An affordable ultraportable, a corporate convertible, a good mainstream machine, and a designer model--all found places on our chart.

Landing in third place on the ultraportable side, the $1550 Lenovo 3000 V200 is cheap for its category and has a generous 160GB hard drive. The $2328 HP Compaq 2710p, a tablet in fifth place, seems expensive but is a good value with the included docking station and an extra battery. The 2710p also has a night light.

On the all-purpose list is the third-place HP Pavilion dv2500t, which carries HP's glossy imprint casing. Unfortunately, the included battery is not very powerful--you'll want to shell out another $49 for a 12-cell. Ranked fifth is Toshiba's Satellite A215-S4757. This well-priced laptop is Toshiba's first portable equipped with an AMD processor.
