Acer Aspire Timeline 3810T review

The 13.3-inch Aspire Timeline 3810T boasts a slim, attractive design and a lightweight body, although we'd like to see an optical drive included. Compared to other slim 12- and 13-inch laptops, it also offers decent performance, but it's the extra-long battery life that really makes this machine stand out Read more

Apple MacBook Pro (15-inch 2.33GHz) review

This sleek, aluminium MacBook Pro is the same size and shape as its predecessor but is boosted by Intel's latest-and-greatest processor -- Core 2 Duo. For Apple devotees, it's the little things that count, and this model has a handful of extras that help it stand out amid a fairly generic field of competitors Read more

Apple MacBook Air review

Apple's new MacBook Air may not be a true ultraportable, but it still breaks new ground. At just 19mm at its thickest part, Apple's so-called 'world's thinnest notebook' includes most of the usual MacBook features, plus a multi-touch touchpad for gesture controls Read more

Fujitsu Siemens LifeBook S6420 review

The S6420 is an ultraportable laptop designed for the mobile professional. It's light, relatively small, and best of all, it has a built-in 3G modem so you can go online almost anywhere. This £1,000 laptop has substantial security capabilities and an 'Eco Mode' to boot, so it could be the right one for you Read more

Apple PowerBook G4 (12-inch, SuperDrive) review

The 12-inch PowerBook offers a better combination of power, features and battery life for the price than any other Apple laptop. It's priced above most of the competition at this size, but you get a roomy 80GB hard drive, a DVD burner and an absolutely best-in-class software package Read more

Toshiba Portege S100 review

The S100 might not get design geeks salivating, but its unobtrusiveness is part of its solidity. Gimmick-free, it's a classic thin-and-light laptop that gets the essentials absolutely spot on Read more

Asus W3 review

The Asus W3 sits comfortably between being a home-office laptop and a low-end gaming machine. It'll fly through spreadsheets and simpler games, but Half-Life 2's complex graphics will make it puff Read more

The Sony Vaio NR21M is a distinctively styled and affordable thin-and-light laptop that offers plenty of power for your office and day-to-day activities. While it's too heavy to carry around with you, you'll get decent battery life if you're moving from your desk to the couch Read more

Dell Adamo review

The Adamo, one of the most keenly anticipated laptops of 2009, is a remarkably thin machine, with plenty of high-end visual touches that help it to live up to its luxury billing. It's a decent performer for a low-power laptop, but, at this price, we'd expect battery life to be better Read more
