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.

Apple iMac 24-inch (2009)

Apple made a number of changes to the 24-inch iMac, but making it available at this price is the most impressive. The rest of the updates are welcome, and Apple's multitasking capability remains unmatched.

Reviews

  • Apple MacBook Pro (2.66GHz, 17-inch)

    A little late to the party, Apple's redesigned 17-inch MacBook Pro joins the 15-inch model with a redesigned aluminium body, new trackpad with expanded functionality, and a dual graphics set-up for either longer battery life or better performance.

  • Dell Studio XPS 16

    The Dell Studio XPS 16 is an attractive laptop that handles HD content particularly well, although it suffers from an unimpressive battery life.

  • Acer Aspire 8930G (Core 2 Duo T9400 processor 2.53GHz, 4GB RAM)

    With a true 1080p display, the 18-inch Acer Aspire 8930G is a capable HD content playback machine.

  • Sony VAIO LT VCG-LT28G

    We're still trying to work out who the target market for the highly expensive LT VAIO is. Design-crazed multimillionaires, perhaps.

  • Apple iMac Core 2 Duo (24-inch, 2.16GHz)

    Other vendors might offer more flexible configurations and better deals on components, and the specter of HD video looms darkly, but the 24-inch iMac's sprawling display and convincingly capable features should set most people's minds at ease.
