Asus N73Jn review

The Asus N73Jn's speakers aren't as impressive as we'd hoped, but make no mistake, this 17.3-inch laptop is a fabulous all-round machine. Read more

Toshiba Satellite L650 review

The 15.6-inch Satellite L650-12Q may be cheap, but it offers plenty of reasons to be cheerful. It looks good, it's well built, and it'll handle with aplomb pretty much anything you throw at it. As long as you don't mind its limited connectivity options, this machine will put a smile on your Chevy Chase Read more

Samsung R730 review

The 17.3-inch R730 desktop-replacement laptop is big, red and cheap -- and we like it. You won't get mind-melting performance from it, but it's an attractive and dependable day-to-day machine that will serve well for both business and pleasure purposes Read more

Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 15 review

Lenovo's Edge range of affordable, business-centric laptops boast 'progressive, sophisticated' designs intended to combat the yawns usually associated with the ThinkPad brand. In reality, that means a red lid. Perhaps not enough to stifle the dreariness, but it's a solid performer nonetheless Read more

Sony Vaio S series (VPCS11V9E/B) review

The 13.3-inch Vaio S-series VPCS11V9E/B laptop is a respectable replacement for a desktop PC. Its battery life isn't particularly inspiring, but it compensates for this with its strong performance, comfortable keyboard, and handy integrated 3G modem, for go-anywhere Internet access Read more

MSI CX600 review

The 16-inch CX600 offers superb value for money, with a nippy processor, a gaming-capable graphics card and plenty of memory. It's not particularly attractive and its lack of an HDMI output is a real shame, but, at this price, this machine is very difficult to ignore Read more

Toshiba Satellite P500 review

With its HD DVD format dead and buried, Toshiba has finally released a laptop with an optional Blu-ray drive. The huge, 18.4-inch screen doesn't have a 1080p resolution, but you can hook the Satellite P500 up to an external display via its HDMI port. This behemoth feels quick in everyday use and can handle most 3D games Read more

Toshiba Satellite A500 review

The 16-inch Satellite A500 caters well to those who have a limited budget but still want a machine that will let them watch movies, listen to music and play the odd game. Its screen could do with a higher resolution, but it feels bomb-proof, it's pretty speedy and it looks fairly attractive Read more

MSI GX723 review

The GX723 desktop-replacement laptop won't thrill your socks off, but it's a solid all-rounder nevertheless. Packing loads of connections, a gaming-capable GPU, and an instant overclocking feature that boosts the laptop's speed by a significant amount, it's worth considering Read more

Asus F70 review

An unusual 17.3-inch screen is intended to make the Asus F70 laptop stand out from the crowd, with a 16:9 aspect ratio that's perfect for watching movies without seeing black bars at the top and bottom of the picture Read more
