(+) Looks good. Battery life around 4 hours. Keeps your legs warm on cold days! (-) Audio crackle. Gets too hot. Screen viewing angle restrictive. Slow to start.

Advantages: Stylish, fast, packed full of features Disadvantages: Short battery life, heats up quickly
...After spending a long time deliberating over which notebook to buy, I happened upon the BenQJoyBook 8000 second hand & can't believe how packed with features it is.
Appearance
With a brushed steel effect cover & the Q Media buttons on the front, the JoyBook 8000 really is a classically stylish machine. The keyboard is very slightly translucent with deep blusih-grey keys, whilst there is a brass coloured strip around the edge of the case to stop it from looking too surgical.
Screen Resolution & Clarity
Despite being a couple of years old already, the Joybook's screen is a sharp & crisp 15.2" TFT active matrix widescreen, allowing for a startling clear picture.
Connectivity
I was astonished by the number of ports on this: 4 USB, 2 firewire (IEEE 1394), ethernet, modem, S-video out, RCA connector, parallel port, VGA & a PC card slot...

BenQ - The new Sony Review ofBenQJoybook 5000 - Pentium M 1.4 GHz - 14.1" TFTby

Advantages: Looks good, Fast, Cheap, Great graphics Disadvantages: Flimsy feel, not enough RAM
..., 40Gb HD, Wireless built-in, Network port, ATI 32Mb graphics card (pretty good for a laptop this small). But what is different about the BenQ? Well for starters the screen is much much brighter than most others out there 200-nits in fact (whatever that means), it comes will all the ports you’ll ever need for multimedia: firewire, 3 USB, mic, headphone, network, s-video out, VGA. It is also a very light laptop considering all the options it comes with, incredibly easy to transport around, and no need to carry any external devices really, unless you want a floppy drive, but what’s the use in that eh? Another thing which is great about the Centrino processor is that you almost forget that it has a fan! For most of the time the fan is actually off, so the computer runs totally silent, and when it comes on under normal use...

...out, and S-video out to connect to your TV.
As this PC is aimed towards office/student use, the inbuilt video card is an onboard Intel Variety, offering substantial performance in windows. It utilises shared memory so gaming is a little out of the question. The sound card is quite reasonable, offering neat stereo sound via front mounted speakers, as well as mic/headphone ports.
The general look and feel of this Laptop is excellent, with stylish silver plastic, and chromed buttons. Blue LED's for status lights certainly add to the effect, and at 2.4Kg it is quite a light PC to carry around. Benq is even kind enough to include a simple Polypropene (Think Wetsuit material) Slim Case for a little extra protection on the road.
The included software is excellent, Windows XP Professional, NTI-CD Maker, Cyberlink DVD Viewer and maker, and Ulead...
