Consumer review (productreview.com.au)

Good

Is quite a powerful and versatile computer, is a strong multimedia performer along with a high quality internet computer. You can;t really fault this computer.

High performance with both the internet and multimedia applications

A few issues getting a Windows recovery disk as their Technical Support division is in India but this was resolved eventually

OK

Is a enjoyable machine but the overheating is its major problem, when that kicks in find a good and cheap computer repair shop or buy a big fan and run it on hot days to keep the laptop from shutting down.

Good as a multimedia laptop.If more ram is used can play all newer games and is great for watching movies

Fan noisy and problems with overheating think thats a HP laptop problem in general

Excellent

This is my 3rd Hp notebook and all have been excellent workhorses. Far more reliable than other Acer and Asus laptops I have had previously.

Great overall performer, good discrete Nvidia graphics, good screen, full keyboard, remote control and bullet proof reliability after 3 years full time use on the road. Even better is that I have managed to upgrade it to 4Gb of memory after a HP Bios...

Chassis is not super stiff, so be carefull picking it up with one hand. I also have some paint wearing off the speaker covers, but it has had a hard life. Other than that I would have preferred a matt rather than a shiny screen as I work in lots of...

Excellent

It is multifunctional machine that allows me to do my business work and play when I want to. The screen is what sold me as it is so clear and bright. It looks better than some LCD TVs costing thousands.

Unbelievable screen and seperate number pad. Also love the remote control for watching DVDs. Fantastic for watching HD tv and recording if you have a tv set up.

Sometimes the mute button sticks but you use the software to get around that.

Excellent

I would have to say that as a first time notebokk owner, I couldn't have asked for anything better than this one!!! Go buy one today!!!

I love this notebook. I have had mine for approx. 12 months now, and use it up to 4 nights a week for Karaoke applications at hotels etc. It has not let me down once!!! In fact, I am buying another one to be used as a second Karoke show notebook!!!

Absolutely nothing bad to say about this notebook.
