Acer Timeline Aspire 4810T review

Those who want an Apple MacBook Air, but can't stomach the price, should check out the 14-inch Timeline Aspire 4810T. Compared to most laptops, it's incredibly thin and light, and, while it's not the best-looking or fastest machine, it's a bargain at its current price Read more

Samsung Q430 review

The worst we can say about the 14-inch Samsung Q430 laptop is that some of its features are merely standard, rather than really impressive. But, overall, this is a light, powerful, stylish and affordable laptop that's a pleasure to use. Read more

Advent 9112 review

You'd usually pay a premium to get a thin-and-light laptop, but not with Advent's tiny 9112. This laptop doesn't cut corners when it comes to performance -- it's powerful enough to use for office and Web applications, but still small enough to carry around with you Read more

Asus W5Fe review

Asus has a track record of releasing innovative laptops, and its latest endeavour takes advantage of SideShow -- one of Windows Vista's most dramatic new features, which lets you look at pics and listen to music using an external second screen Read more

Asus U46SV review

The Asus U46SV may be at the heavier end of 'portable', but it's slim enough to slide into a bag and has the power to tackle all your office work and even a spot of gaming. Read more

Toshiba Tecra R840 review

The 14-inch Toshiba Tecra R840-11E is a good option if you need a laptop for work purposes. It has a great keyboard, plenty of grunt, and it's small and light enough to comfortably carry around. Read more

MSI X600 review

If you like ostentatious laptops, the 15.6-inch X600 probably isn't for you. This thin-and-light laptop is about as conspicuous as a stealth bomber, but it's a gorgeous specimen nonetheless, and its ultra-low-voltage CPU delivers surprisingly good performance Read more
