a speedy performer, has good security features and impressive build quality, but its high price and poor screen and keyboard let it down somewhat. Read more

Dell Precision M4500 review
It's not pretty, but the 15.6-inch Dell Precision M4500 delivers potent performance. If you value function over form and have deep pockets, we reckon it's worth considering. Read more

HP Pavilion dv9790ea review
If you're after a desktop replacement laptop that'll handle strenuous activity, the dv9790ea is more than fit enough for the job. It's powered by a fast 2.5GHz Intel Core 2 Duo T9300, backed up by a generous 4GB of RAM, so it's no surprise that it breaks little sweat in terms of performance Read more

Asus W2Vc review
A powerful, feature-rich laptop, the W2Vc offers impressive performance and a fairly attractive design. It's not the cheapest of laptops, or the most portable, but it's worth considering if you want a good all-rounder with a strong focus on multimedia Read more

Toshiba Qosmio F750-10Q review
The 15.6-inch Toshiba Qosmio F750-10Q has some powerful components. Its glasses-free 3D system is interesting, but we're not totally convinced by it. Read more

Sony Vaio S series (VPCS11V9E/B) review
The 13.3-inch Vaio S-series VPCS11V9E/B laptop is a respectable replacement for a desktop PC. Its battery life isn't particularly inspiring, but it compensates for this with its strong performance, comfortable keyboard, and handy integrated 3G modem, for go-anywhere Internet access Read more

rockdirect Hardbook review
While most of us are unlikely to run into urban combat situations, there is always the risk of dropping your laptop or spilling a cappuccino into it. rockdirect's Hardbook has a specially ruggedised case for those who need to compute in hazardous conditions -- or are just extremely clumsy Read more
