| The Bottom Line | For those looking for something more than a feature-light ultrabook, the gamer-friendly Lenovo IdeaPad Y500 is close to brilliant, and several configurations are currently available at a deep discount -- but I can't believe it doesn't have a touch screen. | While it's not going to dazzle anyone, the Toshiba Satellite U845T is a great example of exactly how much laptop $799 should buy in 2013. | The 15-inch Sony Vaio S does gaming, Blu-ray, and a lot more, all while keeping the design thin and light. | Basic specs | |
