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.
Fujitsu Lifebook L1010

They're certainly a colourful bunch, but underneath the bling, Fujitsu's latest range of notebooks fail to impress.
Sony VAIO VGN-NR17G

Sony's NR17G has a distinctive look, and while it doesn't stand out in the performance stakes, it's still a worthwhile desktop replacement candidate, as long as your needs are modest.
Sony VAIO VGN-TX27GP

Our new favourite ultra-portable, the Sony VAIO VGN-TX27GP offers up a superb design, brilliant battery life and a great blend of multimedia features.
Acer TravelMate 8204WLMi

The main draw of Acer's latest carbon fibre flagship model is its cutting-edge components and swivel webcam. However, in terms of design, there is much room for improvement.
