Just picked up two of these from ebay for $340 total. $170 each. WUXGA screen, 1920x1200.
This video has so many inaccuracies. The HD activity is near the edge not next to the screen. Also the display in the video looks more like WUXGA than 1680x1050, though it does come with that config as well.
I loved your video. I came across a site that will help your channel/video become more popular. It has really helped me out a great deal. The name is Tubeviews . Net
wow that was seriously not expexting that but i liked it haha very good job i am very appualed that, that even happend haah but it was a very nice touch
I don't know why this guy keeps saying that this notebook is only for business, simply because it's from the business range. I have the 8710P version of this laptop (17" etc), and I use it as a gaming laptop. Better put, BUSINESS notebooks are better built than the flimsy laptops you buy from a retail store which break after one year of use. And on another note, I think this laptop looks sexy!
I completely agree with you Kataroku, which is why I just ordered this (the KA456UA model) from HP after a ton of research. I am a personal user but more geared towards multi-tasking (10+ windows open at a time for programming/web development for school and business) but also wanted to be able to do some gaming. The design isn't flashy so doing work with clients I can hide my gaming obsession and get down to business. And a matte screen topped it all off for me. I hope it meets my expectations.
uhhh you don't really need THAT MUCH ram , as maximumpc tested , thesere isn't much difference with the 2gb 4gb and 6gb configurations , unless you got alot of money then go ahead
its ok,its not a bad laptop,but for 3d apps,atleast nvidia m9600 gs,atleast!!! if your a bussines man,this will do fine but if your a gamer,dont even think about buying this laptop!
I wish other HP laptops look like this. My brother got an hp laptop, and its soo shiney, glossy. I wish its easy to find a gaming laptop that looks like this. They all stand out too much for my taste.
Hey, that VGA port on the back, is that screwable? You can screw in the VGA connector thing? That's awesome! I'm always afraid that one quick jerk will unplug my laptop's second monitor!
God why are companies No longer using Vista for their laptops. It's a new age, they should switch to the newer software and newer Technology. I don't see why they use XP for Business anyway, you tell me one thing that XP can do that Vista can't.
Let's all downgrade to Windows 95, that runs faster than XP on even older hardware. If you're buying a new computer, arguing that XP runs faster on older hardware makes no sense, because you're not running it on older hardware...

Go for 6 GB RAM because DDR3 comes in tripple channel. So 3x 2GB or 3x 4GB would be fine.
