Asus have launched their new 2009 range with a bunch of improved netbooks and laptops with better battery specs, better keyboards, touch screens and one model that disperses negative ions.

Stunning design goes hand in hand with fine usability, but the non-replaceable battery and high price count against the Eee PC 1008HA Seashell

Asus add yet another netbook to their range: the swivel hinged T91 Eee PC and HP offer the Mini 5101 netbook for professionals. We investigate the perfect netbook for busy professionals

Not the most attractive, but this Eee PC defies expectations. Another machine that's going onto our netbook shopping shortlist

Some of the wildest, weirdest and most useful gadgets and gizmos for kids - or big kids at heart

If there's one thing that our latest netbook group test has left us hankering for, it's an intrepid manufacturer to come in and nail the netbook formula for $650 or less.

If you can’t stretch to the Samsung N110, the 1005HA makes an excellent lower-cost alternative

With only Dell's disappointing Inspiron Mini 12 so far released, Samsung doesn't have a great deal of competition at this size. The NC20 has six-hour battery life, fine performance and a superb display

If you're a gamer or enthusiast, the trusty conventional PC is still your friend, not the shiny new all-in-one PCs hitting the market

MSI’s Wind Top AE1900 takes on the touchscreen nettop competition, but singularly fails to excite.

Neither cheap nor beautiful, MSI’s Atom powered nettop is sadly second among equals.
