Panasonic VIERA TH-P42ST30A

Panasonic's ST30A plasma hits the sweet spot in the company's plasma TV line-up. It's got image quality that's not too far off last year's top VT20, and it's not particularly expensive either. We don't like Panasonic's plasma design updates, though -- they're still chunky and look less attractive than the competition -- and image brightness and colour vibrance drops a little when switching to the most accurate Cinema colour mode. You'll also have to buy 3D glasses.

Ultimately this laptop has achieved everything I would hope for in a laptop for work, while fitting that into a form factor and weight that is remarkable.
