rockdirect Xtreme CTX T7400 review

The rockdirect Xtreme CTX T7400 is among the first laptops available in the UK to use an Intel next-generation Core 2 Duo processor. Intel says the Core 2 Duo is up to 20 per cent faster than its predecessor and this PC's intimidating performance confirmed that. Shame about the chassis, though Read more

rockdirect Xtreme Ti review

While some may be put off by the Xtreme Ti's overwhelming weight and extortionate price, bulky laptops like this are the only option if you need cutting-edge gaming performance in a luggable device. The design isn't as extreme as the Alienware's Area 51m, but that might be an advantage if you want it for tasks other than eye-bleedingly fast gaming Read more

rockdirect Xtreme 64 review

Not content with making the first laptop to use a dual-core CPU, rockdirect has also crammed in an Nvidia GeForce 7800 GTX Go graphics adaptor, the fastest mobile graphics chip available. This is not so much a desktop replacement as an improvement -- but it's very expensive, very hot and very, very heavy 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

rockdirect Xtreme SL review

The rockdirect Xtreme SL is one of the first laptops to use two graphics cards. It sounds the death knell for the days when laptops were perceived as poor gaming devices, and is part of a new breed of laptop that uses a 19-inch screen. It might be rather dull to look at, but boy, can it shift polygons Read more

rock Pegasus 335 review

The Pegasus 335 is a no-fuss ultraportable laptop that's all about convenience. It's small and light enough to be taken out in a rucksack and can be used in the home, too. Best of all, it includes an Instant On button that allows you to play music and movies without starting Windows. Now that's convenient Read more

Gaming laptops

So you thought laptops were no good for gaming, did you? Well, if you get to grips with mobile graphics technology, that wait for the Nintendo Wii may not feel quite so long Read more

Desktop-replacement laptops

Desktop-replacement laptops are a great alternative to owning a full-sized PC. They have the advantage of being portable (or at least luggable) and many of the latest models offer performance in line with the fastest desktop PCs... Read more
