"All Business? I don't think so!!! Its got plenty of fun built in!!!"
Pros: Gorgeous 17 in Widescreen, full size number pad, all the security you could want...Cloe from 24 couldn't crack this thing with all the Security features enabled. Very Good Battery, Solid feel... etc
Cons: I broke the scroll pad updating the driver from HP's website. But rolled it back and fixed it.
Summary: I Have only had the HP nx9420 for a few days, so I probably have not seen all the bugs that may come my way. But so far I love it. the screen is awesome, the keyboard is great. Its sold as a business class notebook but the nx9420 is all the desktop or notebook I can imagine ever needing, this thing is powerful. I personally don't care for the flashy packaging that the consumer grade machines come in, I like the simple black cases most of the business machines come in. Its a little heavier than I would prefer but I knew that going in. The other features make the weight a non issue.
