I finally broke down and started looking at Pentium III laptops..... I have never been a lover of the Intel family of chips. I found a HP Omnibook 6000 at a yard sale this past weekend. It was covered with dust and had a few scratches on it.
...

I am a Technical Analyst for one of the biggest banks in Canada, so a fast and powerful laptop is extremely important for me. I run computationally-intensive programs for design of data-centers, so I need a laptop that is a very reliable. I need to...

Pros: Solid and usable. Price.
Cons: Lacking some "consumer" touchs.

In an effort to avoid paying huge prices for a top of the line notebook, I settled on an Omnibook 6000 for the grand total of $1350. Compared to the "est." price listed here of $3799, it's easy to see what waiting 6 months to a year can do for you in...

Pros: Dual pointing devices, relatively light and thin for an all-in-one, drive bay.
Cons: Flimsy docking door cover

Pros: Quality, Performance, Size, Features
Cons: Noisy and Heat

I have always liked the Commercial Line of products Hewlett Packard has put out and the Omnibook 6000 is no exception.

There are several configurations available, from a 550Mhz Celeron to an 850Mhz Pentium III. I own the Pentium III 700Mhz...

Pros: powerful model with good battery life
Cons: cramped keyboard

This notebook is mostly recommended for business use. It is wrapped in a sleep purple case with a handy grip. It comes with a 14.1 inch screen. It is also a powerful machine complete with a Pentium II 600/500 Speedstep CPU.

This model runs...

Pros: Good price/performance balance
Cons: Noisy fan

I have been a user of HP desktop systems for the past 5 years and find it reliable. For a while, notebooks coming out from HP though good have not been very stylish or have been expensive. This has changed with the OmniBook 6000. It is a good machine and...

Pros: Leading performance for demanding business applications and presentations
Cons: Price

I am an HP phone support tech, and I take customer calls all day on any kind of HP laptop. Whenever someone has a problem or malfunction with their laptop, they call me. Out of all the units I support, I get the least amount of calls on the omnibook...

Pros: A very nice corporate laptop
Cons: Shipping department lacking?

The company I work for sells mostly HP laptops, and these are the nicest ones I've seen so far.

They are fast, have all the options, and are thin, with a full-sized keyboard.

The latest ones were 700MHz, with 128 MB of ram, and a 10...

Pros: nice design, comfortable controls
Cons: no serious

Carefully designed hi-end kick to other hi-end brand! After having problems with my Toshiba 1670cds I went to my dealer and asked for something more powerful and reliable. He suggested me Armada, Lifebook and then Omnibook 6000.
After some tests I...

- Battery lasts at least 3 hours
- Intel PIII-600/500 Speedstep

Pros: Light, thin, powerful -- very sexy, baby!
Cons: A little slow on boot -- Win2K

I purchase this OmniBook 6000 after much thought and deliberation. I was looking at getting the Dell Inspiron (Green) because of the cool look, but decided against it when I heard the lead time and that the colour is only on the inside -- how typically...
