As a computer technician for a couple years its the fastest labtop I have ever dealt with to be honest.I ordered this Labtop for one of my clients and had the opportunity to set it up with windows 7.I think this labtop should be labeled as a Gaming Labtop and definitely a Desktop replacement.It played all the demanding high graphics games like prototype,crysis,call of duty WOW,Tom Clancy Hawx,Race On,Wolfenstein and a couple others without even lagging.I played all those games on the highest setting with dreamscenes enabled.and it didn't even hang or slow down for a split second.Its truly amazing with that HD screen.all the games look glassy and detailed.Right now I have removed all the games on my desktop it just doesn't look good anymore on my system.I am definitely going to try my best to order this labtop or even better for my personal use.It truly rocks.And big props goes out to RobertBagain for there fast shipping and having their items in emaculate condition even though it's a refurbished item.The labtop came without a scratch and as if it was brand new item.It worked without any problems atold.Keep up the good work RobertBargain.Hp really pulled out all the stops on this labtop.lol
However HP started it from the start. YES A CHINA MADE BLACK MARKET COMPUTERS. selling in on the market. Not design to spy on my Visa card, bank ccount,Persional ID, who I work for. Due to the graphic controlers and the OPEN-GL Files. it canss what the document is. one was sold to some on in California.
I filed many suck reports on many charges I am placing agisnt Hewlett Packard. Never both to ask me to look my my notebook computers and see for them selfs The Federal Goverment must learn about why I am doing my reports. Hi there , I har buy giving your computer shoppers a complete make over on this review. Power supply. over a arument on the phone. printing out a code in yellow dots on the paper.
to kill poeples computers. using Cbina made black market parts. then Hewlett Packard gets all the documents and sells it to big corperation. when I tell Hewlett Packard to give me back the money. othter Dead design problems are Over heating motherboard. This is not hate message. however I will be more then willing to sell my dead computers to any one is willing to take on Hewlett packard. never the less due to the due to the freedom of rights.
HP can do what ever they please. the mail I have everty thime I file a report ends up with hire my own atterney. I got email from the US goverment not to keep filing new reports on Hewlett packard. Gee wis Hewlett Packaerd paid money to the Federal Goverment in order to have black market protection from the Federl Govmerment. build more and more and more. Note I do not have the money to dotate to a product like that. ripping off consumers and the consumers do not have the right to ask quetions on the subject.
Due to full cost of Hewlett Packard's corp level bank accounts. HP dose it for the all mighty constituion rights. Micorosft main O.S. GTA IV PC for one example is also a spyware driven sending spy in my computers to block the software and the computer to work. Not a way to treat the tax paying consumers.
when I pay for something. well to tell the real data. Let the warrenty due. runs to darn gone hot.
I wanted 8 months for a replacment. Windows Vista. One other thing. Hell I paid for it. Hewlett Packard design to have no service. Make Beleaved they fixed it. comes complete with spyware hardware and spyware software. I do not recomand Hewlett packard to any consumers.
who I am shopping with. if you want soemthing to use in court. The real deal of Hewlett Pachard or I like to call them parden my french to the consumers. all of there notebooks comes with the worlds worst O.S. \HP sent me a dead designed notebook computer called DV7-1000z same the usbal dead design issues. Hewlett Packard dose argue and fignt over the phone. World wide bank accounts.
The bigest customer I think is the US Federal Govermentto help out in some of there privet objective. I had persioal taken the mater to the US Goverment Atterney General office. to enforce the all sales are final. Ok Fine. that will over heat and dies. when I told them them not do build dead computers for a living.
Blacking out my own persional sofwrare that I paid money on. I hade the windows go out of control and gut stuck or blue screen of death. lazy work form Federal goverment atterneys. Lets stat off that Hewlett Packard is nothing more then a black market. I demand the service I need.
some one with money wants to take down Hewlett packard can easy send me a message. HP dose not need to do this evel work for them. if any one wants one can buy my dead computers 1,200.00 each Full cost. never the less let the warrenty die. on the market.
what I ment is my persioal ID and who I am where I live and what I do on the DV92000 series notebook will be sent on secret spyware hsardware and software is designed in to the Notebook computer. So they blacked it. Hewlett pckard killed my account. Waste my time and money. never send a federal agient to shut Heewlett packard down. Hewlett packard dose not follow instutctions from the consumers.
well becuasde I did not order it from HP it will not work. Do not take it the wrong way. Go to my privet atterney. if not. Hewlett pckard sold one of the three dv9000 series notebooks that are bead desisng. No warrenty.
in the USA its not allowed to use those hazard products however in China there is no law o hazard products. Due to the Full Cost. there excuse is its too old. Heavy amount of blue screen of death just on opening a foulder. Hewlett packard prodcution line is bad for the envirement. Not of there busiess to do so.
Evne the real fact I do hate these big corperations. Not to file reports. why its too old. Microosft dose take heavy amout of the blame for this issue. HP dose not do anything.
I kid you not. it clmes it dose however it dose not. ALSO INTO THIS SPYWARE HARDARE AND SPYWARE SOFTWARE. Hewlett packard tech support is the far worst ever or even same as Dell. lets start of with the DV9000, DV9200cto sereis Notebook computers talk about bad design. I am serius. and the Federal Goverment of the United States of America dose use Hp servies to spy on who ever the Federal govement wants to do.
the information was gaven to me from the corp level of HP. Buecase I did not follow there rules and regulations. well cannot access the internet. Word of caution. so far I have to hire my own atterney. Hewlett Phuckard.
I am one consumer. Unable to install sofrware and runn it beucase I did not order the software from HP. Hewlett packard phone support realy stinks. building black market computers.
Hewlett Packard /EBAY/PAYPAL must go out of buiness. using not save production in China. I got snail mail demanding me to do the same thing. want to keep a eye on some one. did you follow the special report from CNBC reguarding big corperation ripping off peoples ID. Hewlett packard was on this report on there Lazer Printers. may melt down or explode with out warning.
If you want my dead computers to prove it. Still the DV7-1000z also main objective is the Windows Vista and the hardsware simply makes a dead computer run dead. I want it to work. come on. I will be more then happy to support any one that is willing to take down Hewlwett packard.
I have been very pleased with this laptop. But it's a pain if you just want to check the weather or movie times. Love the picture and sound quality when watching DVDs.Only gripe probably has more to do with Vista than HP.
This is not a laptop to travel or commute frequently with due to its size and weight. This beast takes a lot longer. I knew what I was getting when I ordered it.
My old Dell running XP took under a minute to wake up from sleep. But easy enough for me to haul around the house or to the local wifi spots. Plenty of speed and power to run my apps.
This is ok when I can take the dog out and make tea while it's starting up in the morning. Guess I'll have to use my phone for fast web access.
When performing basic functions that are not graphics intensive, such as browsing the internet, creating documents, etc I get up to 3 hours battery life. There is zero delay when manipulating even extremely large vector graphics in my graphic design software.I have never run out of memory. I don't use this most of the time. But it comes in handy if I want to control music or movies in Windows Media Player or iTunes from a distance.Built in microphones are super sensitive.so are the touch sensitive buttons. Just look at the specs then look at the price.Lots of memory. If you are watching a movie, you won't need to attach them to external speakers to get good volume.I can play most games on the highest settings. There are only very view games that I can only play on the next-to-highest settings. So my screen stays smudgy until I can get some screen cleaner.There is no direct microphone to speaker output with this sound card and it's drivers (and currently no driver updates that solve this).
It seems to scratch easily. Probably too beautiful. If I'm playing a graphics intensive game I get about an hour and fifteen minutes.Media Remote. I am a software engineer, website developer, graphic designer, amateur musician, and gamer.
It isn't too glossy like other machines where you can see the waves across the screen used for diffusing the glare.Good battery life for it's class. The subwoofer produces enough bass to be noticable, which is more than I can say for many other laptop speakers. That being said, they're still just laptop speakers. And if the day ever comes when I need more memory, I can double the memory if I wish.When using music production software like FL Studio or Pro Tools.
I bought this notebook in the middle of November 2008. It isn't loud, or noticeable if playing sound from the notebook. I get no latency with the sound.CONS:The screen is very sensitive to grease and dust. Also this means that I cannot use it to amplify my guitar as I do with my desktop computer. I am afraid to clean of the screen with ordinary materials because of this. Being able to plug in two headphones or have two outputs is cool.
Also, the contrast between the letters on the keys and the colours of the keys may not be sufficient with the glare coming from the screen, or if you have poor eyesight, or are using the laptop in dim light.It's hard to get a second 320GB hard drive (with mounting bracket) or 4GB memory cards from HP. They work as desired.It's a very beautiful machine. I use the notebook for all these things, and this is the perspective from which I will write this review.PROS:Good value for money. But I routinely have my browser open, while a virus scan is running in the background, my instant messaging programs open along with other utilities, and playing a graphic intensive game, plus it's running Vista Premium (memory hog). I looked at all the major (and some minor) brands, and this was the best value for money. So you cannot rout you're mic through is if you plan to do some DJ-ing, for example. You may get obsessed with keeping it looking shiny, or just totally give up like me.Enough ports to keep you connected to all your peripherals, and bluetooth to connect to other peripherals wirelessly.Best speakers I've ever heard on a laptop. But the word 'Independent' misled me to believe that I could have separate sounds go through each of the jacks - for example, I could have Media Player play through one, while have iTunes play through the other.
However you can get the 320GB hard drive, and get the mounting bracket (required to install it in the second hard drive slot) from a third party vendor.That's all I have to say for now. I spent several months trying to find a 17-inch laptop within my budget. This was a big disappointment for me.'Dual Independent Headphones' are simply just two headphone jacks with a fancy name. And programs that do facilitate direct mic to speaker output usually cannot operate without latency. Of course, memory is still finite. The last time I checked was about January of this year. I open as much applications as I want. It comes with 4GB of memory installed and is upgradable to 8GB.The screen is bright and crisp.
But the hard drive should be silent - which it is most of the time - but I find that sometimes, especially after running the notebook for long hours, the hard drive starts to make a clicking noise.The keyboard isn't backlit. They are also really loud. For the first time in my life I can truly ignore memory. But I can't.Hard drive makes horrible clicking noise sometimes. Hope this was helpful.
It is amazing. It's my first notebook and I really love it.But, I think HP should bring this spectacular product with a better operative system. The Vista Premium is incredible slow so I had to change it.
