Product brief
Intro: This configuration of the HP Compaq Business 6910p is a 5.1-pound, thin-and-light notebook computer.Compared to other thin-and-light notebooks on the market, it is very inexpensive at around $815.The 14.1 inch widescreen has a native resolution of 1440 x 900, which is better than most notebooks.Runs on the Intel Core 2 Duo chip.This configuration includes a 120GB hard disk drive and 2 GB of memory.Features integrated graphics with 128MB of video memory.
Noteworthy Features: Has a 2.5 GHz CPU speed, which is considerably faster than some similarly priced notebooks.In fact, the typical cost of a product with this fast a CPU speed is $1,700.The built in Bluetooth connectivity will let you pair headphones or sync your mobile contacts.The built-in fingerprint reader will speed up the log in process while adding a strong layer of data protection.This laptop includes a SmartMedia card slot, making it easy to swap digital photos, audio files, and other files with various handheld devices.
Weaker Features: Has only a 120GB hard drive, which is somewhat smaller than some similarly priced notebooks.For example, the Dell Vostro 1310, a 4.6-pound notebook at around $815, has a 320GB hard drive.The fair battery performance of this notebook means it has to be recharged more frequently than other notebooks in its class.
Suitability: A thin-and-light notebook, suited for business computing.Get status reports while on business trips by using this laptop?s built-in Wi-Fi modem to connect to wireless networks in airports and hotels.Archive your digital videos using this notebook's DVD writer.With 128MB of dedicated video RAM, this machine will do OK with some games and multimedia applications, but will fall short of satisfying the serious gaming enthusiast.An anti-theft security tether can be fastened into the built-in lock slot.
Value: In view of its very inexpensive price, this notebook has great features for the money.For example, when it comes to screen size, the average price of thin-and-light products with a similar screen size is quite a bit more -- in fact around $1,173.
Suggestions: (1) Given this device's Wi-Fi capability, you may want to get a wireless access point for your home, so that you can browse the Internet more conveniently from any room.(2) To get the most out of this notebook's Bluetooth capability, you could have a Bluetooth-enabled headset, PDA or other device, and be able to link it wirelessly to your computer within a range of 20-or-so feet inside the same room.
