"It was good. Then it broke. 1000 dollars for 2 years" By whojoedaddy

Pros: Great while it works. Love the dual screen mode. Fairly powerful graphics for the price. Pen isn't the industry standard, but I still like it.

Cons: Overheats from the first day. I had giant red streaks across my bare legs from having this laptop on it for more than 2 minutes.
Broke completely after 2 years. A simple search on the internet revealed this is extremely common.
Horrible support, called HP

"Winter heater device" By feathernetwork

Pros: Great features for the price tag

Cons: Heats up dramatically. HP support rerouted and hard to get hold of. CPU died after 2 years of use which is something never happened to any of the many computers I owned so far. The ventilation is probably insufficient to hold the heat and killed the CPU.

Summary: Design flaw that needs to be fixed.
