"Great value for the money. Had it for 3 months now with no problems." on by raleighrider
Pros: Does everything I need it to do, which is web browsing and writing letters. Comes with the newest version of MS Works.
Cons: Has a "plain-jane" look.

"Very POOR Reliability" on by vertical2010
Pros: Light, Cheap
Cons: Poor Reliability, Poor Construction, Poor Support
Summary: I initially liked this product, until my CPU/Heat Sink fan failed after several HOURS of use. Then began the nightmare of HP support, who denied, diverted blame (toward Microsoft) and then misdiagnosed the problem, before damaging it further in repair. HP business laptops (in the $1,000 range) might be OK, but the cheap personal ones are unreliable. There's a reason they're cheap. And HP doesn't want to support these units. Stay AWAY!

"Wonderful Laptop, I would recommend it to anyone!" on by wlperie
Pros: 1 gb of RAM, 120 gb Hardrive, AMD 64 Athlon X2 processor, Windows Vista
Cons: Only a 60 day trial of Microsoft Office. A good bit of bloatware (which can be easily deleted.)
Summary: This is a great laptop. Vista runs great on it and is far better than XP. It starts up fast, opens things fast, and has pretty quick wireless. Speaker sound is great! Very sharp looking laptop, blue power light, charge light and signal lights on the front. Battery is decent as well. Of course, the best thing of all, is the price! This laptop runs as well and fast as any $1000 laptop. I would recommend to anyone!

"Hard drive crashed 18 months later" on by pilotgirl21
Pros: I had virtually no problems with this laptop until the hard drive crashed. I was able to use it for everything that I needed.
Cons: Hard drive crashed 18 months later. Went through 3 different power cords.
Summary: HP was of no help when I called to get assistance on fixing my laptop. I was told that they couldn't talk to me unless I extended my warranty. The bad customer service that I received is pushing me away from purchasing another computer or laptop from them. There is no reason for a hard drive to crash 18 months later. I recommend not using automatic updates when you have a computer or laptop, because I updated the night before it crashed.

"Great Laptop For Travel" on by dshishko
Pros: The screen is clear, bright and great to look at, works fine with 1g of ram as long as you turn off some of the things such as prefetch it is really fast.Works fine with 1 gig of ram
Cons: I have not found any uet
Summary: this is a great laptop for someone who is traveling and needs a good machine for it.the wireless is flawless,and connects at a super high speed,even when I was over from the access point.the screen is great I watch DVD movies on it constantly.the speakers work well though i do think headphones are a better choice.the DVD/CD burner works flawlessly and fast.i had a piece of software that did not install when I first set the machine up.I called HP/COMPAQ support and they helped me with re-installing it waited with me through the setup,and were extremely patient, helpful and professional.I paid $499.00 for this laptop,and I am getting another for my wife, she thinks it is great.the Processor is fine,and as long as you do not try to play really hardcore games,it will do anything you need and more.windows Vista runs fine with 1 gig of ram,though I would add another gig just to be sure.I am very pleased with this little powerhouse and after all the research i did, I think this is the best choice for someone who needs a great ,solid notebook for travel,school or home.
