HP Envy 13

HP's upscale Envy 13 looks and feels like an expensive status symbol, with performance and features that impress us — but its high price makes it a tough sell over the similar-looking MacBook Pro.

Apple MacBook (June 2009)

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.

Reviews

  • Toshiba Satellite A300 (2009)

    Toshiba's A300 certainly stands out in a crowd, but its battery life means you won't be out in the crowds for long.

  • Acer Aspire One AOD150

    The new 10-inch Aspire One AOD150 will further cement Acer's lead in the netbook market, largely on account of its price.

  • 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.

  • Sony Vaio VGN-P15G (Intel Atom Z530 processor 1.6GHz, 2GB RAM)

    Sony's upscale Atom-powered Lifestyle PC has the components of a cheaper machine, but the design of a more expensive one. The end result will be a useful travel PC for some and a conversation piece for others.

  • Asus N10 (Intel Atom N270 Processor 1.6GHz, 1GB RAM)

    You'll pay a bit more for the privilege, but the Asus N10 is unique because of its discrete, switchable graphics and extra ports.

  • Toshiba NB100

    In the face of an identical hardware platform, Toshiba's netbook fails to bring a unique point of difference.

  • Asus Eee PC S101

    Asus packs the same basic components found in other Netbooks into a stylish, slim chassis for a modest premium in price, with some unfortunate keyboard-layout compromises.

  • HP Mini 1000

    HP may have arrived late to the consumer netbook game, but by lifting the generous keyboard from last year's business-oriented model, the Mini 1000 easily joins the category's top tier.
