Acer Aspire 5102 Review

Using AMD processor makes the price lower than other laptops. The performance is not for gamers. HDD is only 4200 RPM, but verything else is satisfactory. This is for a budget-buy laptop.

Lenovo ThinkPad T61 Review


IBM Lenovo Laptop

Lenovo (IBM) ThinkPad is the best for its keyboard. The TrackPoint is located in the middle of the keyboard to assist you. With this, you do not have to leave the keyboard and grab a mouse. Working at night is also fine with this keyboard. ThinkLight will illuminate the whole keyboard area. Performance is excellent, thanks to nVidia graphic card. The T61 managed heat much better than the older T60 under normal use. The laptop is great for business use.

Sony VAIO SZ Review


sony laptop review
The design is stylish and attractive. Its weight is only 4lb, thin-and-light, great mobility. The fan runs constantly and pretty quiet under light loads in stamina mode. But under heavy loads in performance mode, the fan gets noisy. Sony VAIO has excellent graphic performance. If you want to carry your laptop and play 3D-games, we recommend this.
