(+) Looks good. Battery life around 4 hours. Keeps your legs warm on cold days! (-) Audio crackle. Gets too hot. Screen viewing angle restrictive. Slow to start.
Wrapped up in the HP Imprint finish, this sleek and shiny notebook will look good at home or on the road. All the power of a desktop, with all the convenience of a notebook PC at a price that's right.

Advantages: Remote, Bright and Sharp Screen, Lightweight, Large Hardrive Disadvantages: 1GB Ram, Only 3 USB Ports, Webcam Incompatability with Vista
...that the lid slams shut to secure closing.
HP includes 3 USB ports, including an ExpressCard slot and a 5-in-1 card reader.
A remote control is included to allow controlling of power, volume, DVD controls etc allowing you to watch a movie in bed and turn the machine off without getting up. This is a useful feature.
Performance from the Intel Core2DuoT5300 with 1GB of RAM is satisfactory, but struggles with Vista\'s aero interface.
The laptop is a compact size, comparible with all 15.4" models meaning its easily transportable.
I paid £699.99 for this product and all in all I am pleased with the Notebook. I would recommend this product to others....

Advantages: Powerful, excellent security, many programs included in the price, good price. Disadvantages: Due to being very powerful the laptop is a little large.
...After reviewing this powerful, stylish HP laptop my opinion of this Notebook is that it would be perfect for consumers who regularly enjoy watching DVDs, gaming and sufing the internet. The powerful Intel Core2Duo processor would have no problem in these tasks.
Security is often a worry for many PC users, but it would not be with this laptop. With a fingerprint reader users can have peace of mind that their laptop can be secure at all times. Added benefits include Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium along with many other programs such as Microsoft Office 2007 Home and Student Edition, a DVD rewriter, an excellent 250 GB Hard Drive and a 1 year warranty.
Overall this HP Laptop would be an excellent purchase for any home or student wanting lots of performance and added benefits without being too much out of pocket. With an offer...

I was given this laptop a few days ago...with Windows vista. I have had experience with vista so it was not that hard to get used to. However this was vista business so it did not come with the windows games which you are used to. With a dual core 1.9Ghz more
