  HP Envy 15 (1015TX)

  14 Dec 2009 5:33 PM

  HP's new Envy 15 packs high-powered components into a svelte 15-inch body. The result is an upscale status symbol that still shows a few first-generation rough edges.

  Specs: 500 GB, 6GB , Intel Core i7 , 1.6 GHz, ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4830 , 15.6 inch

  Toshiba Satellite L500D

  17 Aug 2009 2:52 PM

  We like the Toshiba Satellite L500D, it's amazing value for its price. However, we think it's worth paying the extra AU$200 for the version with the less power hungry GPU.

  Specs: 320 GB, 4GB , AMD Athlon X2 , 2.1 GHz, ATI Radeon 3100 , 15.6 inch

  Asus UL50Vt

  09 Dec 2009 3:59 PM

  It doesn't quite live up to its own battery hype, otherwise Asus' thin and light laptop is pretty good.

  Asus Eee PC 1005HA-H

  12 Aug 2009 4:11 PM

  Asus hits nearly all the marks in the 1005HA-H, the latest version of its iconic Eee PC, highlighted by a six-hour-plus battery life.

  Specs: 160 GB, 1GB , Intel Atom , 10.5 hours, 1.6 GHz, Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 , 10.1 inch

  Toshiba NB200

  18 Jun 2009 11:58 AM

  The Toshiba NB200 is an excellent netbook — we just wish someone would evolve the platform already, but with Microsoft and Intel holding the reigns it doesn't seem set to happen soon.

  Specs: 160 GB, 1GB , Intel Atom , 3.5 hours, 1.66 GHz, Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 , 10.1 inch

  Asus U80V

  24 Jul 2009 12:54 PM

  The U80V is without question our favourite 14-inch laptop, and Asus deserves praise for what it has achieved here. If the company can overcome the final stumbling block of having a reliable multi-touch touchpad on PC, we'll be thoroughly impressed indeed.

  Specs: 500 GB, 2GB , Intel Core 2 Duo , 2.53 GHz, ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570 , 14 inch

  Where to buy? $1,793 to $1,850 at 1 store

  Acer Aspire Timeline 4810T

  15 Jun 2009 4:20 PM

  Since when did vendor battery claims actually represent the truth? Acer's Timeline notebook just keeps going and going and going, but it's a pity that it's otherwise underpowered and hampered by Windows Vista.

  Specs: 4GB , 8 hours, Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD , 14 inch

  Where to buy? $1,278 to $1,565 at 2 stores

  Asus M60J

  25 Sep 2009 2:42 PM

  Core i7 is here in mobile form. Some vendors will be attempting to rush these laptops out as close to the Windows 7 launch as possible. Keep an eye out — looks like the season to upgrade is well and truly upon us.

  Specs: 500 GB, 4GB , Intel Core i7 , 1.73 GHz, GeForce GT240M , 16 inch

  Toshiba Satellite U500

  31 Jul 2009 4:29 PM

  Toshiba's Satellite U500 wants to be portable and powerful, which has a negative impact on both the battery life and the weight. Still, if you need power in a petite package, the U500 might do it for you.

  Specs: 320 GB, 4GB , Intel Core 2 Duo , 2.53 GHz, ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4500 Series , 13.3 inch
