| Bottom line | 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. | Samsung's midprice Series 5 UltraTouch looks and feels like a more expensive machine, but keeps it simple by skipping the complex hybrid mechanics of so many new
Windows 8 systems. | The shiny Samsung Series 7 Ultra has a long battery life and nice design, but its now-older processor gives us pause. |
