I know what everyone is
wondering, how does this
compare to the laptops
on Black Friday? The
problem with this
question is that it's really
almost like comparing
apples to oranges.
The two closest laptops
sold on Black Friday that
are in the same league as
the HP tm2t Tablet are
the HP 15.6" Laptop w/
Core i3 Processor, 4GB
RAM and 500GB HDD for
$499.99 at BestBuy and
the HP 17.3" Laptop w/
Core i5 Processor, 6GB
RAM and 640GB HDD for
$899.99 at Costco .
The most obvious
difference between the
tm2t Tablet and the other
two laptops is that well,
the tm2t is a Tablet with a
touchscreen. From a
technical aspect, all three
of these laptops are going
to perform very well to
almost any task you put
them to. The real decision
comes down to if you
want or are interested in
purchasing a tablet,
because if so, this is an
absolutely great price for
one. (Tablets of the same
caliber easily run $1000+
from manufacturers like
Lenovo and Toshiba)

This deal is not for
everyone, but for
someone looking for a
tablet with a $700 budget,
you should definitely not
overlook this deal. One
final important note, this
tablet does not include an
optical (CD/DVD) drive. If
you need an optical drive,
you can get an external
USB DVD Writer for
around $30-40 at most
computer electronics
stores. |
