Fujitsu LifeBook E780 review

The 15.6-inch Fujitsu LifeBook E780 is a speedy performer, has good security features and impressive build quality, but its high price and poor screen and keyboard let it down somewhat. 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

Lenovo ThinkPad SL500 review

Lenovo's ThinkPad notebooks are prized for their robust build, good security features and solid performance, and the new SL series is a cost-effective mix of performance, wireless and multimedia features. The 15-inch SL500 has a 160GB hard drive, built-in mobile broadband and a high-resolution screen Read more

Apple MacBook Pro (17-inch, 2.33GHz) review

The high-end 17-inch Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro mixes Apple's lauded industrial design and user-friendly operating system with the kind of high-end hardware usually seen only on the PC side, yet it's still very light for a laptop of this size. It's a good choice for anyone needing an easily transportable big-screen laptop Read more

Sony Vaio E series (VPCEA3S1E) review

The Sony Vaio EA3S1E is a great looking laptop that's comfortable to use and has a speedy processor. It's only let down by its weak battery life and sub-par gaming performance. Read more

HP Compaq nx9420 review

The HP Compaq nx9420 is large and heavy, although it can be carried if necessary, and in our review configuration runs a 2.16GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor. Its excellent 17-inch widescreen display and powerful spec makes it a great choice if you're looking for a desktop replacement Read more

Toshiba Satellite Pro R850-143 review

The Toshiba Satellite Pro R850 offers good performance in a well-built chassis. But it's not the most inspiring machine to look at and the keyboard isn't as good as we would have liked. Read more

Acer Aspire 9802WKMi review

It's too large to be considered a traditional laptop, and it lacks the upgradeability of a desktop PC. However, like the well-received M2010, the Aspire 9802WKMi does have a place. It should appeal to users who want a Media Center computer with a large screen, plenty of power and moderate portability Read more

Toshiba Tecra A11 review

The Toshiba Tecra A11 is a decent business laptop, but it lacks the features and design flair to make it really stand out in a crowded market. Read more

Lenovo B550 review

The 15.6-inch Lenovo B550 laptop has an attractively low price, but its specification is basic and its design uninspiring. Read more
