HP 3105M
HP 3105m is the company’s first business mini laptop sporting the new AMD’s dual core E350 processor and ATi Radeon HD 6310 graphics processing unit. It includes an HD 11.6 inch display that produces bright, vivid colors. It comes with up to 8GB of DDR3 RAM, 250GB hard disk drive (or 320GB HDD). You can describe 3105m as mini executive, something that boasts much better built quality than the cheap 10.1 inch netbooks around.
From outside, this notebook looks same as the HP DM1Z. HP is giving some really intriguing configuration options such as the ability to remove the Energy Star sticker for mere 1 dollar. Coming down to the connectivity options, it comes standard with the 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0. However, you can swap the wireless card with the Broadcom 802.11 a/b/g/n and a cellular modem that is based on Gobi 2000 chipset.
Other specs include 3x USB 2.0 ports, VGA, HDMI port and headphone microphone combo. To make sure it gives you decent runtimes, HP has included a nice 6-cell battery (55Whr) which should be able to give you around 5-6 hours of runtime on a single charge. HP will be offering it with either FreeDOS or Windows 7 Professional operating system. For some reason, HP is not offering SuSE Linux version with it.
