Review summary	The Asus X53SR is a good performer for the money. It's not a looker, but it makes up for its design in other areas. Its battery isn't up to life on the road, but keep it plugged in and it'll make a good work and entertainment machine Read full review	The Sony Vaio VGN-AR11S is the best multimedia laptop on the market.
