HP Pavilion dm4t (2010)
$730.00
Released June, 2010
The Pros:Solid build quality. Powerful components - Core i5 / i7, optional discrete graphics. Highly configurable directly from the manufacturer.
The Cons:Frustrating touchpad suffers from the same usability issues of earlier HP designs. No Blu-ray optical drive option - a disappointment considering the laptops power, HDMI output. Bottom portion of the laptop is still constructed of plastic.
