Reviews

  • Apple MacBook Pro (13-inch, June 2009)

    Previously known as the MacBook, Apple's basic 13-inch aluminium unibody laptop has been promoted to the "Pro" series, all while adding features and cutting the base price.

  • Dell Adamo

    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.

  • Apple MacBook Air (Core 2 Duo 1.86GHz, Nvidia GeForce 9400M)

    If you weren't a fan of the previous MacBook Air, nothing will change your mind here. It does, however, present an excellent user experience. We can only hope the next revision is a little more feature-laden.

  • Apple LED Cinema Display (24-inch)

    A new Cinema Display is certainly welcome, and hints towards more being released at next year's Macworld. We do feel, however, that Apple has shot itself in the foot by only providing a mini-DisplayPort input.

  • 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.

  • Apple MacBook Pro 2.53GHz

    Apple's 15-inch MacBook Pro received a design overhaul and now includes the unibody chassis built from a single piece of aluminium, a multi-touch glass trackpad, a new black screen bezel, and black keys.

  • Asus Eee Box

    We've got mixed feelings about the Eee Box, and nettops in general. You might as well buy a netbook and gain the bonus of portability.

  • 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.
