HP ProBook 4525s
$749.99
Released May, 2010
The Pros:Sleek metallic finish on the lid looks impressive, resists smudges. Solidly built, doesn't flex or creak. Long battery life between charges - over 4 hours of normal use.
The Cons:Mouse buttons have been integrated into the touchpad itself, very difficult and annoying to highlight text.

#hp_probook_4525s the mouse pad is horrible... really, dont buy it, actually, the mouse pad is okay its just the two buttons have been integrated and are over sensitve.... one click on the buttons and it's a lucky guess where the cursor might end up.... i bought these for our network (read one review and it praised it up) and everyone who uses it also uses a usb mouse... they all say the same, i tried new mouse drivers, updating the drivers, uninstalling the drivers... nothing works... i cant believe hp would not notice something like this!
