Clickfree Wireless Backup (500GB) 24 November, 2010 11:00:00
The Clickfree Wireless Backup is an external 500GB USB 2.0 hard drive with built-in 802.11n networking that makes ongoing data backup -- particularly for laptops — a cinch. It's small and elegantly designed, and it can be used to easily back up multiple computers (including Macs). The best part is that it doesn't have to be permanently connected to your computers in order to keep them backed up. - +
Sony VAIO E Series (VPCEB36FG) notebook 22 November, 2010 11:00:00
The aqua colour of the Sony VAIO E Series (VPCEB36FG) may not be appealing to many people, but don't fret: it's also available in white, red, black and green. It's a 15.5in notebook that has many things going for it; it feels very well built, it has a Full HD screen and its keyboard is excellent. However, it doesn't run a top-end Core i7 or mid-range Core i5 CPU. Instead it's available with an Intel Core i3 CPU, which seems a little mismatched against the Full HD screen. - +

The ASUS Eee Top ET2002 is an all-in-one PC with a 20in touch-screen display and the latest Intel Atom CPU and NVIDIA graphics for mainstream users. It's designed for everyday tasks such as Web browsing, office work and playing videos and music; it would definitely suit students looking for something neat and simple for their bedroom, as well as families looking for a space-saving and basic PC for the lounge room. - +

Dell Vostro V13 slimline laptop 18 January, 2010 12:30:00
Dell's Vostro V13 is a slimline, 13.3in business notebook with plenty of style and a very sturdy body. It feels great to use and it has a decent amount of power under the hood. Best of all, it only weighs around 1.5kg. It's an almost perfect combination of size, speed and mobility. - +

Lenovo ThinkPad T400s Multitouch notebook 18 December, 2009 15:20:00
With the release of Windows 7 and its inbuilt support for multitouch input and gestures, touch-screen computing is gathering steam. Not only can you get all-in-one PCs with touch screens and tablet-convertible notebooks, you can also get regular notebooks equipped with touch-sensitive displays. Lenovo's ThinkPad T400s Multitouch is one such laptop: it features a 14.1in touch screen that can recognise up to four finger inputs. - +
Fujitsu LifeBook P3110 notebook 16 December, 2009 10:00:00
The Fujitsu LifeBook P3110 is an 11.6in notebook that's bigger and more powerful than a typical netbook. At only 1.6kg, it's still just as easy to carry around as a 10in netbook, but the increased size makes it more comfortable to use. We think the best thing about the P3110 is its battery life; if you configure your power plan correctly, this notebook could last almost an entire work day without being plugged into a power outlet. - +
ASUS UL80Vt notebook 14 December, 2009 11:30:00
ASUS' UL80Vt is a 14in notebook that's built for people who want plenty of features and good speed, yet want a laptop that's reasonably light and capable of lasting a long time away from a power outlet. It weighs approximately 2kg and ships with an 8-cell battery, and it comes with a stack of ASUS utilities that allow you to tweak its performance, power profiles and start-up speed. - +
Sony VAIO CW Series (VPCCW15FGW) notebook 09 December, 2009 17:10:00
If there is one overwhelming opinion about the Sony VAIO CW Series (VPCCW15FGW) notebook at PC World, it's that it should not be available in pink. Everyone who saw it in our Test Centre despised the colour, wishing instead for black or white (or even the champagne colour that adorns part of the base). The good news is that the CW Series is available in black or white and it's a fine notebook with plenty to offer. - +
ASUS Eee PC 1008HA (Seashell) netbook 08 December, 2009 16:50:00
When we picked up the ASUS Eee PC 1008HA (or the Seashell, as it is known), we could tell that it was one of the nicest netbooks on the market -- if not the nicest.
