11 Jun 2009 2:33 PM
For AU$1599, it's hard to beat this MacBook's nearly Pro-level specs if you're in the market for a budget Apple laptop.
Specs: 160 GB, 2GB , Intel Core 2 Duo , 5 hours, 2.13 GHz, GeForce 9400M , 13.3 inch

Dell Latitude 2100
01 Jun 2009 11:05 AM
The Latitude 2100 is an interesting answer to customising for the needs of schools. As a by-product, Dell has created a robust little netbook that can just as easily be tossed around by any techie who likes to work roughly.
Specs: 80 GB, 1GB , Intel Atom , 1.6 GHz, Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 , 10.1 inch

Panasonic Toughbook CF-W7
29 May 2009 11:22 AM
The Toughbook CF-W7 isn't bad. It's designed for a specialised niche, and if you're constantly exposed to water we'd say it'd be a good choice. We'd expect more for our money though, and would otherwise be more tempted to pick up a Thinkpad for general ruggedness.
Specs: 160 GB, 2GB , Intel Core 2 Duo , 1.2 GHz, 12.1 inch

Samsung N120
28 May 2009 2:35 PM
Samsung's netbook is an excellent entry into the Australian market, and an incredibly tempting buy for anyone looking in this space.
Specs: 160 GB, 1GB , Intel Atom , 1.6 GHz, 10.2 inch

MSI X-Slim X340
18 May 2009 2:36 PM
Ultimately MSI's X-Slim X340 is a disappointment. It is reasonably attractive, but it's not worth the price due to the horrible keyboard and budget touchpad.
Specs: 250 GB, 2GB , Intel Celeron M , 1.2 GHz, Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X4500 , 13.4 inch

HP Pavilion DV2 1001AU
12 May 2009 10:00 AM
For a 12-inch laptop we'd expect more performance and features than we're getting, but there are obviously compromises to be made in making ultrathin affordable.
Specs: 120 GB, 2GB , AMD Neo , 1.6 GHz, ATI Radeon Xpress 1270 , 12.1 inch

Asus Eee PC 1004DN
06 May 2009 3:17 PM
Asus' Eee PC 1004DN seems to be the final word in netbook computing, but then stumbles at the last moment due to the stratospheric price.
Specs: 120 GB, 1GB , Intel Atom , 1.67 GHz, 10.2 inch

Kogan Agora Pro
04 May 2009 9:37 AM
The Agora brings the concept of a low-cost netbook firmly back on the agenda, but its woeful wireless performance seriously detracts from its value proposition.
Specs: 160 GB, 2GB , Intel Atom , 1.6 GHz, 10 inch

Dell Adamo
21 Apr 2009 4:30 PM
Dell's upscale Adamo is a 13-inch laptop for those who value design and finish as much as performance, but its luxury price will limit the potential audience.
Specs: 128 GB, 2GB , Intel Core 2 Duo , 5 hours, 1.2 GHz, Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD , 13.4 inch
