As the saying used to go, an IT manager was never going to be fired for buying IBM. Today, in the world of laptops at least, that might equally be said of Dell, Dynabook (formerly Toshiba), HP and Lenovo, but as this Labs demonstrates both Acer and Asus now have compelling business offerings that deserve your attention.
In the case of the ExpertBook B1 series, its big appeal is value for money. At a fraction over £600, Asus is offering a well-balanced specification in a well-built chassis with a well-rounded supporting cast of security, screen, and expansion offerings. At the risk of over-egging our point, it's great for the money.
