For over seven years, Gateway did not have a regional presence since leaving the Asian market. In 2007, Taiwanese maker Acer acquired this brand and it was only last December that Gateway-branded machines returned, starting with Singapore. The company's initial offerings might be limited to a...

The portable gaming market is very niche. Though virtual play has been steadily increasing in popularity, the savvy player knows that it's more economical to purchase a gaming desktop rather than a laptop. This is because the former can easily be upgraded to future technology while the latter is...
Review Almost every Netbook we've seen to date has featured the same basic setup: The Intel Atom N270 CPU, 1GB of RAM, and Windows XP. We're even seeing less difference in screen size, as most vendors have settled on a 9- or a 10-inch screen. Really, the only differentiation between Netbook...

The Asus UX series is the Taiwanese maker's first foray into the Intel CULV segment, which seeks to offer sleek thin-and-lights at an affordable price point. Another vendor from the same island, Acer, was one of the first to offer consumer ultra-low-voltage machines via the Timeline series. The...

Whether CULV laptops will ever fully find a spot between the Netbook world and the full-featured notebook world, they are most definitely a category that's growing everyday. Dropping an optical drive and adding a low-voltage processor alongside a long-lasting battery are the trends of 2009,...

Lenovo's IdeaPad S10 Netbook was one of the most popular budget minilaptops for good reasons: Its business-friendly tools, ExpressCard slot, and reasonable price all made it a great option for consumers or corporate users.
Now, another revision is available that effectively replaces the...

The HP Pavilion dm series is the first ultrathin range in the company's consumer entertainment lineup and consists of the 11.6-inch dm1 and 13.3-inch dm3. The trademarks of an ultrathin laptop are the omission of an optical drive as well as the use of AMD Neo or Intel CULV chips. The Pavilion...

This year has undoubtedly been defined if not by Netbooks, then by the growth of affordable thin laptops that shed the size--and even optical drive--in an effort to provide a more portable, larger-screen computer. Whereas this used to be the domain of highly expensive "executive" machines, such...

If you're on the fence deciding between buying a desktop gaming PC and monitor or going with a less powerful but more mobile laptop, let us introduce you to the Asus W90Vp. It isn't much to look at as gaming notebooks go. But it has everything we expect and more in the features department,...

On the surface, the Booktop seems to be just another Atom-based 10-inch minilaptop from a minor player. But while Gigabyte is better known for manufacturing mainboards than laptops, we were impressed that the M1022M managed to stand out from the crowd during our testing. In fact, it could be the...

Everything about the Sony Vaio VGN-NW25GF/B is pleasing. For starters, it looks good and unlike its glossy plastic shelfmates, the textured chassis doesn't feel cheap or end up covered in fingerprints from simply picking it up. It's well-configured for general home and office duties and the port...

With a brand-new look and some of the highest-end tech available in a laptop, we're semi surprised that Alienware has kept the M17x name for its newest 17-inch laptop (even if it loses the X-Files-esque "Area-51" moniker). While the system starts at a reasonable S$3,499, you'll need to configure...
