The holiday season is the time of year when you sit back and reflect on the ups and downs of the previous year and appreciate the friends and loved ones in your life. It's also the time of year when you can think about the new gadget or device that would be perfect for you going into 2014.
If you're considering a new laptop, there are quite a few to consider based on your interest in price, functionality or both. Apple unveiled a new line of MacBook Pro laptops with Retina display this year, starting at $1,299, which could fit your needs.

But if you have budget constraints, perhaps the new HP Chromebook 11, which runs less than $300, is more your speed. And if you're looking for ultimate portability, the Sony Vaio Pro 11 may be your best bet.
