MSI CX640 review

The 15.6-inch MSI CX640 offers decent performance in a sturdy, if dull, chassis. If you're seeking a desktop-replacement laptop, it's worth considering. 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

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

Acer Aspire 5552 review

The 15.6-inch Acer Aspire 5552 is one of the cheapest laptops around, so its relatively decent performance and sturdy construction come as a very pleasant surprise. Read more

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

Fujitsu Siemens LifeBook E8410 review

Fujitsu Siemens LifeBook E8410 is a desktop replacement with a nod to the road -- it offers integrated 3G connectivity and a webcam. Still, you're likely to be desk-bound and with a huge 15.4-inch screen perfect for spreadsheet work, you'll forget all about travelling 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
