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

HP Compaq Presario CQ70-116 review

The CQ70-116 is a sturdy, minimalist, desktop-replacement laptop with a 17-inch screen and a remarkably low price tag. A slow processor and poor graphics mean this isn't a laptop for gamers, but those seeking a general-purpose machine will find that the CQ70-116 delivers the goods Read more

Advent 9515 review

The Advent 9515 desktop replacement laptop does what it says on the tin -- and does it well. Using an AMD processor chip rather than Intel, the 9515 still has great application performance and its large hard drive and DVD writer will keep your documents safe Read more

Toshiba Equium L40-17M review

The Toshiba Equium L40-17M is certainly a capable desktop replacement. Plus, if you're tightening your purse strings, it will fit the bill. Packing a decent spec laptop that will complete your office tasks into a low-cost package isn't an easy task, but it's one that this Toshiba has largely pulled off Read more

eMachines G420 review

The eMachines G420 offers a large, 17.1-inch screen for very little outlay, but the laptop's 1GB of RAM limits its multitasking capabilities. Read more

Advent 9415 review

A low price tag doesn't have to mean you settle for obsolete technology or outdated components on your laptop. Enter the Advent 9415. With this desktop replacement, you can get reasonable specifications and good performance for a steal of a price Read more

Advent 6441 review

The 6441 is commendably cheap for a laptop with a Blu-ray drive and a 17-inch screen. But, with a poor-quality keyboard and trackpad, and a relatively slow processor and graphics, it's hard to avoid the feeling that Advent compromised on quality in pursuit of a low price tag Read more
