| Review summary | The Panasonic ToughBook CF-W7 is a great for anyone who's prone to breaking things. It's by no means unbreakable, but it'll withstand more punishment than most users will be able to inflict upon it 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 |
The Acer Travelmate 8204WLMi uses the latest components to deliver masses of power and excellent battery life -- the Holy Grail of laptop performance. The questionable styling of its chassis and mild colour saturation of its TFT screen may alienate some users, but its long feature list and solid build quality make it a very worthy purchase 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
