Alienware M17x (Core 2 Quad QX9300 Processor 2.53GHz, 8GB RAM)

Review 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...

Lenovo IdeaPad S10-2 (Intel Atom N280 Processor 1.66GHz, 1GB RAM)

Review 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...

Lenovo IdeaPad S12 (Intel Atom N270 Processor 1.6GHz, 1GB RAM)

Review When we first heard Lenovo had an IdeaPad S12 on its way, we were expecting the long-anticipated Nvidia Ion-packing version, which will include graphics power decent enough to accomplish HD video and even some demanding gaming. Instead, we got a configuration that includes an Intel Atom N270...

Alienware M15x (Core i7-720QM Processor 1.6GHz, 3GB RAM)

Review Keeping the same revised look and feel as the recent 17-inch M17x version, the Alienware M15x is an imposing black slab of computing power that's thicker and heavier than most 17-inch laptops. We love having high-end options such as Intel's uberpowerful Core i7-920XM CPU, and it's a plus...

Toshiba Portege M900 (Core 2 Duo P8700 Processor 2.53GHz, 4GB RAM)

Review The Portege M900 is the first model in Toshiba's new Signature series. This range (launched concurrently with the Premier series for its Satellite laptops) seeks to bring a touch of class to the design of its business-centric portables. The idea behind this line is that since a significant...

Toshiba Portege R600 (Core 2 Duo ULV SU9400 Processor 1.4GHz, 3GB RAM)

Review The Toshiba Portege R600 is the followup to the Portege R500, famously claimed by Toshiba to be the lightest laptop in the world. The R600 is tremendously light, has a good keyboard, and offers a screen you can use in most lighting conditions. The battery life isn't as impressive as we'd hoped...

Lenovo IdeaPad Y450 (Core 2 Duo T6600 Processor 2.2GHz, 2GB RAM)

Review Formerly known for the iconic, if boxy, ThinkPads (which the company still does well: See our review of the T400s), Lenovo has also begun branching into more stylish consumer products, loosening up its slightly uptight design aesthetics along the way. The recent IdeaPad line reflects the change...

Asus F8Va (Core 2 Duo T9400 Processor 2.53GHz, 2GB RAM)

Review The Asus F8Va is like the prize pig at the fair--it's not going to win any beauty pageants and better appreciated when served hot on a sandwich during Christmas dinner. Confusing metaphors aside, the F8Va is hardly eye-catching, and its glossy piano black lid is such a fingerprint magnet Asus...

Toshiba Satellite A300 (Core 2 Duo T9300 Processor 2.5GHz, 2GB RAM)

Review The Satellite A series has been one of the more popular models from the Toshiba. When the previous Satellite A200 was bundled with an HD-DVD drive, it was one of the cheapest machines with a next-gen optical drive. The A300 was born in different times. With the demise of the HD-DVD format,...
