HP ProBook 4420s
$869.00
Released March, 2010
The Pros:Good all around business machine - quality components and build for an affordable price. HDMI output. Beautiful aluminum body - a step up from the previous generation 4410s' plastic enclosure.
The Cons:Crappy touchpad presents more issues than it's worth. No TrackPoint (nub / nipple mouse emulation). Features a 16:9 display - lacks the additional vertical resolution of a 16:10 display, poor for internet browsing and productivity applications, not suitable on a business laptop.
The ProBook 4420s is a 14" notebook laptop from HP. The differences between the different models in the ProBook line lie mostly in screen size and processor power, and the 4420s lies somewhere in the middle of the line.

The 4420s's processor is an Intel Core i5-430M 2.26 GHZ. Instead of being an optional add-on as it is with cheaper models in the ProBook line, the 2 megapixel webcam is a given for the 4420s. With the ProBook line, HP has heavily promoted the fact that these notebooks are lightweight (the 4420s starts at 4.72), and made for on-the-go use, as features like the spill-resistant keyboard and aluminum exterior speak to.
