The good Bright screen Textured exterior gives a sense of quality Eco mode gives an excellent idea of exactly how much power you're using The bad A little hefty for its size Battery runs short due to powerful hardware Design Toshiba's hero product for this quarter's release is the U500, a 13.3-inch laptop with a dark mocha texture on the lid that puts you in mind of old hardcover books. We'd like to say ultraportable, but the weight of 2.15kg makes it a little portly compared to the competition.

The good Fast wireless performance Built-in network storage Photo frame A comprehensive set of networking features Its web interface is responsive and intuitive The bad Single-band router that's more expensive than most, if not all, true dual-band routers Front panel LCD/photo frame is too small Network storage performance is slow Doesn't include a hard drive First announced at CES 2009, D-Link's Xtreme N Storage "all-in-one" Router DIR-685 is the first wireless router that can also work as a network storage device and as a digital photo frame.

The good Small and light Custom touchscreen interface is well done Good battery life The bad Uses less powerful version of the Intel Atom CPU Not much space on the tiny SSD hard drive We first caught sight of the Asus Eee PC T91 at CES 2009 back in January, and were immediately taken with the idea of combining a small, low-cost netbook with a touchscreen interface. Seven months later, the final product is here, and it's largely successful for a first attempt at this kind of hybrid. It's a much more flexible way to interact with a netbook — especially if you're tripped up by the tiny touch pads and keyboards found on most mini laptops

The good Decent 8-megapixel camera Good basic functionality Strong battery life The bad S-Class UI is not easy to use Limited automated set-up Poor online experience If you saw someone walking down the street wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with the word "Smart", what would be your first impression? Would you assume this person was indeed of higher than average intelligence or would you assume exactly the opposite?

The good Subtle improvements to Alienware's dorm-room-chic design Amazingly fast and powerful Highly configurable The bad Good configs can get very expensive No 16:9 display With a brand-new look, and some of the highest-end tech available in a laptop, we're semi-surprised that Alienware has kept the M17x name for its newest 17-inch laptop (even if it loses the X-Files -esque "Area 51" moniker). While the system starts at a reasonable AU$3999, you'll need to configure something closer to our AU$7667 review unit to really get the benefit of Alienware's years of experience making high-end gaming PCs. Design We appreciate the evolved design of the new M17x, which does away with some of the dorm-like qualities of past Alienware systems, making for a (slightly) more sophisticated-looking package.

The BlackBerry trackball brings a slight blush to our cheeks — fiddling with a tiny nub just strikes us as a little bit dirty. (Credit: RIM) We hope we'll feel the same frisson of forbidden user-interface-element excitement when we get our fingers on the new "optical trackpad", which is replacing the trackball on the BlackBerry Curve 8520. We haven't tried it yet, but we're told that the trackpad acts like a tiny version of the mouse pad on a laptop — although RIM assures us it's insanely responsive to make up for its small size

The good Backlit keyboard Multi-touch touchpad Excellent design The bad Multi-touch pad still needs some work Design Coated in piano black, with extremely deep set, blue reflective particles and with trims of silver, the new Asus U series manages to evoke a sensation of stylishness right out of the box. Opening to the inside, you'd swear you were presented with the PC equivalent of the MacBook

The good Great performance Good value proposition Unlocked multiplier The bad Multimedia performance suffers compared to Intel AMD has been targeting mainstream computing for a while now. Its combination of good performance for affordable price has seen it claw back into the graphics market with its most recent generation of cards, and now it looks positioned to do the same with the CPU side of the business. While it doesn't intend to challenge Intel's top performing Core i7 CPUs for now, AMD's latest, the Phenom X4 955 Black Edition (BE), launches a broadside across the bow of Intel's mainstream quad-core processors — in particular the Core 2 Q9550

The good Low cost to print Two-year warranty The bad Poor output quality Slow print times Awkward build quality Outdated design Creative software requires online connection No USB cord included The Brother DCP-165C is the reason why people dread hitting the print button on their computers.

QWERTY keyboards on mobile phones seem to be a feature geared towards serious business people. Recognisable from a dozen BlackBerry phones and counting, the full-sized keyboard often says "This phone is not a toy", but it seems the kids aren't listening
