"Just a little off the top" is good advice for a barber, but who knew it would be a good suggestion for desktop-replacement laptop shoppers? The HP Pavilion dv6 (1253cl) ($949.99 list) fits just below the dv7 series with a 16-inch rather than 17-inch-class screen and correspondingly smaller chassis. Yet it packs the same potent CPU and graphics hardware as the high-end Pavilion dv7-2170us, and goes a step further by featuring a Blu-ray player instead of a mere DVD+/-RW. Except for one negative—a shorter-lived battery—it's an impressive argument that smaller can be more beautiful, not to mention more affordable.
