 Incredible desktop replacement with upgrade options Sep 01, 2010
How do I start? First the only negative things I have are the keyboard and touchpad. As others have said, the contrast on the keyboard does cause one to scratch their head. I learned how to type without looking, so it is not that much of a problem, but a problem it is in low light situations. The touchpad is right where I rest my thumbs while typing. The first thing I had to do was purchase a Logitech Nano mouse and turn off the touchpad so I take off one star. Perfect solution. Now the good.
This baby comes with two (2) drive bays, what a pleasant surprise with only one occupied from my vendor. When Windows 7 released, I pulled the original 5400 RPM 320 Gig drive and installed a 100 Gig SSD in the primary drive bay and a 7200 RPM 500 Gig drive for my data. I also pulled the two 2 Gig memory chips and replaced them with two 4 Gig SO-DIMM DDR2 800 sticks for a total of 8 Gigs of memory. This combination gave me a laptop some people would die for on their desktop. A lot of bloatware does come with this unit so starting from scratch with Windows 7 64 Bit was almost a no brainer. Some of the HP drivers for the entertaiment features, Bluetooth, Lightscribe DVD drive required additional downloads. They weren't automatic, but the basic drivers are with W7.
I built my own docking station using a 7 port USB hub, an ASUS VW246H Glossy Black 24" 2ms(GTG) HDMI Widescreen LCD Monitor, and a Logitech MX 5500 Revolution Black Bluetooth Cordless Desktop. Added a metal monitor stand for the monitor and the laptop fits nicely underneath with additional airspace underneath for additional cooling. Now I have the ultimate road warrior. Best decision I have made in a long, long time.
 Hewlett packard review Aug 30, 2010
every single time I buy a comptuer from HP them selfs it comes in dead and useless.
when it cannot be fixed. Void the warrenty and Hewlett Packard Demened me to mail my brand new computers to Africa and Donate the dead computers to the Poor people. HP have to re-design the entire motherboard and rebuild the computer from scratch and yet it dose not work.
No mater the make and model number.I went though four notebooks and from many different verersions. Not one worked.
Over heating motherboard that dies. Windows Vista dose not work. Opening a yellow foulder. Blue screen of death over the graphic controler and the open GL files error. or both at the same time. Controlers that do not work. Hewlett packard instuctions for a computer that Hewlett Packard cannot fix them selfs. Donate the computer to Africa and Donate the computer to the poor people. poor people cannot afford to build a new motherboard from scrartch. do a scratch build on a motherboard.. cannot do a scratch build on controlers. then do a Civil Law suit on it
anything that Micosoft cannot fix. Void the warrnety and demand the consumers to do a civil law suit.
I refuse to buy a HP /Dell and Toshiba Direct computers when something dose not work out of the box. they cannot fix it. send it in it comes back more broken. and the warnrety if void.
\The best thing to learn about a product is to read the low grades first. bewcuase that is the ones that count. it tells the fruad of the item
I did told you that all 4 computers did not work on bad design and opening a foulder or doing something. anything will be go to a
blue screen of death over Open GL Files and graphic controlers and or both. and over heat to death. and void warrnety issues that will not be solved
Its the AMD TURION, NOT the computer. Aug 14, 2010
Turions are the worst, i repeat the worst processors on the market. The single cores were horrible in there inception in about 2005 or so, and critics even claimed this was the beginning of the end for AMD. Athlons are pretty good and use to beat the heck out of Pentiums. Well with all the new I series out now AMD can barely hold its head above water and most places that sell them are wal-mart and staples, for much cheaper. Even Celerons beat the Dual Core Turions is benchmark tests or are not far behind. I have this computer and it was just horrible, the processor couldnt even handle Vista, and even today with 7 i've seen several people say omg this is soooo slow. I have a new HP Dv7 with all the bells and whistles and the worst part about it, yep you guessed it, the AMD Phenom Triple core at 2.1ghz. Thats a total of about 6.3 ghz total processing power, which is barely above my emachines pentium dual core 2.27. Actually the emachines does everything quicker, but can't play games, thats it. So stick with Intel, you'll be glad you did, i like mine because of the price, and thats WHY it was so cheap.:(
 Masterpiece Jun 20, 2010
I would have to say this is a masterpiece. This laptop is one of the best! I don't see how people can have a problem with this. I guess I learned how to type without looking at the keyboard. I really think its beautiful. When you get it you will be very impressed. It is a pretty large laptop and its heavy. It's made for a desktop replacement or a gaming laptop. The only problem I could see wrong with it for me would be that the usb ports need to be in a different place. They do get in the way of your hand if you have a external mouse. But I just bought a wireless mouse that has a very small adapter or use bluetooth. As for other devices use the touchpad. Other than that is a very powerful and great looking machine. Everyone will go WOW and just the features this thing has is totally awesome I don't see what else it could need maybe extra hard drive space?

This WILL fail and HP customer support will not help you. Jun 06, 2010
HP laptops are ticking time bombs. My Pavilion dv7 1260us got a power drain 14 months after getting it. Eventually the battery stops charging and even while plugged in it doesn't power on. After replacing the AC adapter at the suggestion of their website, and replacing the battery at the recommendation of telephone support they wanted $400 to replace the motherboard.
As I've learned the hard way like many others, HP has become a terrible company that makes bad products and has even worse customer support. I've had the Pavailion dv7 for about a year with no problems, then as soon as the warranty expires so does the device. Contacting customer support is about as useful as shooting yourself in the face. They are really sales people that are more interested in selling you more products that will not fix your device, and all done in bad english. Their once great customer support has been outsourced to India. You'll end up talking to somebody that knows half as much about computers as you, and reads the same trouble shooting tips they have on thier website.
I will never again buy an HP product.
