laptop sleeve - perfect for the MacBook

Advantages: Does the job and looks pretty too
Disadvantages: None!

...This is a little pricey for what it is you might think but mine has been really worth the money. It's so handy if you want to keep your laptop in a rucksack or quickly take it somewhere, it really does prevent the scratches and spills without being at all bulky. I have a MacBook Pro 17" and it fits perfectly, be careful if you have a not so slim laptop as it may not fit. I also use it on my lap to prevent the MacBook from burning my legs and am using it this minute, I've tried using cushions in the past which doesn't really work! I really do think it is one of those 'must-have' purchases when you buy a laptop, especially one as pretty as the MacBook! Don't worry about the zip scratching either as it has a protective flap, they thought of everything!...

Review of Crumpler Gimp 17 inch Laptop Sleeve

Brilliant HD Laptop

Advantages: Thought has been put into every aspect of the laptop
Disadvantages: Bit low on usb ports

...Dell in my view are amazing with laptops, desktops, servers, the whole lot. This sleek Inspiron 17 is for me one of the best dell sells for value. If you buy from the dell website you can personalise it like add a bigger hard drive ect. Starting price at the dell website is £349 which includes VAT and shipping. The screen is superb, 17.3 inches and a wide screen like quite a few laptops. It has a 1600x900 resolution which HD giving spectacular quality. The base model comes with vista home basic and a nice 160 GB hard drive. The battery life is quite good around 6 hours I can get out of mine not watching a hd video. It has a built in 1.3MP webcam with microphone along with the base which is good quality. Includes 3 usb ports and also comes with ATI Mobility Radeon graphics. There are many cool and sleek colours you can choose from along...

Review of Dell Inspiron 17

Nice laptop, FAB extended warranty!

Advantages: Good specs, fast, wonderful extended warranties
Disadvantages: Feels a bit flimsy, no indicator lights showing wifi connection, etc.

.... My husband really enjoys this laptop for playing games, but that is not the laptop's main purpose for him and anyone who wants a gaming machine probably needs to do some research. It doesn't have indicator lights showing when the hard drive is working or when wifi is connected or when it's running on battery power (like my old Dell Inspiron does). Some people hate that. I'm not too bothered as I rarely paid attention to those lights, anyway. It also has buttons on the keypad to let you mute or change volume, which is very nice as my husband's last laptop didn't have that and it seemed to take forever for him to get the volume down if an ad popped up or a page had music! My current laptop has the "media" keys on the edge of the case facing me, which I like best, but having them on the keypad is a nice second-best option. The laptop also...

Review of Dell Inspiron 1545 Laptop

In case you need to protect your laptop!

Advantages: Great for protecting your laptop
Disadvantages: None!

...plastic bag and that was it. It did not state if it was water proof, but I certainly would not take my Laptop outside in heavy rain in this case anyway, so I will just say it is not. I did get a few raindrops on it once taking it into my car though, but I am still saying it is not waterproof. Well anyway, this Case Logic - Laptop carrying case is very nicely designed indeed. It comes in black and is made from a very thick nylon material. It is all very well stitched together and is very sturdy. It is quite stylish and looks good in my opinion. It is easily opened up by two strong metal zips, that glide very easily, around this case also and to my liking. The inside of the entire case is lined with a silver nylon material, that is washable with a damp cloth. It is a good size and will hold up to a 17 inch Laptop and has plenty of room for all...

Review of Case Logic Carrying case

Big laptop Small money

Advantages: small money for perfect performance
Disadvantages: none

...I have used Dell Inspiron 1545 for a couple of months. I'm glad I made right decision. My friend who works in computer filed suggested me this one after asking me my demand for a laptop. First , I would like to say , it can totally meet all requirements I expected from a good laptop. I use it to write articles especially for my blog, to send and receive emails, to talk on MSN and Skype with my family and friends abroad. It never let me down. I also used it to watch TV including the programs on BBC Iplayer. Compared to my desk computer, I can feel the speed on my laptop was faster and the stability of the network was better. Second, it has nice overall design. Slim, Simple and sleek. You have three colors to choose . I chose the black one that matches from outside to inside. The keyboard has all the necessary controls that I used...

Laptop Carry Case

Advantages: looks nice, comfortable
Disadvantages: expensive, handle broke

...This bag is designed for laptops and small amounts of work folders Size & Price --------------- The bag dimensions are H32 x W45 x D15cm and it costs £50 from John Lewis Laptop Compatibility -------------------------- This carry case is large enough to hold any size laptop, apart from the large widescreen ones. I carry an IBM Thinkpad in mine with power cable and mouse with no problems. Appearance & Features ---------------------------- The case is made out of black PVC and feels and looks quite nice. It has a stainless steel carrying handle with soft leather material on the underside of the grip. It also comes with a removable shoulder carrying strap which is sturdy. Unfortunately, the main metal handle, though very comfortable to hold, is attached to the bag by 4 screws and these kept coming loose even after...

Review of John Lewis Laptop Carry Case

Dell Studio 17 Laptop.

Advantages: Great machine for small price.
Disadvantages: None

...This is the most affordable Laptop computer ever.. Dell Studio 17 the price is right about $380.00 Where in these days you can get a Note Book Computer with this kind of money? The Studio 17 is as attractive or desirable as an XPS laptop, but it is more appealing than an Inspiron. With that in mind, it achieves its objective: to be cheaper than an XPS without sacrificing too much in the way of looks. Yes indeed there are better replacement machines available, but the Studio 17 hold its own with most. With than in mind we are talking about /or $370.00- $380.00 price range. This machine is powerful, effective, good looking, light weight and easy to handle. The scree is wide and rezolution is fantastic. These days it's just doesn't pay to spend too much money on computers because tomorrow they will become absolite. So you spend...

Review of Dell Studio 17

Dell Inspiron 1545 - good entry level laptop

Advantages: Cheap, good brand, lots of features,
Disadvantages: Probably not powerful enough for games, bottom of the market now

...The Dell Inspiron 1545 is an easy to use entry level laptop. Unlike two years ago when I bought my previous laptop, you can now get a number of Dell computers (of which this is one) direct from high street retailers. This is good if you want it in a rush and want a nearby place to handle any issues, but has the disadvantage that you can't customise your laptop to your own requirements to the same extent that you can if you buy it direct from Dell (which takes several weeks). Because Dell are so good at allowing customisation, you need to be very careful when you buy that you actually get the one you need - they are not all the same, so you can't just go into a shop and say "Give me your Inspiron 1545" - you need to be sure that it e.g. has a suitable processor, enough memory and a big enough hard drive for your needs. At the time...

My new bag

Advantages: Good quality laptop bag
Disadvantages: None yet

...Targus Clamshell XL notebook case With the purchase of my new and improved laptop, I needed a new bag so I could carry it around with me. A quick scour around some of the major retailers convinced me that they were all, bar a few, priced around the same price. I knew that I wanted a bag which was smart enough to carry to work and to meetings related to work, but which was equally able to withstand some knocking about. I also knew that I didn't want to feel that I had to treat the bag like a precious piece of equipment, and hence, this is the one I bought. THE BAG The bag itself is black (good serviceable colour) and has the Targus logo on the front of the pocket; very discreet, and not something which makes it look tacky. The bag itself is nicely padded, and so offers the laptop some protection without being overly...

Review of Targus Trademark 17 Clamshell Notebook Case

The dell inspiron laptop is it a good buy!

Advantages: The look of the dell inspiron laptop seems more classy then other notepads. It is simplistic.
Disadvantages: Maybe Dell Have gone too simplistic with this model as the features are nothing to rave about

...The Dell inspiron laptop has an attractive classy look, it has a simplistic stream-line look. When I take it out its case I feel good about it because its not a big bulky embarassing computer thing. However, if your one for keeping everything clean and tidy and no smudges anywhere, then maybe you might be irritated by this laptop. With its glossy look smudges, smears and fingerprints stand out like a sore thumb. You feel like your constantly wiping it. You also have to watch what you wipe the laptop with as it is quite easy to scratch. A better idea for Dell would be to provide a cloth to clean it with, one they know wont damage your laptop. It would be a real bummer to scratch it while cleaning it. I also decided to get the colour black because there wasnt a lot of colours to choose from which I found quite dissapointing as...
