Harvey Norman’s current two for one sale on AMD notebooks is a mixed bag, but one particularly good bargain is the 11.6in HP Pavilion dm1-3216AU for an effective price of $349 (as long as you buy one for $698 and then get another one free). This makes it cheaper than any AMD powered netbook, but with significantly more computing power and much better specs.
The AMD Fusion E-350 (1.6GHz) is more than enough for productivity applications, and the integrated AMD Radeon HD 6310 graphics gives the 3216AU a surprisingly good amount of versatility. Streaming a movie to a larger external screen is one of the tasks the 3216AU can easily handle, which for an ultraportable weighing 1.57kg is very impressive.
There’s a lot to like with the other specs as well, including a generously large 500GB hard disk drive and 4GB of RAM. It’s very well rounded overall, and considering that it’s selling for a price that many netbooks struggle to match you really can’t go wrong.
