The Asus Transformer Book TX300 is a great example of a hybrid laptop/tablet. Once the screen is attached, it turns into a true laptop with a high-performance processor and an excellent display. And as a tablet it's perfectly honourable. The biggest downs...

The Asus Transformer Book TX300 is a great laptop, with a great trick up its sleeve. While it's unlikely to give the iPad a run for its money as a tablet, it's still a useful device with real-world benefits, and, most importantly, this doesn't hamper wha...

The arrival of Windows 8 brought with it a whole slew of notebooks, including this 13.3-inch ASUS Transformer Book. It's a tablet that you can click into a keyboard, but it's much bigger than the 10-inch Transformers we've seen that run on Android and t...
