HP DM3 is worth considering

I purchased the DM3 because on paper it ticked all of the boxes. It has proved to be an astute purchase. It is slim, attractive, the keyboard is peerless and it is fast for web browsing HD video playback.

Before purchasing I was worried about the heat generated by the Athlon Neo x2 processor and the trackpad.

The bottom left of the base does heat up but it isn't uncomfortable. The trackpad is the main bugbear. You really have to play around with the settings to find the correct sensitivity. It supports gestures but the trackpad is too small to properly utilise them.

However, these small grievances in no way detract from a good deal. You smile from time to time when you think about what you get for such a small price.

The DM3 is a rare example of a fair deal for the consumer.

But this Hp Pavilion dm3 has tremendous battery life and the bad is no optical drive,some config can be expensive and touchpad should be improved. For details visit http://www.iyogi.net/hp/
