    "1 GB vs. 2 GB is not a fair comparison"

    by ddietzel on August 31, 2006

    Pros: Fast, reasonable price, very nice looking, inexpensive extended warrantee, and support by staff who can speak English

    Cons: More powerful graphic processor option would be appreciated

    Summary: This new HP unit offers very good bang for the buck. The reviewer needs to rerun the benchmarks after snapping another GB of RAM into the HP for a fair comparision with the other laptops in the article. I'd be willing to bet that the differences in benchmark results between the three system would then be statistically insignificant. This unit will please all but die hard gamers as there is no option to order it with a high end video processor.

    I am in total agreement with you. I purchased this in fall of 2007 and brought the RAM up to 2 GB and have had no performance problems at all. I am not into gaming but have a great deal of pictures and added programs. Again, no performance issues at all.

    I wrote a review, and I could not agree more with you. The more powerful graphics processor WOULD of been nice, but then again if your wanting to play Call of duty or Halo or anything like that, this is not the comp for it .

    But totally man you hit it right on the mark.
