Many of my favorite laptops to recommend for budget-conscious shoppers are hundreds more today than they were six months ago.Then there's the HP OmniBook 5 to save the day. Don't let the retail price of $1,300 throw you off, either. This configuration has a 14-inch OLED screen, 16 GB of RAM, and 512 GB of storage, but it's frequently discounted.
