day.
Another great thing about this is the sheer size of the storage space inside. The Eee PC hardly had any on the basic model and so carrying about a spare memory stick was pretty much essential. This HpBusinessCompaq will certainly not require any more space though as its got a impressive 160 gb already built in. The small size of the notebook isn’t sacrificing speeds either as it will still reach 5400 rpm, the average of the normal sized laptops too.
The screen size isn’t that small either, so its not limiting your workability. It offers a 14.1 TFT display and is a good quality screen with a good 1280 x 800 resolution.
The only thing that let down some of HP’s other notebooks was the battery life, however this one doesn’t at all. It offers a fantastic 6.25 hours which is well up there with some ...
Advantages: small, light, inexpensive, fingerprint sensor Disadvantages: 512mb RAM with 128 of that devoted to graphics card, no infrared

I do a fair amount of travel on business and this machine is just about right for long distance travel to far away countries. The last thing you want is to lug around a fat heavy laptop along with your luggage at airports.
It comes with a standard 15 TFT screen capable of supporting a max 1600x1200 resolution ...
Advantages: Slimline, many different options and room for expansion Disadvantages: not too many, mainly the price issue
only about £20 price difference or so. It is possible to have more than one optical drive, as there are two spare drive bays.
Audio
------------------------------------------------------
There is a HP Premier sound card in the system. It is 16 bit and it comes with internal spoeakers and microphone. There is also an external volume button, and mute button, and there are the usual input/output sound ports. The microphone works well by the way, because I like to set up the voice recognition software on all systems, because my colleagues have long essay type documents to write frequently, and to save time, I always recommend using the voice recognition dictation tool. I have configured the laptop to use both the integrated microphone as well as a plugged in external microphone as it can give more clarity, because if you are typing as ...
