HP To Capitalize On Netbook Business Market with Mini 5101

The business netbook market is growing and more companies are now coming up with netbooks that are tailored towards the needs of business individuals. Take Mini 1501, a new business netbook by HP. Not only Mini 5101 comes with the faster ATOM N280 processor, but it also entertains a split-proof keyboard, and networking capabilities needed by business individuals to stay connected while on the go.

Unlike its predecessor, Mini 5101 netbook comes with a much sleeker design. It does help that it only weighs 2.6 lbs. And who can forget about the high quality cam included with HP 5101. If you want to get too fancy, you can add a solid state drive to your netbook, but that will cost you some. What I love about this netbooks is the inclusion of HP 3D DriveGuard technology, which offers a three-axis digital accelerometer chip that sends a signal to shut down the hard drive upon sudden movement or shock.

While business netbooks can be appealing to everyone, they are mostly designed to address the needs of business professionals on the go. Business folks need a laptop that is not only powerful and portable but also comes with quality add-ons (e.g. microphone, webcam, networking) to help them collaborate with others on the go. And one shouldn’t forget about battery life either. While we don’t know much about HP 5101’s battery life, we know it promises to be an energy efficient netbook, so it does address every the needs of business individuals wonderfully. Certainly a good netbook to consider for corporate IT and small businesses.
