HP G62t Series
$600.00
Released February, 2010
The Pros:Affordable starting price point. Stylish high end appearance - borrows visually from the Envy 15. 720p capable LED backlit display.
The Cons:No discrete graphics options - stuck with Intel GMA, very poor 3D performance. Large size, 5.5 pounds - poor for mobile computing. 1366 x 768px resolution is lacking on a 15.4" display.
