Which Laptop

The netbook market features many machines from many manufacturers aimed at many consumers. The HP Mini 5102 netbook is aimed squarely at the business traveller.

The unit is well put together and looks fantastic with a brushed metal case. It also comes in a range of colours. The keyboard is very easy to type on and has large keys, especially the ones that are normally smaller on a netbook.

It features a high end screen for such a small machine with a 10.1″ size and excellent resolution.
It also has a good number of expansion ports including multiple USB, VGA and ethernet.

The spec is very good and it comes with 320GB hard disk and 2GB RAM which is the highest spec netbook available on the market. This is obviously why it is on the costlier side of things.

Because it has such a good spec, running multiple applications is a breeze and the battery life is excellent offering nearly 10 hours of power from one charge.

This is an excellent machine featuring quality design and specification. It is aimed at the business traveller and meets the requirements well. It is very portable and easy to type for extended periods and the extended battery life really helps.

The HP HDX X16 is a serious desktop killer. It contains as much power as you would get in a good desktop but has the portability of a laptop.

The HDX X16 contains a fantastic screen. It comes in at 16″ and is really sharp with full HD resolution coming in at 1920 x 1080. It also has a Blu-Ray drive which means HD films look outstanding. It also has a really good quality built in speaker which even has a subwoofer!

The processor is a well powered 2.26Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo and it also has 4GB RAM. This gives it enough power to work as a gaming laptop and entertainment PC. It is 64 bit and also has a solid Nvidia GeForce graphics card which gives it great support with even the most demanding games.

It has a huge amount of expandable ports including four USB, one FireWire and even HDMI slots. Even with such a power draining spec, the battery runs for well over three hours.

The keyboard and trackpad are excellent and can be typed on for a long duration.

The HP HDX X16 is a great choice if you are looking for a high spec entertainment and gaming laptop.
