HP Compaq 2230s Notebook PC
$1,249.00
Released August, 2008
The Pros:Free Windows 7 Upgrade. Intel P8400 processor = fast.
The Cons:4-cell battery = poor battery life. Only comes with 3GB RAM, when many come with 4GB. 32-bit Windows seems a bit silly on a "business computer".

This particular series differs from the rest in a couple of subtle ways, namely the absence of a fourth USB port replaced by the addition of an HDMI port.
