Asus DRW-1608P review
Reviews Almost everything you need for a new installation is right in the box, including a 40-pin signal cable, a 4-pin analogue audio cable, mounting screws and even a small emergency-eject tool. A quick glance at the back of the drive reveals a standard...

Samsung YP-T10 review
Reviews Reflective as it is, the screen is pin-sharp. A special 24-pin UART USB socket sleeps at the bottom of the player, beside a headphone socket. The YP-P2 is controlled with gesture-based touch and the new YP-T10 uses a purely touch-sensitive control...

Toshiba Portégé S100 review
Reviews There's also an unpowered (four-pin) FireWire port that will connect to almost any MiniDV camcorder and transfer footage. The use of an unpowered four-pin FireWire port (rather than a powered six-pin port) means that any external FireWire devices...

Acer Ferrari 5000 review
Reviews Socket 754 AMD processors run their memory in single-channel mode, but this version of the Turion X2 uses the new 638-pin Socket S1 which allows dual-channel, so in this case fewer pins means better memory access.

Sony Vaio VGN-TX5XN review
Reviews At the back there's a four-pin FireWire socket, network port and power connector. Sony has packed a fair bit inside the TX5XN, which is probably just as well since you're limited to two USB ports and a single four-pin FireWire for expansion.

Reviews Further covers protect the external 15-pin monitor connector, Ethernet and modem ports and a 9-pin serial port. In the middle sit a number of semi-ruggedised laptops, including the wide-screened CF-52, available for around £1,350.

Asus W5000 review
Reviews Disappointingly, this is a four-pin FireWire port, not a six-pin version. Rather than a sedate black, this laptop is all-white. Apple helped to establish this look with the iBook -- if you liked that design, but are committed to Windows, then the...
