 The HP Mini Netbook
Timbuk2 bag
Timbuk2 makes high quality bags for notebooks. This giveaway will feature a customized Timbuk2 bag to carry all your gear in. What's great about the Timbuk2 bag is that it's big and well-built allowing you to easily carry both your laptop and your textbooks.
The Perfect Pair
Netbooks provide great ultra-portability with their lightweight and compact design, making the HP mini a solid option for bringing to class and taking notes and offering quick and easy access to the Internet. But with their smaller size, netbooks can be limited in their use and a typical PC user will need a bigger, more powerful machine for important tasks.
This is where the dv6 notebook comes in.
The HP dv6 is a fast and powerful notebook that is well-equipped to handle all of your computer-related tasks in college. It sports a nice big 16” screen and looks pretty flashy as well.
So, with these two “companions” you have portability with one, and size and power with the other, putting in your arsenal a great pair of laptops to tackle all your challenges throughout the school year. HP offers a great combo at a very affordable price for budget conscious students.
Where you will really get the advantage of two laptops is when paired with the Syncables software.
This special software allows you to sync both machines together so you’ll always have the files you need on both machines. This way you can bring the smaller, more manageable HP mini with you to class, while leaving your bigger, do-everything notebook back at your dorm and still be able to access the same files on each computer.
24 other websites are giving away the same package as part of the HP Back to School Giveaway, giving you 25 chances to win 2 laptops.
