HP Folio 13-1051nr, the Hunger Games Special Edition

I purchased this machine and have been using it for a few days. The laptop is extremely thin and looks very sharp. I've used it in a few public settings and get a lot of compliments and small talk about it from random people that want to hold and feel it. I believe the design is better than macbook and very solid...

Apple MacBook Pro ME665LL/A 15.4-Inch Laptop with Retina Display (NEWEST VERSION)

I purchased the newest version (Early 2013) which had the upgrade to 16GB Ram and 512GB SSD.The notebook is extremely fast. Computer seems solid, boots in 10-15 seconds from off, sleep to ready in 4-5 seconds. It opens programs in no time flat. It is not light as an air book, but still defiantly lighter than...

Sony VAIO Lifestyle VGN-P688E/G 8-Inch Laptop - Green

Maybe I got a fluke, but Sony's so-called "full laptop" computer in an 8" form factor is like trying to run Vista on your mom's old P3. Seriously, this thing absolutely crawls. All this would be acceptable were it not for the very mediocre battery life (forget 4 hours, I couldn't even manage 2 with moderately...

Apple MacBook Pro 13-inch Laptop (OLD VERSION)

This is an able computer, but the so called value additions that make this model $300 more expensive than the standard Macbook Pro 13 are hardly worth it. If you're thinking about buying this version of the 13 inch Macbook Pro, please consider taking a look at the standard Apple MacBook Pro MC374LL/A 13.3-Inch...

HP Compaq Mobile Workstation 8510w Notebook

I got this laptop last year and was worried that I'd paid too much. My worries were put to rest right away! Not only is the screen amazing but the graphics capability is as well. It really did what it was supposed to do.. Get me away from my desktop. Mine is the Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz model but with the ATI Fire GL...

Toshiba Satellite C655D-S5234 15.6" HD LED Laptop, AMD Dual-Core C-50 processor, 3GB, 320GB, Webcam

I bought this at Office Depot in October 2011 at Office Depot, price was $289 plus tax it does everything you expect, has an external SD card reader, some USBs, and that's about it, but what else do you need? I would certainly recommend any large screen laptop for under $300.I bought this laptop in december...

Dell Studio XPS 1640 15.6-Inch Obsidian Black Laptop - Up to 3 Hours 8 Minutes of Battery Life (Win

Okay, so how many laptops can you find with a 15.6" screen, 1080p resolution, and a decent graphics chipset for under $1000? Not many! This laptop met all three of these needs for me. It came with enough RAM that I don't need to upgrade it until the 8GB of SODIMM modules become ridiculously cheap. The video chipset...

Lenovo Ideapad U-550 15.6-Inch Black Laptop - Up to 6 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Home Premium)

Not quite as solid as a Thinkpad, but not the price of one, either, nor the weight. And much sexier. This is a larger 15.6 inch version of the U350, the earlier version of which critics seemed to love for form factor, but complained about sub-par processing performance. The new lineup seems to fix that problem,...

Dell Inspiron 1526 Laptop Midnight Blue (15.4" Wide Screen with true life, built-in Webcam, AMD Tur

Ok, as an actual user of an Inspiron 1526, I can honestly say that this has been a great buy. This other review that is in this page is not a fair review because it is stating an opinion in general of Dell instead of writing about the actual product.My Inspiron specks are a little different from the one advertised....
