It's not an entirely practical solution for all types, as for this price you can get a very powerful desktop PC. However, if you're after a system with power and require portability, if not light and easy mobility, then this system has some merit.

At 4.9kg, this large desktop replacement may not be very portable, but it packs some power.

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.

A powerful system for powerful tasks, the AR38G can handle most things you throw at it and has a High Definition Blu-Ray drive, ensuring it will be useful for years to come.

Excellent performance and powerful multimedia capabilities thanks to a Blu-ray drive and HDMI make the FZ18G an excellent desktop replacement.

It's a shame to have to minus points from this notebook because of the HD-DVD player, but its limited utility is unavoidable. Otherwise it's a powerful and functional desktop replacement with plenty of media features.

We're disappointed that no HD-DVD-RW was included, but if there's no media what's the point? The new look is nice and the other enhancements make this notebook a better choice than its predecessors. We'd certainly recommend this model over the previous G30's, even though its performance hasn't really improved.

First in Australia with HD-DVD, the Qosmio G30 is a no compromise notebook from Toshiba.

The Toshiba Satellite A300 provides excellent processing power and a sleek design for a price that won't break the budget.

Phenomenal performance for its price, yet it still has all the features to justify it as a powerful, secure and durable business machine.

A powerful notebook that will run everything from Office to the latest 3-D games. Aside from flexing of the screen bezel, this is a solid machine that has a lot to offer.

The unique Qosmio G20 goes a long way to justifying its price with home entertainment features to die for.
