  • Acer TravelMate 8204WLMi

    The main draw of Acer's latest carbon fibre flagship model is its cutting-edge components and swivel webcam. However, in terms of design, there is much room for improvement.

  • Acer Ferrari 4000

    You'll pay a bit of a premium for the prancing horse logo, but Acer has once again delivered a solid and speedy notebook.

  • Acer Aspire 1700

    Can any computer with an integrated 17in. display really be called a notebook? Perhaps it can. However, any use of the term 'portable' with reference to this 7.1kg monster will certainly raise eyebrows.

  • Acer Travelmate 5720G

    The Travelmate is an excellent notebook for business if you're interested in the 15-inch space, and you're happy with the 3kg weight.

  • Acer Aspire 5920

    Though it's bulky, the Acer Aspire 5920 makes a great choice for buyers who want both a media-friendly laptop and a portable HD DVD player that plugs into their home theatre.
