    "Best workhorse computer for price."

    by daironin on April 4, 2005

    Pros: Perfect keyboard for my big hands. Performance dwarfs Apple/Dell/Sony for price.

    Cons: Little heavy, not as sexy as the Powerbook, no longer available on HP site

    Summary: I was a skeptic about the ZT when I first saw it. Since I bought it last fall, and formatted the HDD to rid it of the HP extra-ware, its been flawless.

    I was surprised that it was taken off the market because of the dv1000. I saw the dv at Fry's and its way too "bling" with lights and buttons for me.

    The wireless is great, and the stability is excellent thus far. I am a business school student and I travel for work and this computer does it all.

    Only grips are that its a little heavy, the chassis isn't an "eye catcher" like the Powebook, and the fan is a little loud.

    I clocked this laptop against my custom 3Ghz with Corsair LL RAM and its comparable in performance.

    If you hsve really deep pockets and are obsessed with asthetics, buy the Sony or Powerbook. But if you want a great laptop with a great screen and a hearty feel, get this.
