Sony's Vaio VGN-AR11S is the first laptop to use an integrated Blu-ray drive. It's also the first laptop we've seen that uses a 1080i-capable display with HDCP decoding capability, giving it full high-definition readiness. It uses a fast processor and features a pair of 100GB hard drives, making it a good all-rounder Read more

Alienware M17x (Core i7) review

Alienware has updated its high-end, 17-inch M17x gaming laptop with some new components, and the result is an incredibly powerful machine. Using it feels like getting punched in the face by God -- in a good way. It's expensive, though, and it's about as portable as a bath full of cement Read more

Sony Vaio S5VP review

Featuring the Intel 915GM chipset and the latest iteration of Centrino, the S5VP is ideal for those who want a truly portable laptop that can still deliver strong performance. It's not perfect, though -- it runs hot, it's occasionally noisy and it's pricey Read more

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

Toshiba Satellite A660-15T review

The configuration of the Toshiba Satellite A660 that we reviewed, the A660-15T, has its flaws, but it's a great all-rounder nevertheless. Although its 16-inch screen could be more vivid, it offers strong performance, a carefully crafted design, and a great keyboard and trackpad Read more
