Alienware M11x review
The 11.6-inch M11x is something we never thought we'd see: a gaming netbook. But don't let the 'n' word put you off, because, despite its compact size, the M11x can tear strips off larger machines when it comes to performance. Comfortable to use, portable and blisteringly quick, it's a stunning piece of kit 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

HP HDX X16 review
It's pricey but the 16-inch HDX X16 is a fantastic entertainment laptop, offering great performance and impressive audio capability. High-definition movies via the Blu-ray drive also look great on the 'Full HD', 1,920x1,080-pixel display. We've got to say, though, that the paint job is awful Read more

Acer Travelmate 8204WLMi review
We're not joking. Acer has sped this Core Duo laptop to market, and it's the real thing: portable, with excellent battery life and it's blisteringly quick. It may not be the epitome of style, and dedicated gaming laptops may have better graphics cards, but for under £2,000, this is a fantastic bargain Read more

Apple MacBook (Core 2 Duo 2.0GHz) review
Apple's 13.3-inch MacBooks with Core 2 Duo, available in the standard Apple colours of black and white, are nearly as powerful as their 15- and 17-inch Pro cousins, and they include a lot of the same features -- they're a no-brainer for anyone who wants to step up to an Apple laptop or upgrade their older MacBook Read more

The 15.6-inch UL50Vt is an excellent desktop-replacement laptop that you'd be proud to take to and from the office. It looks great for a machine of its size, it's comfortable to use, it offers excellent battery life, and it has switchable graphics cards that let you prioritise either battery life or performance Read more
