4 of 5 GOOD Laptop Monday, May 26, 2008
Tien from Orange County, CA  

Good laptop for first time buyers and low end users. I purchased this laptop for mainly school along with minor gaming, surfing the web, some travel, word processing. For me, it's a tad bit too big I didn't realize how big it was until I begin traveling with it. I didn't want to return it because of the 15% restocking fee but all in all I'm happy with my laptop. I like the 15.4 screen easy on my eyes due to my poor eyesight. The AMD 2.0 ghz processor is pretty fast and the 2gb of ram ( i wish it was 3gb) is blazing fast. The abgn wi-fi card is a plus due to the draft-n technology. The weight 6.06-6.1 lb is on the edge of being heavy but just light enough for me to carry around campus. The HP laptop is a kind of bulky. This is not an ideal choice for hardcore gaming due to the weak video card. Another thing...........the battery is weak running at around 2 hr 30 min. I'm planning on purchasing the 12 cell battery which adds life to the laptop, however it also adds weight. Good laptop.
