In the market for a new notebook? Check out our list of 25 things you need to consider before you hit the shops.

Reviews

MSI Wind

This is one of the best mini laptops so far — it's comfortable to use, has a good display and it's affordable.
Acer Aspire One

The Acer Aspire One is better than most netbooks. It's fantastic for anyone who wants a small, cheap machine on which to type and surf the web. However, its battery life lets it down slightly.
Fujitsu LifeBook S6410

The Fujitsu LifeBook S6410 boasts a brilliant screen, good performance, and useful features -- but we've seen better from the company.
Acer Aspire 5920

Though it's bulky, the Acer Aspire 5920 makes a great choice for buyers who want both a media-friendly laptop and a portable HD DVD player that plugs into their home theatre.
Asus F3Jm

It commands something of a premium price, but Asus' F3Jm doesn't disappoint when it comes to performance.
Dell XPS M2010

A striking feat of engineering that's sure to garner attention in a stylish home or on a multimedia-intensive sales call, the Dell XPS M2010 is simply too expensive and impractical to be anything more than a curio for the rest of us.
Acer TravelMate 8200

From a performance perspective, the fast Acer TravelMate 8200 does Intel's new Core Duo processor proud -- but its mediocre battery is hardly the five hours Intel promised.
Asus S-presso

Asus' S-Presso Media Centre is an attractive looking PC if you're only after mid-range performance.
