HP Releases the $380 15.6-Inch Compaq CQ62Z Notebook

Why get a netbook when you get a notebook for right around the same price. HP has just revealed and released the Compaq CQ62Z, which sports a 15.6-inch LED backlit display. Inside you'll find AMD's V120 CPU clocked at 2.2GHz, ATI Radeon HD 4250 graphics, 2GB of RAM, WiFi n, a 250GB HDD, a DVD burner, and a 6-cell battery - that should last less than 4 hours. This notebook is going for just $379.99 (here), which is actually extremely cheap. This is a pretty sweet deal so you should probably pick one up if you're on a budget. The worst part about all of this news is that it probably doesn't look as glamorous as it does in the press shot above.
