The good Stylish design Excellent keyboard Good overall performance The bad Casing feels flimsy Gets hot quite quickly Average battery life Design Toshiba's Satellite A300 is a visually striking system, especially in the age of netbooks, when vendors are striving for notebooks that are ever smaller and less noticeable. The A300 stands out, at least partially because it's pretty big; 362x267x38.5mm and 2.69kg isn't small in anybody's language, and the widescreen 15.4-inch display is counterpointed by the large quantity of space that Toshiba gives the generous keyboard.

The good Pass through power adapter will power some routers Remote unit comes with four Ethernet ports The bad Power adapter doesn't fit all routers Remote unit is huge, blocking adjacent power sockets Too low speed for anything but internet access The usual unreliability caveats of homeplugs Design and features While Netgear's Space-Saving Powerline Network Kit looks a lot like other homeplug set-ups, there are some small differences. For a start, this one is designed to free up a power socket in the wall by allowing you to pass power through from the base device to your router

(Credit: Apple) Apple today released new Mac Minis, iMacs and Mac Pros, refreshing some of its oldest products. Time capsule and AirPort Extreme were also updated.

Upside Apple's long awaited Mac Mini update is likely to please fans — based off an Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0GHz CPU, it also features an Nvidia GeForce 9400M graphics card, with 128MB memory for the lower model, and 256MB for the higher. This means better 3D and accelerated video codecs, making the new Mac Mini capable of a better gaming experience and 1080p playback. It is well appointed with gigabit Ethernet, Bluetooth, 802.11n wireless, five USB ports, both mini DVI and Mini DisplayPort outputs, and curiously, FireWire 800.

The good Dual-SIM tech is well implemented Good call quality Decent camera MicroSD card slot The bad Unresponsive touch panel No 3G or Wi-Fi No predictive text Poor battery life Design Phones branded with a company name other than the big players tend to fall into a series of predictable pitfalls, especially in regards to build quality. Dualsim's Slider dodges this criticism with a solidly built handset reminiscent of Samsung's mid-range offerings, like the G600 .

When the latest 13- and 15-inch MacBooks were announced in October 2008, a similar revamp of the larger 17-inch version of the MacBook Pro was conspicuously missing from the line-up.

Upside At the netbook sweet spot of a 10.1-inch screen size, the Mini 10 is sure to generate interest. It also means the keyboard is a lot more usable at 92 per cent the size of a regular keyboard, and doesn't suffer from crazy repositioning of keys. Also bundled in is a multi-touch trackpad to assist rotation, scrolling and zoom features, although we haven't used these yet, and so will reserve judgement as to whether it approaches Apple's usability
