HP Mini 1000 review

Hewlett-Packard may be arriving late to the netbook scene with its Mini 1000, but the reasonably priced, lightweight netbook looks to be a serious contender. It has a thinner body than its predecessor, the 2133 Mini-Note, but retains the large, comfortable keyboard. Also, Intel's 1.6GHz Atom CPU offers good computing power Read more

Lenovo IdeaPad S10 review

The IdeaPad S10 Netbook is Lenovo's 'me too' entry into the netbook sweepstakes. The unit available in the UK offers 512MB RAM and an 80GB hard drive for £320, with upgrades yet to come, though we've reviewed a slightly different model. The price is right and we're pleased with the features, but battery life didn't impress Read more

Dell Inspiron 1525 review

Dell's Inspiron 1525 is an excellent choice for basic computing and will set you back less than £400. It may strain under a heavy uni workload of writing essays and encoding MP3s, but its battery life is actually better than more powerful configurations available and it has cool touch-sensitive media controls Read more

Dell Studio 15 review

Sitting beween the budget Inspiron and high-end XPS, Dell's new Studio line is personified by the Dell Studio 15. This desktop replacement is a colourful and customisable option for those looking for a good mix of features and reasonable performance without paying the Earth Read more
