Windows 7 means new laptops

While most vendors are simply installing Windows 7 across their existing range, a number of new laptops will be available for purchase now that Microsoft's new operating system has hit the market.

Lenovo ThinkPad X200

It lacks some basic features you may require — touch pad, optical drive — but the 12.1-inch ThinkPad X200 offers strong performance and the longest battery life we've seen.

Reviews

  • Apple MacBook Pro 15-inch (June 2009)

    Apple's 15-inch MacBook Pro makes only minor tweaks to the previous version, but cutting prices and swapping the ExpressCard slot for an SD card slot are enough to make it a solid improvement over its predecessor.

  • HP Mini 2140 (Intel Atom N270 processor 1.6GHz, 1GB RAM)

    HP offers a premium version of its Mini 1000 while keeping the price down, making the Mini 2140 the netbook to beat.

  • Dell Latitude E6500

    The Dell Latitude E is a glimpse into the future of laptops. With high expandability, configurable and a strong design, it should suit most corporate environments.

  • Toshiba Portege R400 (with HSDPA)

    The last year has not been kind to Toshiba's Portege R400. While it retains the advantage of being a tablet, in all other respects the rest of the ultraportable crowd have left it well behind.

  • HP 2133 Mini-Note

    Despite an underpowered CPU, the HP 2133 Mini-Note PC offers the best balance of small size, comfort, and functionality we've seen in a mini-notebook, making it fast a favourite for on-the-go use.

  • Toshiba Satellite A200 (Pentium 1.86Ghz, 1GB RAM)

    The Satellite A200 is a decent machine for basic productivity needs, but otherwise does little to mark it out from the budget laptop pack.

  • Toshiba Satellite M200 (Core 2 Duo 1.5GHz, 1GB RAM)

    Toshiba's M200 feels great, but doesn't stand out against an oncoming slew of budget competitors.

  • Apple MacBook Air (1.6GHz)

    Apple has released what has to be the thinnest notebook ever -- the MacBook Air.
