Reviews

  • Acer Extensa 5635Z

    The Extensa is a business laptop with no particular frills. That's not a bad thing per se, but it's tough to get too excited about it, either.

    Outdoor types and those who want fuzzy warm green feelings will love the powergorilla and solargorilla, as long as they can bear the price.

  • 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.

  • Samsung N120

    Samsung's netbook is an excellent entry into the Australian market, and an incredibly tempting buy for anyone looking in this space.

  • HP Pavilion DV2 1001AU

    For a 12-inch laptop we'd expect more performance and features than we're getting, but there are obviously compromises to be made in making ultrathin affordable.

    The Agora brings the concept of a low-cost netbook firmly back on the agenda, but its woeful wireless performance seriously detracts from its value proposition.

  • Dell Inspiron Mini 1210

    The Mini 1210's upgraded processor and shift to Windows XP does remove some of the original model's biggest issues, but it's still not a netbook that we'd buy.
