Most beautiful monitors
Monitors have a tendency to be fairly plain objects, but every now and then a vendor goes out of its way to bring design to the fore.
Netbooks: Mini laptops, max portability
Netbooks are excellent secondary laptops, or if you're always on the road and need portability but not necessarily performance. We round-up the best we've seen so far.
Reviews
-
Asus K50AB
The K50AB is a typical mid-range laptop that looks good, but the in-built GPU-switching feature doesn't save on battery at all. We'd suggest looking elsewhere for your mid-range needs.
-
HP 2159m
HP's 21.5-inch monitor is fairly average for its class — however, in the face of its limitations, the price doesn't add up.
-
Asus Lamborghini VX5
Asus' Lamborghini VX5 is a luxury laptop, with a luxury price to match — thankfully justified by the quality of the laptop and package. If you've got a wad of cash burning in your pocket, and don't mind a little luxury, the VX5 might be for you.
-
Asus Designo MS246H
The MS246H works well if you're trying to reach a certain design aesthetic — just be aware that with this aesthetic comes a lack of adjustability options and frustrating menu buttons.
-
HP w185
Its limitations mean that the only scenario we can recommend the w185 in is where you need a dirt cheap monitor for extremely basic use, like to throw in a server room. Otherwise if you're looking for quality, we'd look elsewhere.
-
ViewSonic VX2433wm
ViewSonic VX2433wm is a low-priced monitor with acceptable performance for everyday tasks.
-
Dell ST2310
The ST2310 has a low price and is good for everyday tasks, but it lacks some of the extra features included with similarly priced displays.
-
Asus M60J
Core i7 is here in mobile form. Some vendors will be attempting to rush these laptops out as close to the Windows 7 launch as possible. Keep an eye out — looks like the season to upgrade is well and truly upon us.
