Pros:
Excellent value |

Cons:
a little bit on the heavy side to carry around I bought this for $549 after all MIR from Microcenter a month ago. Stylish design, good quality especially for entertainment watching DVD movies and listening to music.
I installed the XP and had trouble finding the WEB CAM driver and the HP Tech support was very helpful pointing me to the right direction even though she kept saying downgrading from Vista to XP was not advised by HP. The screen looks nice but sometimes may have reflection if you have bright light in your background. The battery seems to last about 2+ hours if you just browsing the WEB and read emails. There is a remote control in Express card format, comes with the machine but can only work in Vista mode for entertainment such as DVD playback or music playback. I wish HP can have a driver for XP as well.
I tend to avoid the any models with AMD processor which may have heat problem. Even though AMD said it can run in 64-bit mode but most of the Notebook I saw ran in 32-bit mode. Besides there may be may programs that still run in 32-bit mode. Finding device drivers in 64-bit mode may be a problem as well.
I have compared this with other brands and I like this HP design. Good job HP.

Pros:
When it works, it's ok |

Cons:
too many problems too soon 6 months after purchasing this lap top the battery failed. Though it was replaced for free, under the warrenty, it was still a hassle to have to send it back to the company & be without it while they replaced the battery.
Now, 2 1/2 months after the warranty has expired, the back ligh bulb in the screen has gone, & HP says that they have no bulbs available. I have checked with numerous dealers accross the states, & nobody has any.
My only choice was to go & buy a monitor & I have my lap top plugged into that, so that I can use it. Of course that sort of defeats the purpose of a lap top, as it is now no longer portable.

Pros:
it`s cheapness |
|
|
|
Cons:
the camera is one sided With all it`s properties, compared to the others, it stands out as a superior and yet cheapest laptop for now.
Many of my friends ended up buying this brand.
In fact, i recomend that all Humankind should buy Two and give one to a friend.
