Buy a new or used Compaq business notebook nx9010 Browse online bidding sites to get a great deal on a Hewlett Packard nx9010. You may be able to find a new model at your local computer retailer but most have probably been taken out of inventory by now. Focus on used or refurbished models which you can upgrade yourself to customize.

I recommend:  Shop eBay to find the most options and to bid your price for a new or used HP nx9010 laptop. Check other websites such as VAI or Computer Online to find new models at not-so-great prices.

Upgrade your new or used HP nx9010 laptop to make it more current Take your existing HP Compaq nx9010 and make it better with internal hardware upgrades and Compaq nx9010 driver updates. You can only upgrade the 9010 so far but you can change out the RAM, hard drive, sound and video card and disk drives to make it run faster and more efficiently for your business.

I recommend:  Buy a new battery or plug-in adapter from Apex Battery or Amazon to keep your computer from constantly shutting down. Add new memory and download HP Compaq drivers to keep your HP nx9010 laptop in top shape.

Choose new accessories and programs to help your small business run more efficiently Once you have your computer running faster with new internal hardware, add external accessories and new programs to give your HP Compaq nx9010 all the tools necessary to run your business. Purchase office programs to organize your business information and extra speakers, mice and projectors for your business meetings.

I recommend:  Purchase a new HP printer to go with your laptop. You can network it to use with all your office computers or keep it in your office for your own personal use. Use Microsoft XP Professional as Vista may be too complex for the outdated nx9010, and install Office Small Business to help you with organization.

Purchase another model from HP or another brand at a similar HP Compaq nx9010 price Look for new Hewlett Packard laptop models, which replaced the HP nx9010, at HP's website or at your local computer retailer. New notebooks will have faster processors, better graphics, larger hard drives, higher quality wireless capabilities and will also be lightweight and easy to carry with you from meetings to office to home.

I recommend:  Search HP Compaq notebooks for a direct replacement to the HP Compaq 9010. Look for other notebook options from Dell and Gateway to stay in a similar price range. Sony VAIO and Apple notebooks offer more power and sleek looks but often carry a higher price tag.
