Reviews

  • Apple MacBook Pro 15-inch (June 2009)

    Apple's 15-inch MacBook Pro makes only minor tweaks to the previous version, but cutting prices and swapping the ExpressCard slot for an SD card slot are enough to make it a solid improvement over its predecessor.

  • Acer Aspire Timeline 4810T

    Since when did vendor battery claims actually represent the truth? Acer's Timeline notebook just keeps going and going and going, but it's a pity that it's otherwise underpowered and hampered by Windows Vista.

  • Dell Latitude 2100

    The Latitude 2100 is an interesting answer to customising for the needs of schools. As a by-product, Dell has created a robust little netbook that can just as easily be tossed around by any techie who likes to work roughly.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Lenovo ThinkPad W700ds

    The W700ds will make a huge dent in both your wallet and your lap, but for power users, it's tough to beat.

  • MSI PX600 Prestige Collection Notebook

    Don't be fooled by the "Prestige" label on this otherwise unremarkable laptop.

  • 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.
