"Horrible battery life"
on by lyngalPros Light weight
Cons Battery drops 10% when PC is first turned on and not plugged into a power source, and screen is not as bright. After only 15-20 minutes, battery is down 50%!

"HEARTBROKEN, bought computer 1 month ago, it wont load."
on by rsolomo1Pros lightweight
Cons After 2 weeks of flawless use my computer experiences chronic unexpected system shutdowns and will no longer load my start page to complete a system recovery to a previous date.
Summary I did a lot of research before purchasing this computer and only recently have found poor reviews. This computer malfunction is a huge hurdle in my academic life right now. Not pleased with the problem!

"I got one for school and it is great all around ."
on by davidlupePros load up time is fast , controls on laptop very good. webcam cool lots of cool stuff you can do with it . Heat what heat stays cool for hours, fans quite . Light, can pick it up with one hand or a couple fingers. Burner fast with anything.
Cons The only thing I found bad , was the screen gets dusty fast , the mouse pad looks like i need to use windex on it when am done.
Summary All and all great deal . If your a student your like it stand out where every you are using it.cost is below 700 hundred . If your not a Mac head this would be a great laptop to get. All spes on it are good check them out your self. If you get one I know you like it alot.

"What a hunk of ****."
on by ponger556Pros Great specs, especially for $800.
Cons Took a long time to set up, CD drive broke within a month of purchase, sound had to be configured to work, not much battery power, freezes a lot for having 4 gigs of RAM and a good processor.
Summary I don't know who to blame, HP or Microsoft, but this computer is awful. Get a macbook for 200 bucks more.
Also takes forever to startup and shutdown.

"Get what you pay for I guess..."
on by Mikev08826Pros Nice styling. Webcam is nice. Mic is nice. looks good when I watch DVD's on it. I haven't noticed the glare the others are complaining about.
Cons Only 2 USB ports!!! I can't believe I'm the first to complain about that. Horrible battery life. I get about an hour with my sprint card plugged in. My internal wireless card just went today, but HP is sending me another... BOO HP!!!
Summary My 2nd, & last HP I will be buying. Just tired of the whole windows thing in general I think. It really is compact and does come loaded with nice features/equipment for the price I guess. Better battery life, more USB ports & I'd rate this 4 stars.
