Toshiba Qosmio X500 (X500-128) review
The 18.4-inch Qosmio X500-128 is as fast as it is big -- and it's pretty flippin' big. Its outpaced by the very fastest gaming rigs, but not by much, so, if you're looking for laptop with an enormous screen and high-speed graphics, you should think seriously about adding it to your shopping list Read more

The Asus U6S is one of the sexiest laptops we've ever seen. Its chocolate-coloured reflective cover is shiny enough to substitute a mirror and it's complemented by a brown leather wrist pad. With plenty of high-end components, this ultraportable has brains and beauty Read more

Alienware Aurora mALX review
The Aurora mALX is arguably the most audacious gaming laptop in Alienware's line-up. Not only is it airbrushed to give it a 'gamer' aesthetic, but it's also the first laptop to use 1GB of dedicated graphics memory -- giving it arguably the greatest graphics performance seen outside of a high-end gaming rig Read more
