Toshiba Satellite A500 review
The 16-inch Satellite A500 caters well to those who have a limited budget but still want a machine that will let them watch movies, listen to music and play the odd game. Its screen could do with a higher resolution, but it feels bomb-proof, it's pretty speedy and it looks fairly attractive Read more

Advent Roma 1000 review
The 15.6-inch Roma 1000 is one of the cheapest Windows 7 laptops that money can currently buy. Considering its low price, it's also tastefully designed, and its keyboard is particularly good. Capable of handling most productivity tasks, it's worth a look for bargain hunters Read more

Advent Milano review
The 10.2-inch Milano doesn't break any new netbook ground, but it's not without its charms either. It's cheap for one thing, although you wouldn't know that by looking at it, and its nearly full-size keyboard is comfortable to type on. Its matte display is also pleasing, appearing crisp and bright in all lighting conditions Read more

Advent Roma 3000 review
The 15.6-inch Roma 3000 sports a particularly good keyboard, and its capable dual-core processor makes it much better suited to multi-tasking than the cheaper Roma 1000. Its battery life is disappointing and we'd prefer it to run the 64-bit version of Windows 7, but it's a solid budget laptop overall Read more

Advent Altro review
The 13.3-inch Altro is an unashamed attempt to emulate the MacBook Air. Considering it's almost half the price, it doesn't do too bad a job. Offering 3GB of RAM, strong wireless capabilities and a good keyboard, it's worth a look for those after a relatively cheap thin-and-light laptop Read more

Advent 4211 review
The Advent 4211 is a less-expensive, re-badged alternative to the MSI Wind. It has the same core specification, so any differences between the two are merely cosmetic. If you want to jump on the netbook bandwagon, this is a fantastic starting point Read more

Advent 4213 review
The 4213 is an admirable second stab at the netbook format by Advent. There's not a great deal of difference between the 4213 and the rest of the netbook pack, but decent storage and battery life, a 10-inch screen and integrated 3G Web access mean this netbook can more than hold its own Read more
