| Review summary | The M70 is an enormous laptop, which you'll never want anywhere near your lap. Despite this, its ingenious detachable 19-inch screen is a joy to use, and while its performance is only average, it belies its girth to deliver stunning battery life. If you're after a laptop that can function as a true replacement for an ordinary desktop PC, there are few that challenge the M70 Read full review |
The Sony Vaio VGN-AR11S is the best multimedia laptop on the market. It contains all you need for enjoying full high-definition video on its own screen or on a larger display. If you're backing Blu-ray over HD DVD this Media Center laptop comes thoroughly recommended Read full review |

Acer Aspire One D250 Android
Pretty average netbook, and the Android OS is more of a hindrance than a help
Samsung R520
Not a bad budget laptop, but the bigger R720 is a much better option if portability isn't a prime concern
