The HP Compaq 6730b is a reasonable but uninteresting business notebook. Unfortunately the competition and even HP are offering much better systems at a comparative or lower price.
Today's notebooks come with a vast range of processors, but will they give you the best performance? Our comprehensive review benchmarks 19 of the latest mobile processors, giving you an insight into the best chips on the market.
The newest addition to the ThinkPad X series incorporates the best of the MacBook Air, with the best of the Portege R500, while also adding its own great features, such as a built-in DVD burner, WWAN connectivity, and GPS.
The 6720s is a budget business notebook that could fit the bill if you don't need serious CPU or graphics power, and are likely to spend most of your time in the office rather than on the road.
HP's attractive Compaq 2710p convertible tablet suffers from one fatal flaw, choosing a ThinkPad-style pointing stick over a touchpad.
HP's no-nonsense ultraportable laptop scores for its solid construction and some biz-friendly features, but the Compaq 2510p costs just as much as the flashy, consumer-oriented competition.
Small businesses on tight budgets take note: The HP Compaq 6910p laptop offers enterprise-level features and decent performance at a price that's lower than the competition.
Toshiba's much-anticipated Portege R500 may be the best ultraportable laptop available right now, but mobile broadband is conspicuously absent.
While not a iPhone killer, the HTC Touch represents good value for money. If you can do without 3G support or a high-res camera, then the Touch will offer most features you'd require from a smartphone.
Equipped with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor and vPro remote management hardware, the HP Compaq dc7700P is certainly an attractive option for business users.
A good value laptop that outperforms many other notebooks at the same price -- the only feature missing is a DVD burner.
The PC maker will focus on building high-speed networking into all its laptops. It's also keen on energy efficiency.
Hewlett-Packard's new TouchSmart PC is more likely to popularise touch-based communications than Apple's iPhone, a senior HP executive claimed.
While there's a few compromises to be made, HP's Presario B1900 proves that you don't have to spend a fortune on an ultraportable.
In addition to a set of features and connections suitable for the small-business user, the Lenovo 3000 N100 delivers strong components and performance at a competitive price.
