The good Great value HDMI output The bad Some build and design issues Poor battery life if you don't upgrade Design and features Dell's Inspiron 13z has a pleasing, compact form that tapers slightly towards the front, making it easy to lift and carry. While the subtly rounded bottom and sides are made of a fairly robust matte plastic, our review unit came with a glossy black top that was prone to picking up fingerprints. This laptop features a 13-inch, glossy, 1366x768 display and the requisite webcam at the centre top of the screen bezel.

The good Nice design Portable Good print speeds Good for document prints The bad Feeder tends to jam Average colour print quality Installation could be faster and easier Expensive If you need a portable printer, the Officejet H470 isn't a bad choice. If you can endure the price, then you can expect a high quality portable printer.

The good Curved, extendable antenna Screen is excellent in daylight HSDPA and AGPS Good battery life The bad Quite a big phone No mapping software installed The Country Phone will feel at home in those remote areas that struggle with mobile coverage. It makes up for an absence of bells and whistles with great performance of its essential features. Design Wiggle into those chaps and tug on your best 10-gallon hat 'cause it's time to leave the bright lights behind us and check out Telstra's latest Country Phone

The good Lightweight and thin Excellent construction SSD and internal upgrades make the MacBook Air an excellent performer The bad Non-removable battery Limited expandability Mini-DisplayPort Thin grey lines visible on screen in some models Over-sensitive trackpad in Windows If you weren't a fan of the previous MacBook Air, nothing will change your mind here.

The good Decent pricing Small form factor The bad No multifunction capability Not terribly quick print speeds You don't get blazingly fast laser speeds with the CLP-310, but it does live up to the hype of offering affordable colour laser printing in a small form factor. Design Samsung employs a number of people who are exceptionally clever with rulers, pencils, CAD and the tensile strengths of plastics and metals to produce some very nice looking electronic equipment, from televisions to mobile phones and a whole lot more besides

The good Switchable dedicated/integrated graphics chips Decent keyboard Excellent battery life, especially with GeForce graphics turned off HDMI port and ExpressCard slot are useful bonuses The bad Low screen resolution won't appeal to all gamers Underpowered Intel Atom CPU is far from ideal for graphics-heavy applications, and cripples gaming performance High price You'll pay a bit more for the privilege, but the Asus N10 is unique amongst netbooks for its discrete, switchable graphics and extra ports. Almost every netbook we've seen to date has featured the same basic set-up: the Intel Atom N270 CPU, 1GB of RAM, and Windows XP. We're even seeing less difference in screen size, as most vendors have settled on a 9- or 10-inch screen

The good Superb wide-screen display Light and very well built Excellent performance Good battery life Webcam Fingerprint scanner The bad Not enough USB ports Overloaded with preinstalled software Beautifully designed and reassuringly robust, the 1.5kg VAIO Z11 marries a decent-sized 13.1-inch screen with good portability.

The good Easy installation Excellent range of security tools Provides plenty of onscreen tips for configuration options Licence covers three computers The bad Content filter does not protect computer administrator Configuration screens need a 'back' button McAfee Internet Security 2009 does a reasonable job, but it also leaves room for improvement.
