Slim and stylish, this isn’t the most powerful quad core we’ve seen, but it’s by far the cheapest.

Slick looks and astonishing battery life make this the pick of the bunch for travelers, especially for the business person on the go.

This notebook is the winner of our Light Laptops roundup. It's solid in every area rather than outstanding in one, and very attractively priced.

A huge screen and an affordable price, but it doesn’t rival a desktop PC where power is concerned

A superb package for the price, with plenty of power. Only the unambitious battery life lets it down.

A very-well designed alternative to big beefy computers which make a lot of noise.

The easyStore is basic, but it’s good value and its iSCSI capabilities give it an edge over the competition

A superb screen that excelled in our tests, but you can get the same performance for less.

The PD113P is a very capable business projector, as well as being small and lightweight.

'Absolute consistency' are the words we'd use to describe the performance of the Aspire T310. A solid all-rounder, this machine is just as at home gaming as it is doing 2D tasks, such as productivity applications, anti-virus scanning or media decoding. And, as shown by its impressive 4,271 PCMark04 score, it's not short on horsepower.

The ACER AL922 is a 19in screen that performed somewhat inconsistently across our range of tests. It scored strongly in colour and yet poor in clarity and real-world tasks.

In what is an interesting first time foray into the crowded PDA market, Acer is hedging its bets by releasing both Palm- and Pocket PC-based PDAs. It's a curious gambit to be sure, and we're content to see which PDA branch blossoms while the other withers.
