A very good Tablet PC that won't blow your budget, but will provide decent performance with great functionality and stylish looks.

For its sub-$700 asking price, you can't go wrong with the MSI Wind. It was responsive in our tests, and has plenty of storage and a large screen. Most importantly, its battery lasts a long time. This ultraportable is also quite comfortable to use.

It's not the kind of notebook you want to carry around with you everywhere, but it's a powerful desktop replacement that will provide plenty of entertainment.

If you need a notebook that will last for four hours while on the road, and double as a media centre once you get back to base, then look no further.

With its light weight, long battery life, and easy-to-read screen, the Compaq Presario V2000 might be the perfect wide-screen laptop, especially for road warriors.

Until now MSI's notebook range had not really impressed us, but the GX600 is a fairly good performer with the added potential of the turbo mode. The inclusion of e-SATA and HDMI ports show that MSI has its finger on the pulse, which will help keep this notebook functional into the future.

It's small, affordable and easy to use. Business users will appreciate the fast networking options and the ExpressCard slot. Travellers and students will love its large hard drive capacity and the fact that it's compact but still easy to use.

A great solution for those that want a high-quality display tablet without a massive price tag.

This is by far one of the best performing notebooks we've seen. Not only has it equalled the top score of 107 in PC WorldBench 5, but it has done so with very good battery life. This will suit anyone's needs except for people hoping to play the latest games, and the buzzing speaker was an unfortunate blemish on an otherwise excellent unit.

An awesome all purpose notebook which has great gaming performance, and Blu-ray support complete with HDMI. For the early adopter, it doesn't get much better than this.

The Dell XPS M1330 is the most powerful notebook we've tested to date. It's slim, it's stylish and for your money, it's even good value. There's little to complain about this notebook, except if you don't have one.

For its size and price this Acer is a great purchase. It has a strong selection of connectivity options crammed into a small package and good battery life as well.
