Great little laptop October 16, 2008
B. Klein
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I've had this laptop for two days, this is only a first impression. So far, I am loving it. For everyday use its brilliant (just don't try and play any high end graphics intensive games on it).
Design:
Its beautiful (not Apple beautiful more Nokia). It has no middle mouse button and all the sockets are out the side, if you connect a lot of cables that is going to be messy. It however allows the screen to be attached as a single roll bar, very solid, and great for adjusting the angle.
For GNU Linux users:
I configured it to dual boot into Ubuntu and Vista. Ubuntu required a fair amount of tweaking, but there are guides on forums so if you aren't intimidated by a bash shell you can get it all to work. Otherwise get a better supported laptop.
Pros:
Good solid and beautiful design (typical HP).
Quiet.
Doesn't generate too much heat.
Works well for video, browsing, documents (run simultaneously). No lagging in Ubuntu (no idea about Vista).
Cons:
Not well supported for Linux (Ubuntu 8.04) users.
Doesn't ship with a Vista DVD, rather you need to burn your own, rather cheap and stupid.
No middle mouse button.
Considering the low specs, the battery life isn't great (under 2hrs) but that probably helps the weight.
