Laptop Thoughts: HP Pavilion dm1 Reviewed

"The biggest story in laptops over the past few years has been the incredibly popular Netbook. These 10- and 11-inch (and originally 7- and 9-inch) laptops came out of nowhere to capture the attention of a public tired of paying for too much computing power. After a couple of good years, however, Netbooks are being replaced by new systems that offer a little more performance for a little more money, first in the form of dual-core premium Netbooks and now in systems such as the HP Pavilion dm1 with AMD's new Fusion platform."

I'm a netbook purist when it comes to size, I hate the trend towards larger screens. I'm currently sporting an Asus Eee PC 8.9” Netbook Tablet PC that is almost the same size as the original Eee netbook (tiny). But I can see for most people that these are great. In reality for the average user, with just a little more screen and horsepower over a traditional netbook and you have what can very well be someones only computer.
