Hello all. I am new here. I have been searching for a computer forum, and I found this one. I was just wondering what you all think of the new HP DV1000t notebook. I just bought one, and the anticipation is killing me. I am not sure what to expect with this computer so I was curious if anyone else has one. Well here are the specs on my new system:

Operating system- Windows XP pro

Processor- Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo Processor T2500 2.0GHz

Display 14.0" WXGA BrightView Widescreen (1280x768)

Graphics Card- Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator 950 w/ WebCam

Memory- 1.0 GB DDR2 SDRAM (1x1024)

Hard Drive- 80 GB 5400 RPM Serial ATA Hard Drive

Primary Drive- LightScribe 8x DVD+/-RW & CD-RW Combo w/ Double Layer

Networking- Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network w/ Bluetooth

Battery- 6 Cell Lithium Ion Battery

Productivity Software- Microsoft Works (Microsoft SBE coming soon)

Security- 24 Month Norton Internet Security 2006

Accessories- HP Remote Control


I think that is everything, let me know what you think!

Thanks
 
Well I've had a DV1000 before and it was a great little unit. Awesome features, too. The only downside to it was that it suffered the same light leakage as the Toshiba 14" glossies, and it also got insanely hot underneath. If they fixed those 2 problems, I think that would be probably one of the best notebooks ever made.
 
Thanks for the info. Hopefully they got all of that fixed. I have read several reviews of the DV1000t, and the one said the BrightView display was among the best they had tested, so I am guessing that issue is fixed. The other said that the 2.0GHz Core Duo ran fairly cool during the tests they ran on it. It also mentioned that its bench mark tests were among the fastest notebooks they have tested, so hopefully this thing will be fast. Again thanks for the fast reply.
 
Yes, please keep up posted when you get it. I like how they crammed in the webcam in the new series. I believe the heat generated underneath was from the HD. SATA should run a bit cooler on the new one. Congrats on the new system. :D
 
Thanks alot! I cant wait to get it, and I will make sure and update you guys on how it handles everything. I currently have Dell 600m, and have not had very good luck with it. I have had motherboards, memory, hard drives, processors, touchpads, keyboards, modem etc replaced in it, and they still tell me its not a lemon:confused: figure that one out lol. Oh well, I stayed away from Dell this time, because of some trouble I had with them fixing a couple of the problems. Oh well, thats all in the past, and hopefully this one will be trouble free. I know a number of people that have HP's and have had no problems with them at all. March 2nd is the shipping date so I should have it next weeks sometime. Thanks again
