Asus N53SN review
The 15.6-inch Asus N53SN is a very capable laptop, thanks to its powerful chip and graphics card. Its design leaves something to be desired, but this machine's worth a look if you want plenty of grunt at an affordable price. Read more

Acer Ferrari 5000 review
This is a premium laptop with an AMD (also a Ferrari sponsor) processor -- the Ferrari brand pushes the performance angle, which is a useful excuse to push up the price. That demands a high specification, so Acer has loaded it with features, including a high-resolution display, loads of memory and decent graphics Read more

Those with a dodgy heart should seek medical advice before inquiring into the price of the Vaio Z-series VPCZ11Z9E/B. But this 13.1-inch ultra-portable laptop is a tempting beast, offering excellent performance in a beautiful, highly portable chassis Read more

Asus G73Jh review
During testing of the 17.3-inch G73Jh gaming laptop, we had to change our underwear on several occasions, such is the excitement caused by its blistering performance. It's not just the fastest laptop we've seen so far though -- it's also a machine of understated beauty, and excellent value for money Read more

Apple MacBook (white 2009 edition) review
The last MacBook left in Apple's lineup has had a worthwhile update. It offers specs and performance on a par with the higher-end MacBook Pros but for significantly less money. It's a sturdy machine and the keyboard is excellent, but the white plastic design is starting to look dated Read more

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

Apple MacBook Pro (2008 Edition, 15-in, 2.5GHz) review
The Apple MacBook Pro (2008 Edition, 15-in, 2.5GHz) laptop is the first upgrade to the line since the release of the MacBook Air. With its design the same, it features the new Intel Penryn-class processors and borrows the multi-touch gesturing system from the Air Read more

Toshiba Satellite A660-15T review
The configuration of the Toshiba Satellite A660 that we reviewed, the A660-15T, has its flaws, but it's a great all-rounder nevertheless. Although its 16-inch screen could be more vivid, it offers strong performance, a carefully crafted design, and a great keyboard and trackpad Read more
