Acer has more laptops than I care to shake a large stick at.

Two models, however, piqued my interest.

For those that enjoy working out but feel that gym memberships are a touch on the exorbitant side, lugging the Acer Aspire 9815WKMi_TV should do the trick.

The workstation behemoth packs in a 20.1in WSXGA+ screen, Intel Merom T7200 CPU, a couple of 160GB hard drives, 2GB RAM, NVIDIA's GeForce Go 7600 256MiB mobile graphics card, hybrid TV tuner, and connectivity in the form of Bluetooth, ExpressCard, DVI, WiFi, and FireWire.

It weighs a backbreaking 5kg and battery life should be virtually non-existent, but that's not its raison d'etre.

We'd encourage Acer to add in a Blu-ray/HD-DVD drive and a meatier graphics card. Then it'll be a true desktop replacement.

On the other end of the scale is the gorgeous Acer Ferrari 1005WLMi, featuring a carbon lid, AMD's Turion 64 X2 TL 60 processor, Radeon X1150 graphics and a 160GB hard drive.

Weighing just 1.65kg and looking a million dollars, you will need to purchase an external optical drive, connected via FireWire.

The best-looking laptop at the show? Probably. Expensive, oh yes!
