HP Compaq nc2400 Reviewed (Verdict: All-business)
Laptop reviewed the nc2400, HP’s business compaq that looks like the bastard spawn of a ThinkPad and a Smurf. This 12-inch notebook weighs 3.6 pounds and manages to stick an optical drive into its tiny frame. The model they tested had a 1.2-GHz Core Solo processor with 512MB of RAM standard. They saw over 5 hours hours of battery life on one charge—not too shabby.
Priced at $1,599, this bugger looks like a good choice for business folks who don’t want to go the Lenovo route.

Today at E3, Toshiba unveils the Qosmio G35-AV650, the first notebook with an HD DVD player inside. It’s also loaded with a 17-inch 1920×1200 display, a 2GHz Intel Core Duo processor, two 100GB hard drives in a RAID configuration and a gig of DDR2 memory. It’s not skimping in the graphics department, either, with an NVidia GeForce Go 7600 256MB graphics card. Weighing a hefty 10.1 pounds, it will be running Microsoft Windows Media Center Edition 2005, and will cost a cool $3000. Look for it on Toshiba’s website later this week and in stores next week.
If you are dumb enough to buy a Powerbook in an alley by a liquor store in New York City then maybe you are meant to be an Apple owner. Zing! Just kidding Jobs, you know me love you long time.
