With the official release of Vista for public use looming ahead, so does the release of the HP Pavilion TX1000 notebook. Featuring a touch-sensitive 12.1 inch widescreen display, a built-in webcam (mmm…amateur porn), fingerprint biometric reader, and a removable DVD burner, among other equally gadgety gizmos, the TX1000 is one hot momma of a laptop. We happen to love the tablet swivel design of the monitor despite some critics viewing it as a sign of fragility. Just don’t get it if you plan on punching the display over and over again with a closed fist and you should be fine. — Andrew Dobrow
