HP Pavilion Media Center TV m7360n user reviews (Pentium D 920 2.8 GHz)

Pros 100%The best for the money.

Cons graphpic card not the best,but very good

Pros dual core 920D, 2gb DDR2, 300gb SATA

Cons crappy video card for gaming

Summary I needed an 'all-in-one' box, and this came really close for me. I use it for video editing from a DV camera, home entertainment, gaming, home office, etc.

Only change I made? Bought a BFG 5900GT-OC video card. I'm almost satisfied now...

If you don't need dial-up, the modem can get dumped to free-up a PCI slot.

Favorite features? Front panel USB/Firewire/AV I/O connections. No more pulling it out to get to a connector.

Cons: The Power supply is wimpy, and any upgrade of the video card requires a bigger p/s (Antec TruePower 2.0 430, in my case.) But, it also cured mysterious 'lock-up's' I'd experienced with the stock p/s!

Pros 300 GB Hard Drive, 2GB Ram

Cons Window media Center controls everything

Summary I work movie maker from old videos and photos, also I work with scanner and all kind the media, I used to work with Dell because I'm working with this at least 8 years so I'd been using Microsoft computers for this long time ago, I work with programs like Screenblast from Sony and this program let you mix Pictures video and music very nice, now Sony have the upgrade for this program named Vegas Movie Studio, the only problem that I used to Have was the time to take burning a dvd, almost 7 or 8 Hours depending, anyway when I saw the HP PAVILION m7360n, 300GB HD, 2GB Ram all those connectors, in the from and in the back, I tough my dream comes true, I have this computer for about five months and I cannot make anything, the Lighscribe dvd burner in two session get useful and they changed me for another one but my big dissapointed is that every time that I tried to download a video to those 300Gb Hard Drive with the Vegas Movie Studio From Sony, one sign appear saying, " The Conexant Falcon Video Capture could not be opened, please make surethat is on and is not being used for another application or user," if somebody knows how to put this thing on please send a message because I have many Days asking Sony and HP and nobody have the answer.

Pros Really quick, many functions.

Cons Recorded TV to DVD, not easy

Summary The format the computer records tv in is DVR-MS (a curse from microsoft). So, if you want to put a show onto a DVD you have get a hold of two other softwares, that the computer does not come with. 1.) to convert the DVR-MS to Mpeg 2.)to put the file on a DVD that will play on a DVD player. All this I found after many hours of research on my own. Good luck and enjoys the other great things about this PC.
