After looking around, I decided that this computer offered a lot of bang for my buck. Shipping was very quick and communication was excellent from the Amazon supplier. The computer arrived unscathed via UPS.

It offers a lot of features that I wanted, e.g. fast processor, large hard drive, built in camera. It also has finger print ID--a feature I wasn't convinced I needed. It is an interesting accessory, however, providing quick start up.

After having the computer about a month, I'd say it fits my needs well. The only downside is a HUGE battery. I was not expecting something this large. When installed, it creates a large "bump" on the bottom of the computer. I hope it redeems itself in long, unconnected operating times. It does significantly add to the weight of the computer.

UPDATE: I had an issue with the battery and a pop up error message. The computer would not function using the battery and I had a message that there was low disk space on the D portion of the harddrive. After several hours with HP technician--4 of them--they agreed to having me send it back for repair. I just got it back--quick turn around time--but ABSOLUTELY DEPLORABLE service. The computer was returned with a form saying that HP did not service this computer!!! I should have bought the Mac!! This is the last HP product I'll buy!!

My wife bought this laptop the same time I bought my ACER Extensa laptop. After a month, her laptop is glitchy, buggy and slow. No matter what we try (formatting the disk), reinstalling the OS, virus scans, memory scans/cleans the only thing we can see is the hardware is cheep and lousy. HP service was no help either. This is probally one of the things HP adopted from their new "Compaq" partners who make the worst computers known to mankind and suffer from random computer strokes or other computer death releated problems. The ACER Extensa laptop is flawless and the same price as this machine except in the ACER for this price you get 4gb ram, 350 gb HD and an Intel Core 2 Duo Processor. We have traded this bugged laptop in for another ACER EXtensa. So much happier.

I bought this for my stepdaughter for a HS graduation present and she LOVES it. It's versitile, easy to use, and has everything that a young student needs to get started in college.

hi, im gus, from brazil.
ive ordered this hp laptop and everything is going well with it. no problems with the pc and it was delivered in time.

This laptop from HP Pavillion serves all my basic needs. The widescreen display is particularly handy when watching DVDs. Applications run faster than in some of the other models I've used, due to the processor, and I haven't come across many issues with the product in general. However, I do have a few complaints about this laptop. As any electronic will, using it for several hours causes the machine to get rather hot. However, with the vents wrapped around the back and bottom of the laptop, it tends to overheat and requires a fan. Though with the position of the air vents, there is no fan on the market that it sits on properly. The battery is chunky and gives a bit of a tilt to the machine if you lie it flat. Also, the DVD burner somehow managed to unistall within the first two weeks and I had to manually go in and reinstall the drivers. Other than these few complaints, however, I think it's a pretty good laptop.
