Laptops have long since moved away from the days where only businessmen had any use for them. With wireless home networking becoming increasingly common, more people are ditching a desktop in favour of sitting on the sofa e-mailing their friends whilst watching Eastenders. Here’s what we recommend using to do join in.
At 5… Sony Vaio VGN-FE31H
Price £820 | www.sony.co.uk
A reasonable all-rounder with 1GB of memory and a 1.6GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, but you’re paying for Sony’s design ethic.
At 4… HP dv6095ea
Price £799 | www.hp.co.uk
AMD Turion 64 X2 processor and 2GB of memory, but the 128MB Nvidia GeForce 7200 graphics let the side down a bit.
At 3… Evesham Voyager C545+ Visto
Price £899 | www.evesham.co.uk
A neat, compact laptop that boasts a 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and a 256MB ATI X1600 graphics card but only 512MB of RAM.
At 2… Fujitsu Siemens AMILO Xi 1546
Price £1,199 | www.fuji.co.uk
A large widescreen notebook that’s ideal for videos. With 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 256MB ATI X1800 graphics and 2GB of memory.
And at 1… PC Nextday Zoostorm 4-6610
Price £749 | www.pcnextday.co.uk
This laptop has the same 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor as the other two in our top three. The 256MB ATI X1600 graphics aren’t the best here, but will still stand you in good stead, and 1GB of memory completes the package. It runs Windows Vista superbly, with glass fully enabled. The 15.4in widescreen is also ideal for watching videos and presentations. And 120GB of storage means there’s also ample room to store fi les and photos.
The bottom line: Powerful yet modestly priced, the Zoostorm combines ability with tremendous value.
