HP DV1029AP

Friday November 19, 2004

When it comes to notebooks, there are a few different flavours with their own specialties.  The trick to purchasing the right notebook is to know your needs and the intended purposes of the unit so you can properly match the correct machine with your requirements.

Although it relies on integrated graphics, this notebook has plenty of other features to offer multimedia focused users fun on the go at a price that's hard to beat.

Review Score 5 out of 6

In a world filled with gorgeous Sony, Apple and even Dell laptops, a sober, matte black machine aimed at consumers has to be truly special to turn heads. The IdeaPad Y430 is a well-built Centrino 2 machine that lacks nothing in the way of features, speed or value
