well not really cheap, inexpensive rather, as in that it's not 1000$
Just sold my Dell 1012 for $200 recently.
But seriously, don't buy this shit. Netbooks suck.

As a matter of fact, if you have $400 I'd recommend buying either iPad 2 16GB or Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 16GB. They have the same price but for me Galaxy is more preferable.
Also, if you don't have $400 - with a purchase like that you are eligible for 18 month credit with 0% APR at BestBuy (I know - that's how I bought Galaxy Tab 2 for my wife).
With these tablets you'll have the same functionality as with Netbooks, but much more convenience.

this laptop is the one i bought for on the go... just make sure you do a fresh install of windows as soon as you get it (too much bloat on hp computers)... under 500, and pretty solid. i just dont like that the screen seems a little faded.

And I bet the price reflects that, lol.
not for the one i got... sandy bridge i3 2.3ghz 4 gigs ddr3 500gb standard laptop hdd all for $479
refurbished? Otherwise there is no way Hp would establish price like that for their laptops.
2 years ago I bought my mother-in-law "shitty" Acer with exactly same specs. And I paid $350.
hey dont get me wrong... i dont really like hp that much either... just wanted a chepo pc with ok specs that i could wipe and dual boot... i wanted at least hd 3000 gpu and needed a copy of professional that was already installed ( i am not paying for a new professional key). i manually took all the bloat off of it, and am going to soon check the hash for the product key (why hp diddnt send me one with it written down i dont know) and install my own copy soon
... Then Dell should've been your choice.
I might be biased though, but Dell's laptops are being used enterprise wide and their support is one of the best in the world.
:eek:
dont worry i am biased against dell too!... i know they have gotten a lot better in the recent years, but i still remember growing up, and everyone having dells (and most of them breaking down too soon). still i dont want to support a computer company that once purposely made most of their laptops of a specific model designed to fail soon after purchased.
(Man, I need to work on my capitalization)
And WHY if I may ask?
Elaborate please.
Sounds like HP's strategy to me. (had been working for HP for 1.5 years)
Don't worry, it's not the worst sin. :D
