HP's MediaSmart EX490 isn't cheap, but it's packed full of useful features.
An interesting design and reasonable performance, but considering the low specification it's simply too expensive.
Excellent text and colour graphics prints at a rock-bottom price, but it's worth spending more for lower running costs.
HP's Pavilion dv6 isn't a bad laptop, but the tough competition means that you can get a better laptop for less money.
Cheap to buy and run, with outstanding document quality even on low-grade paper, this is a great printer for a small or home office.
The small, quiet HP Pavilion is fine for undemanding users, but it can't handle games, and you pay a premium for the compact design.
HP's EliteBook has good battery life, a comfortable keyboard and a long warranty, but it's expensive and has a tiny hard disk.
A classy-looking laptop, with excellent build quality, a comfortable keyboard and respectable all-round performance.
