Alienware M17x (Core i7) review
Alienware has updated its high-end, 17-inch M17x gaming laptop with some new components, and the result is an incredibly powerful machine. Using it feels like getting punched in the face by God -- in a good way. It's expensive, though, and it's about as portable as a bath full of cement Read more

Sony's T series has always represented the ultimate in ultraportable computing and its latest incarnation, the TT epitomises everything the series stands for: it's attractive, has great connectivity and is highly portable.

There's no denying that the Ferrari One is the best netbook so far, offering a larger-than-usual, 11.6-inch screen, speedy performance, and a truly excellent keyboard.

Sony Vaio CW series (VPCCW1S1E) review
The 14-inch Vaio VPCCW1S1E is an excellent entertainment laptop. It looks stylish, its screen handles movies well, and, as usual with Sony machines, its keyboard is very good. It's no slouch in the performance stakes either, offering enough power to satisfy all but the most demanding gamer Read more

Samsung R780 review
For the price, the 17.3-inch R780 is a great multimedia laptop. It looks great, it's comfortable to use and it offers solid performance, as well as an impressively bright screen. Its battery life is fairly pants, but otherwise it'll serve you well without breaking the bank Read more

Capable of being configured to your heart's delight, the 15.6-inch M15x gaming laptop can quickly become very pricey, and it's not particularly portable either, but there's no denying that it's a powerful performer. You'd be hard-pressed to find a better-built or faster 15-inch laptop Read more
