With some decent 15-inch deals in this price range, I wanted to make sure we represented the ultraportable laptop here. To my surprise, I went with this Dell over the newer HP dm1, because for the money, the dual-core Athlon II Neo K325 is a bit faster than the AMD's new Fusion E-350 CPU. But for light gaming, I'd still go with the Fusion and the HP dm1.
