HP's sexy 12-inch DV2 laptop sports an even sexier price tag at $749, assuming you don't mind going mobile with AMD inside. In this case, it's AMD's Neo MV-40 processor (1.6GHz) that's inside, which the company previously stated would focus on ultrathin notebooks and fill a gap between low-powered netbooks and higher priced notebooks.
Measuring less than an inch thick and checking in at under 4 pounds, other specs stuffed in the 12-inch chassis include 4GB of DDR2 memory, AMD's ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3410 graphics card, a 320GB 5400RPM hard drive, 8X DVD burner with LightScribe, 802.11a/b/g/n, 3 USB 2.0 ports, HDMI, VGA, and Altec Lansing speakers.
The DV2-1030us is available now direct from HP.

My D5 has the same specs with the exception of a 2 GHZ Intel dual core, 15 inch screen, 12-cell battery, and I got it for $699. Only real difference I see is the video, I don;t think it's worth $750. I thought slower and smaller spec hardware meant cheaper.

the machine is much smaller than your system
you pay a price for portability

Same reason mac sells...triple cost for trashy components. Aesthetically pleasing.
I don't like Microsoft, I associate with it.

Makes sense, I'd still prefer performance over portability, but that's just me :D

Wow, this notebook is so unstelar that I just don’t care.
