We recommend the eye-catching, media-friendly HP Pavilion dv7-1025nr desktop replacement for students who want a laptop that doubles as an entertainment center. Gateway, however, has a slightly cheaper 17-inch model that's better suited to gamers.

HP Pavilion dv7-1025nr

By Michelle Thatcher (cnet.com)

Refined Pavilion design ; frameless" display bezel enhances screen's appearance ; high-end Centrino 2 components result in great multimedia performance ; touch pad On/Off button ; light-touch media controls ; dual headphone jacks ; HDMI and eSATA ports

Glossy finish easily picks up fingerprints ; metallic touch pad provides too much drag ; fixed configuration lacks Bluetooth and Blu-ray ; frame rates adequate for casual gaming only

Awesome sharp display, sleek and very eye appealing notebook. Has plenty of horse power to play games, movies, programs. I opted to replace Vista Home with Server 2008 Enterprise 64 Bit, everything works like a charm with no problems.

As in the review the metallic finish leaves finger prints easily, however it comes with a cleaning cloth.
