MSI GX700-204UK review

Reviews Laptops aren't generally known for their gaming performance, but if you haven't got room for a full-size PC and still want to do the odd bit of simulated action, then the MSI GX700-204UK may well be able to satisfy your virtual desire for around...

MSI Turbobook GX600 review

Reviews The MSI Turbobook GX600 has a built-in turbo button that the manufacturer says can instantly increase its performance by as much as 20 per cent, and cut boot times by approximately 50 per cent. Our review sample shipped with a panel running at a...

MSI Wind review

Reviews The curved corners and pearlescent white finish give it a very contemporary look and although the MSI logo on the lid might spoil it for Carrie and company, the rest of us will adore it. MSI has said it will release an 8.9-inch version of the Wind...

Mesh MSI M670-S2 review

Reviews DesignBudget laptops usually have as much style as the attendees of a comic-book convention, but the MSI is actually a rather snappy dresser. The Mesh MSI M670-S2 is a good example. FeaturesDespite its low price tag, the MSI boasts a good range of...

Mesh MSI PR600 review

Reviews Instead, it takes machines like this one -- the MSI PR600 -- and resells it under its own brand name. MSI has decided to adorn the machine with a keyboard that includes a full numeric pad -- just like a standard desktop keyboard.

Penryn desktop replacements

Reviews Desktop replacement laptops are ideal if you don't have space for a full-size desktop PC, but still need to do your number crunching. With powerful components, a desktop replacement can rival a full-sizer's performance.

Netbooks: Best Eee PC alternatives

Reviews It's fairly difficult to go wrong when buying a miniature laptop. Most so-called 'netbooks' do exactly what they promise -- they're small, they let you browse the Internet and are great for enjoying media on the move.

Best cheap laptops for £499 and under

Reviews Laptops are now so popular they outsell desktop PCs in Western Europe. It's not difficult to see why -- a few years ago, if you were looking for a new machine, you'd expect to spend well over a grand, but these days you can pick up a decent model...

Best laptops for £799 or less

Reviews It's not difficult to see why laptops have been gradually gaining in popularity. Prices have fallen and modern laptops aren't far off desktop PCs in terms of raw performance. They're also a much more convenient option, especially if you're tight on...

Eee PC 1000 review

Reviews Its 225 by 170 by 20mm chassis is a few millimetres wider and deeper than an MSI Wind, but we don't have too much of an issue with this; it's still very portable. Even without the battery, it tips the scales at nearly 1.1kg, which is what the MSI...

Toshiba Satellite Pro A100-415 review

Reviews Unlike the Acer Aspire 3693WLWi and the Mesh MSI M670-S1 budget laptops, it doesn't have a glossy finish, so colours in movies and pictures don't look quite as vivid as they do on those models, although it is easier to read text on the screen in...

Elonex webbook preview

Reviews This is disappointing, since most netbooks weigh in at approximately 1Kg -- even the 10.2-inch MSI Wind. It's nowhere near as good as an MSI Wind or an Eee PC 900 due to its weight and poor performance, but if you're looking for a laptop and...

Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 1718 review

Reviews It scored in PCMark 2005, which is roughly the same as the Mesh MSI M670-S2. It's designed for skint students or anyone who wants a second PC. Don't let the sub-£500 price tag fool you though, the Li 1718 has an impressive specification and comes...
