What is it:
17.3-inch desktop-replacement laptop

Typical price:
£709.95

We like:
Very fast processor; large, high-resolution screen

We don't like:
Keyboard could be better

The judgement:
The Toshiba Satellite L550-113 is far from the best-looking desktop-replacement laptop around, but it packs a surprising amount of brawn. Its storming performance is let down slightly by its middling graphics chip, but that doesn't really detract from a very capable laptop that represents great value for money
