HP 530

a

HP has created a notebook of two halves. On the one hand, the build quality and usability are top-notch and weighing 2.7kg, it’s portable enough to carry around. However, it’s not the most powerful of machines. Still, being a full-sized notebook you get everything you’d expect, including built-in DVD rewriter, Wi-Fi and Ethernet fitted as standard. You’ll also find two USB ports and VGA-out, for connecting to a projector, peppered around the case. We really like the 530; sure it needs a higher spec, but when you’re using it you never feel as though you’ve made the wrong choice, as it simply feels great.
