Processor: AMD Turion™ 64 X2 Dual-Core Mobile Technology TL-56 1.8 GHZ

Hard Drive: 160GB 5400rpm SATA

Memory: 2048MB DDR2 System Memory (2 Dimm) | Memory Slots available for Upgrade: 0 | Maximum RAM per available slot: 1024MB

Optical Drives: LightScribe Super Multi 8X DVD±R/RW with Double Layer Support

Screen: 12.1" WXGA High-Definition HP Bright (Resolution: 1280 x 800 pixels)

Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce Go 6150 (UMA) Up to 287 MB

Speakers: Altec Lansing

Battery [Life]: 6-cell Lithium-Ion [5.0hrs max]

Power Req: External 65W Adapter

Size: 8.82 x 12.05 x 1.23/1.52 inches

Weight: 4.0 lbs (1.8 kg)

I upgraded the ram when I bought it. Not a bad little laptop for an even 1000 (pretax of course). My only reservations is the kinda slow hd speed and the battery life. I saw another hp there for a bit more and while it was faster and had 2 gigs standard it had integrated video blech.

Still, its got enough power and is small enough to fit in a messenger bag. Also, this is not a tablet. The screen just swivels for display which is worthless but whatever.

BONES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Had the import for a while, it was only 15 bux at circuit city.

Not sure if this was a good purchase lol.

I bought a bag of HOT FRIES from one of the vending machines at work.

I saw those when I was little, never since...is it some east coast thing?

DJ_Tet · « **Reply #7 on:** September 14, 2007, 04:27:46 PM »

No it's a spicy, strangely textured cheeto, thing. And they have a compounding effect, the more you eat, the more delicious they are!

demi · « **Reply #12 on:** September 14, 2007, 04:38:34 PM »

I'd get that laptop for 1000, would make a good thing to take on travel.

Bloodwake · « **Reply #13 on:** September 14, 2007, 04:38:49 PM »

I overdrafted on my debit card.

SO NOTHING.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #14 on:** September 14, 2007, 04:50:20 PM »

demi: yeah thats kinda why I got it. I have a nice compaq widescreen but goddamn its heavy and huge, and im tired of using the old laptop case instead of my new messenger bag. Portability > Power for me, but it does help the video isnt intel ill admit.

bloodwake: WAMU wont lemme overdraft anymore, I just get DECLINED if its too much

I also sent the city of Lynnwood, WA a $125 check for deferment (doesn't go on your record) of my first ever speeding ticket. Been driving ten years...

I was actually going slower than everyone else, but the motorcycle cop picked me. Oh well, not worth arguing over.

That makes me feel more at ease. I checked through their Wiki and it seems like a solid company. Usually when a company makes shitty hardware, it's included in their Wiki entry.

bagofeyes · « **Reply #31 on:** September 15, 2007, 08:44:51 PM »

How much was it in yen?

Ichirou · « **Reply #32 on:** September 15, 2007, 08:49:08 PM »

20,800. It was either this or a new iPod.

Classic Sega racer gameplay. *cough* I can live with 30 as long as it's smooth as butter.

brawndolicious · « **Reply #37 on:** September 16, 2007, 12:46:49 AM »

yeah I heard the physics (which are the really interesting part of the game imo) are 60 fps so it'll play good.

Dude, IGN says that it plays like the Sega Rally games of old, but with track deformation, so that's good enough for me.

I don't exactly trust ign with gameplay impressions.
