Well I've been looking for a new laptop for a while noww and since the beginning, my thoughts haven't changed on the laptop I want: The HP Pavilion dv9000t. I've customized the exact model I want on HP and the price seems very reasonable for such a powerful computer. Here are the specs I'm thinking of getting:
Operating System Genuine Windows XP Professional
Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 Duo processor T7200 (2.0 GHz)
Display 17.0" WXGA+ Ultra BrightView Widescreen (1440x900)
Graphics Card 512MB NVIDIA(R) GeForce(R) Go 7600
Memory 2.0GB DDR2 SDRAM (2x1024MB)
Hard Drive 100 GB 7200 RPM SATA Hard Drive
$2,031.99 is the price that comes out to.
From what I've seen, thats the best possible laptop I can get for that price. basically what I want is a fast laptop to use as an all around computer... I will do some gaming on it (not a ton) so I want to make sure this is going to be a solid gaming laptop. Unlike the Dell XPS, this is titled more as a "multimedia" laptop and I haven't heard much about it in terms of it's gaming ability... I'm just going by what I can see from the specs and all of them are better than my friends Dell XPS... I think. His processor is a Intel Pentium M 2.3 GHz and I'm wondering how that compares to the Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHz I got on this laptop. Any feedback will be much appreciated... thanks guys.
