rockdirect Xtreme CTX T7400 review
The rockdirect Xtreme CTX T7400 is among the first laptops available in the UK to use an Intel next-generation Core 2 Duo processor. Intel says the Core 2 Duo is up to 20 per cent faster than its predecessor and this PC's intimidating performance confirmed that. Shame about the chassis, though Read more

The 17.3-inch Acer Aspire 7745G has many plus points, including its attractive appearance and decent performance. Its let down, though, by the poor vertical viewing angle of its 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

Apple MacBook Pro (17-inch) review
The the 17-inch MacBook Pro delivers many of the same beloved features as its little sibling, the 15.4-inch MacBook Pro but, better still, it powered through the performance tests with very few stumbling blocks. It's not cheap but for graphics professionals and Mac lovers it's a dream Read more

Advent 6441 review
The 6441 is commendably cheap for a laptop with a Blu-ray drive and a 17-inch screen. But, with a poor-quality keyboard and trackpad, and a relatively slow processor and graphics, it's hard to avoid the feeling that Advent compromised on quality in pursuit of a low price tag Read more

HP Compaq Presario CQ70-116 review
The CQ70-116 is a sturdy, minimalist, desktop-replacement laptop with a 17-inch screen and a remarkably low price tag. A slow processor and poor graphics mean this isn't a laptop for gamers, but those seeking a general-purpose machine will find that the CQ70-116 delivers the goods Read more

Toshiba Satellite P200-17C review
The Toshiba Satellite P200-17C is the perfect laptop if you're looking for some gaming fun. Its 2D and 3D performance is impressive, while six USB ports are scattered around the machine. The speakers are excellent and there's room for a numeric keypad to accompany the Qwerty keyboard Read more

Sony Vaio VGN-FW41E/H review
You'll have to fork out a sizeable wad of cash for it, but, if you do, the 16.4-inch Vaio VGN-FW41E/H desktop-replacement laptop will reward you with a swish design, good all-round performance and a large, high-resolution screen. It's an impressive lump of laptop Read more
