The Omnibook 6000 measures a relatively diminutive 1.5 inches tall and weighs 6.5 pounds without peripherals. The battery lasts an above-average 3.3 hours. The 15-inch screen's native resolution of 1400 by 1050 will suit Web designers, graphics pros, and anyone else who needs a roomy display. It's easy to adjust the volume using the Omnibook's external controls, but its unimpressive sound keeps it from being a great multimedia machine. HP now includes a floppy drive and a parallel port cable, so you can use the floppy along with another device in the bay.
Documentation consists of one thin manual that covers the basics.
On the desktop, HP offers links to a variety of Internet-based tools offered by HP partners for backup and synchronization. Just be prepared to shell out commensurate bucks.
