how much was this? i'm looking for a laptop and i was wondering the price of this

[razgriz94]

When I bought it, some time ago, it was around $800. I'm sure you could find something similar to this for much cheaper now.

This was a VERY good review, but I have just one question: Does the laptop come with the 64-bit Windows Vista? Because I want to upgrade to 4 GB of RAM. thx

[razgriz94]

Sorry, it comes with 32-bit Vista Home Premium.

[linkwinkl3r]

what is better windows vista home premium or windows vista 64-bit edition or windows vista home basic?

[razgriz94]

Depends on what you plan on doing.

For everyday things like browsing the web, Home Premium 32-bit will be fine. But if you want to run more demanding applications that might require more RAM, or utilize the CPU more (ie Photoshop) then a 64-bit version of Vista would be better.

Home Basic should only be used if you're computer is really low in the spec department. For most of today's computers Home Premium and up work better.

Fixed it a while ago, was the video chipset, anyways it still sucks

[dvangar]

fixed it a while ago, was the chipset that overheated...

[asutuh]

@dvangar its a hardware issue than you will have to send it to a specialist since upgrading it won't really work. Plus you have to use a dvd drive so you can upgrade so how would that work?

[beachnative420]

This laptop is a useless sack of shit. The stupid power port doesn't work and you have to hold the fucking power cord and jiggle it to make this over priced pice of shit usefull. Know what HP wants for the part? $47.50 + shipping and over 3 hours to replace the fucker. Shitbag fucknose bullshit o rama ding dong this thing sucks!

[dvangar]

now it isnt working the DVD or microphone jack even tho the DVD whie starting checks itself and the unused USB port can be used for recharging a motorola bluetooth headset...

Contacted HP and they say its hardware issue so, if i upgrade to 7 will it still be the same?

[dvangar]

mine sucks, battery lasts like 5 min on batt saver and the mic and webcam arent working, also a usb port that i never use it SUCKS!

[myheroscape20]

thanks! i was thinking the same thing, cuz i noticed it was made in 08'

You need to take your laptop back to where you bought it and see if you can stretch the salesman's sphincter wide enough to lodge that failing laptop up into the ass of the clown who sold it to you!

It was designed by Mid-eastern and Asian "engineers", people who are still using single ply toilet paper and dealing with outdoor plumbing. Yes, we ALL have heating problems but the smart ones have learned to cook steak on the processor chip. When the world gets lemons, look for the HP logo.
