By virtue of its position as the world's number one PC maker, Hewlett-Packard is able to design gorgeous-looking laptops, include the latest processing parts, and be super-aggressive in setting low prices. An example of this market dominance is the HP Pavilion dv6500t, a 15.4-inch media laptop that can be customized the way you like it. And like it I do. In the configuration I tested, for $899 (direct) you get an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 2GB of RAM, and a 120GB hard drive. Other features, such as the integrated 1.3-megapixel webcam, gorgeous white imprints, and fingerprint reader, come standard on all HP laptops, whether it's a budget system like the dv6500t or a $2,000 model.
