Title: Sony Vaio VGN-TX5XN
Pros: Decent keyboard; internal DVD writer; vivid display; long battery life
Cons: Relatively underpowered; limited expansion ports; screen a little small for everyday use
Verdict: It may not pack the processing power of a super computer, but the TX5XN makes up for it in many other ways. It's small and light enough to carry with you everywhere, with enough battery life to keep you going most of the day
Summary: Sony's VGN-TX5XN is a small but perfectly formed 11.1-inch ultraportable laptop. Its small, lightweight chassis is ideal for carrying with you and with 100GB of storage, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth it's got all you need for working on the run

Title: Sony VAIO VGN-TX5XN/B
Pros: Very small and light, Built in fingerprint recognition, Integrated optical drive
Cons: Only two USB ports, Ridged sides to chassis make it hard to access some slots, Slender lid section offers little screen protection
Verdict: Although it looks stunning and includes an optical drive while remaining both compact and lightweight, this Vista-based ultraportable has a few shortcomings that we find hard to forgive given its hefty price tag...

Title: Sony Vaio VGN-TX5XN/B
Pros: Compact and lightweight, Excellent components for its size, Great keyboard
Cons: Limited graphics, Slightly fragile screen
Verdict: It's may be less glamorous or exclusive than the likes of FSC's LifeBook Q2010, but the TX5 is actually the better machine
Summary: With an 11.1-inch screen, it's one of the smallest machines available
