The news shows that tablet computers like the iPad are slowly but surely removing the need for netbooks. However there is no tablet out there that can beat the performance of a powerful laptop. Recently we have been looking into laptops as sometimes you need something as powerful as a desktop but as portable as a tablet. At the moment you can’t quite get exactly both however we have 5 laptops that are the best of both worlds. Not only that but we have looked for some of the most stylish laptops too!

Dell XPS

Firstly the Dell XPS is one of Dells latest laptops and is packed with power all in a stylish aluminium body.

Top Specs include:
Intel Core i5-560M @2.66GHz
8GB Ram
1GB Nvidia GeForce GT 420M
