With plenty of power under the hood, the 8510p is perfect for pretty much any type of office work. It's very comfortable to use, has plenty of ports and long battery life. It's squarely aimed at the business market.

The Acer Aspire Gemstone 5920G (602G25Hn) is a solid performer with plenty of power beneath its hood. It should suit everybody with the exception of hardcore gamers.

This is one of the best business notebooks we've put to the test and it says a lot about Intel's latest Centrino Pro platform. Despite the build quality and lack of Turbo Boost we were very happy with the results.

Centrino Pro has definitely brought some interesting benefits to the game and the Asus F3Sv is a prime example of what can be done with this hot new hardware.

The ATG should satisfy users who are after a well-performing, semi-rugged notebook, but more demanding users who are looking for a unit to use in a very dusty area might want something that has dust-protected ports and slots as well.
