The MacBook Alternative

HP Pavilion DV-4 Entertainment PC – $579.99 – $749.99

Say you’re not a computer nerd.  Nor do you work in the graphic arts or video editing field.  You’re not a gamer, don’t need to run thirty-four programs at the same time, and although you do download music you still enjoy the feel of an honest to God CD in your hands.

Here’s your computer.

Will this HP Pavilion DV-4 perform as well as a $1,000 MacBook?  Can’t imagine that it does.  But it sure works without fail for this website.  A 14.1″ White and Black, 4 GB of RAM, HP Pavilion DV-4 is what this site is published with.

It’s small and light, it looks good, and it’s got way more power than a measly little netbook.  It has guts, it can do things, and it does them with speed and consistency.

All for hundreds less than a MacBook.
