After my last 5 year old compaq laptop decided to die, i thought it was time for a new laptop. After searching the net for ages i decided on this laptop for its features and its looks. I had trouble deciding whether to get the intel core2duo or the Amd Turion processor. To be honest i dont think it makes much difference, as this laptop is seriously fast. With 2GB of RAM and 250GB hard drive its by far the best on the market in this price range. As i took it out of its packaging it really looks stunning, and surprisingly lightweight considering the size. Vista is running really smoothly and the processor runs really quiet and cool. The only downfall is the webcam voice recorder. I had a quick play with it and it doesnt seem to pick up my speech very well, maybe i should shout! Im sure i can tweak it though.
All in all very good laptop. I will be using it as a student, for work, watching videos downloading and listening to music. So many applications open at the same time.
Definetly reccommend this. However do not buy it from play.com as the first one i ordered got stolen in the post, and then waited a month for a refund!! Amazon was perfect. Next day delivery before 1pm
Overall very happy 5/5
Excellent!
As my old laptop decided it couldnt make it into 2008 and pretty much died on me, i bought this one a few days ago (end of december). It arrived very quickly (despite the new year) and has so far been brilliant! It runs perfectly, is quick, efficient, didnt even blink when i transfered my endless amount of music onto it and handles games (well, The Sims 2 and such like) fine! I'm actually amazed at how good it is, especially considering the price!
The only glitch i had was that it needed a hp update to connect to my sky wireless modem, which took me a while to figure out, but once i downloaded the update (2mins max!) it detected my network and the network of everyone within about 5 houses of mine!
So if your considering getting one, my advice is do, you most certainly wont be disappointed!!
I wonder why they don't say...
... that it has Windows Works 8.5 and Norton Anti-Virus already included? If they had I wouldn't have needed to return the copies I ordered with it! Grrrr!
Very Happy!!!!
the laptop is a dream! quick, built in with the most modern software.
really reconmend it.
only one problem it wouldn't connect to the internet (wireless) straight away, it wouldn't detect it. i had to ring up the help line (that as provided with the laptop) and they sorted it out within 10 minutes. (apparently happens a lot)
BUT apart from that, this laptop for the price is definatly goood!!!!
great value
When you look at the spec on this and then at other similar priced laptops this really is good value. delivery was super fast and it looks like a quality product. Worked straight out of the box but it did take about an hour to make the reccommended recovery discs in case you ever need to boot it up this way. I used two DVD's for this - if you use CD's it will use up to 9 discs.
One feature on the desktop (which makes it parent & child friendly) is an icon to set the laptop up for kids. I don't need this feature but I reckon if you're a parent and your young kids are going to use it, it is a time saver and a comfort to follow some sort of wizard to set it up for safety before the young 'uns use it, rather than figuring it all out for yourself. Very pleased with this purchase and Amazon doing well again as the seller.
