  • Lenovo Ideapad S10

    Lenovo's "me, too!" entry in the netbook sweepstakes, the IdeaPad S10, gets the price and features right, but falls behind on battery life.

  • Lenovo M57e

    The Lenovo M57 eco is a small form-factor desktop that is promoted by the company as energy efficient. We found it to be a capable and powerful office performer for its size, but with limited upgrade options.

  • Lenovo ThinkCentre M55p

    Lenovo's first vPro-equipped desktop is smart looking, well designed and packs a lot of grunt. While there is not much room for expansion, the ThinkCentre M55p is already well equipped and the small form factor will be well received in a space conscious office.

  • Lenovo IdeaPad Y510

    While the IdeaPad Y510 is Lenovo's launch into the consumer space, the laptop didn't fall far from tree, its heritage in the ThinkPad line is clear. We found it to be an attractive, powerful performer with average battery life.

  • Lenovo 3000 N200

    The Lenovo 3000 N200 is quite a nifty notebook which verges on desktop replacement. Once all the extra useless software has been stripped off, it's a robust and well performing system that is sure to find a home slung to the shoulder of a few office execs.

    Without consensus on labour issues, the eventual winner of the NBN may end up as little more than a lame duck and a cashed-up symbol of the conflict between the desire for progress and the lack of mechanisms to deliver it.
