HP Compaq 6530s Notebook PC
$779.00
Released August, 2008
The Pros:Wide variety of relatively powerful components - good for custom tailoring a system to the needs of employees. Latest onboard graphics and wireless N capabilities. It's weight, dimensions and battery life is OK.
The Cons:1GB of memory is too little. Touchpad is very hard. It'll seem like it's not working and then suddenly work again. See me full data of this laptop.
