Editor Quote: "What I immediately appreciated about the HP Omnibook 7 Flip Laptop is how much thought went into making it durable and versatile. As someone who's constantly tossing my laptop in a tote between work events, I love that it's built with a sturdy aluminum casing that can actually keep up with my lifestyle. The two-in-one design also speaks to me — I can see myself using the tablet mode to quickly edit photos or jot down ideas on the go. For students, that same flexibility makes it easy to transition from typing notes in class to streaming shows in the dorm at night. The high-quality display is another win in my book; I've always been picky about screens (blame my MySpace coding and photo-editing days), and the crisp resolution makes everything from essays to creative projects feel more polished. Plus, the fast processor means I don't have to worry about my laptop lagging when I've got dozens of tabs open — something I know every student can relate to during crunch time." - Hayley Lyndes, shopping staff writer
