Typical price: £450
What is it: Low-cost thin-and-light with 160GB hard drive
What we think: The 9112 is an affordable laptop that's up to the job in all areas except gaming and battery life

Tags: advent, gaming, tag, ports
We like:
Good application performance; well specified; bargain price tag
We don't like:
Short battery life; poor at gaming; cramped keyboard
CNET.co.uk judgement:
Advent has largely been successful in creating a laptop that's both small and affordable. You won't be able to play games on it, but everything else it up to scratch apart from its disappointing battery life
