Acer Aspire 8930G (Core 2 Duo T9400 Processor 2.53GHz, 4GB RAM)

Acer Aspire 8930G (Core 2 Duo T9400 Processor 2.53GHz, 4GB RAM)

Review The original Acer Aspire 8920G was the very first 18-inch laptop we had a chance to review, and the follow-up Acer Aspire 8930G is similar in terms of its essentials, with only a handful of component upgrades. The display has the same native resolution as a 1080p HDTV. Coupled with a unique...
Gateway MC7822G (Core 2 Duo P7350 Processor 2.0GHz, 2GB RAM)

Gateway MC7822G (Core 2 Duo P7350 Processor 2.0GHz, 2GB RAM)

Review One look at the Gateway MC7822G, and you'd think it belonged in the high-end group of retail laptops. A slick maroon lid opens to reveal an HD-friendly, 16-inch display with edge-to-edge glass; beneath it sits a backlit keyboard and sleek, glowing light-touch controls. Yet the Gateway MC7822G's...
Gateway MC7813G (Core 2 Duo P7350 Processor 2.0GHz, 2GB RAM)

Gateway MC7813G (Core 2 Duo P7350 Processor 2.0GHz, 2GB RAM)

Review One look at the Gateway MC7813G, and you'd think it belonged in the high-end group of retail laptops. A slick black lid opens to reveal an HD-friendly, 16-inch display with edge-to-edge glass; beneath it sits a backlit keyboard and sleek, glowing light-touch controls. Yet the Gateway MC7813G's...
Lenovo IdeaPad Y530 (Core 2 Duo P8600 Processor 2.4GHz, 2GB RAM)

Lenovo IdeaPad Y530 (Core 2 Duo P8600 Processor 2.4GHz, 2GB RAM)

Review When you're shopping for a low-priced media laptop, the Lenovo brand is not likely to come immediately to mind. After all, the company is best known for its serious, business-oriented ThinkPad line. But Lenovo has been doing some interesting things with its consumer-oriented IdeaPad line, from...
Dell Studio XPS 16 (Core Duo P8600 Processor 2.4GHz, 4GB RAM)

Dell Studio XPS 16 (Core Duo P8600 Processor 2.4GHz, 4GB RAM)

Review While we're still unsure of what Dell's goal was when it combined the midrange Studio and high-end XPS laptop lines into the new (wait for it...) Studio XPS brand, but at least it means we're finally getting a true 16:9 16-inch laptop from Dell, in the form of the Studio XPS 16. The...

ThinkPad T400s (Core 2 Duo Processor SP9600 2.53GHz, 3GB RAM)

ThinkPad T400s (Core 2 Duo Processor SP9600 2.53GHz, 3GB RAM)

Review Although Lenovo has been reinventing itself of late with its IdeaPad and Netbook lines, it's still a company known for boxy, business-end ThinkPads. There's no shame there: The ThinkPad was revolutionary in its time, and the iconic (if plain) design defined the modern business laptop. It also put...
HP Pavilion dv3 (AMD Turion X2 Ultra ZM-84 processor 2.3GHz, 4GB RAM)

HP Pavilion dv3 (AMD Turion X2 Ultra ZM-84 processor 2.3GHz, 4GB RAM)

Review An inexpensive 13.3-inch laptop will always get our attention and HP's Pavilion dv3 fits the bill starting at less than US$679 (S$1,014.22). It is also highly customizable (our configuration was US$893 (S$1,333.87)). We're fond of saying that 13.3-inch laptops are the smallest we could fathom...

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

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...

Acer Aspire Timeline 3810T (Core 2 Duo SU9400 Processor 1.4GHz, 2GB RAM)

Acer Aspire Timeline 3810T (Core 2 Duo SU9400 Processor 1.4GHz, 2GB RAM)

Review Acer's new Timeline series of laptops, including the 13-inch Aspire 3810T, aims to combine the thin, sexy designs of more expensive laptops with cost-saving, low-power processors. But that's a direction many PC makers are moving in, thanks to budget-friendly CPUs such as the AMD Neo and Intel...
Axioo Zetta MNS 4232 (Core 2 Duo P8600 processor 2.4GHz, 4GB RAM)

Axioo Zetta MNS 4232 (Core 2 Duo P8600 processor 2.4GHz, 4GB RAM)

Review Better known for producing inexpensive laptops, the Singapore-based company's latest midrange laptop takes a stab at the business professional and also includes some light gaming capability. At S$1,499, you get a Core 2 Duo chip and discrete Nvidia graphics card under the hood. However, we feel...
