Customer Reviews There is no sound by .. Lin Luo () I placed the order yesterday and chose 1 day shipping. I was so glad when I received the laptop today. Now I found that there is no sound. If I use earplug I can hear the sound, but as soon as I unplug it I can't hear anything. Got really confused.
Best Laptop by .. Lulu (Madrid, ES) I ordered this laptop on the HP website and, so far so good I haven't had any problems. It's packed with features, and the best part is, that it's affordable. I got my laptop for $701.00, of course this was with the use of a coupon, and a student discount, plus the shipping was free, not only that, but I got free upgrades on the memory and hard drive. I think this is the perfect laptop for a student, because it's not that heavy and you can easily take it with you where ever you want. I also love the 14" screen it's not too big, but it's not too small, to me it's the perfect screen size on a laptop. The fan is a little noisy at times, but it's not a major concern. It also gets quite hot on the bottom, but I think most laptops do. The battery life I found to be so-so, not the best, but not bad either.
My computer specs:
-Espresso Black -Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 1 (64-bit) (free upgrade) -3GB DDR2 System Memory (2 Dimm) (free upgrade) -320GB 5400RPM SATA Hard Drive with HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection (free upgrade) -Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD -14.1" diagonal WXGA High-Definition HP BrightView Widescreen Display (1280 x 800) -LightScribe SuperMulti 8X DVD+/-RW with Double Layer Support -Webcam + Fingerprint Reader -Wireless-G Card with Bluetooth -HP Integrated HDTV Hybrid Tuner -HP Color Matching Keyboard -6 Cell Lithium Ion Battery -No Modem
Overall, I do recommend this computer, especially for students like myself who are on a tight budget, you'll get a lot of bang for your buck!
why best selling? by .. Mark E. Day (Earth) First of all, I do not own the unit, I am just hoping someone will comment on my 'review'. I searched for "laptop" in electronics, and then sorted the list by BestSelling. Now i see its ranked #1 in electronics, and #6 in laptops...why is it ranked so high if it has only one customer review, and that customer gave it one star? You'd think that with such a huge volume of customers purchasing the unit that there'd be more reviews? Or does no review define a good product--nothing to gripe about? Any answers would be appreciated. BTW i gave it 5 stars, to give it the benefit of the doubt if in fact it is such a good peice of hardware.
Excellent product used for 6 months by .. B. Cahoon (Austin, TX) I have a slightly different version of the DV4 that the one described, but the product has been outstanding. Very solid construction, everything works well - no problems at all.
The system came with Vista installed, but I have also installed Linux (Fedora 10) and am currently running Windows 7 beta. No problems whatsoever.
I have had many HP products over the years - and this is one of the best I have ever seen or used by any vendor. One reason that I chose HP was the super support - email, phone, download supports in the future, etc.
Looking forward to many years for a great product !
BTW: The product was not released until 2008, thus the review above that complains about the video card is not relevant to this product.

Video card problem by .. P. Aydinoğlu (TN USA) I`ve had video card problem twice in two years. When I wrote about that, Hp told me that they know that Pavilion series have that problem but there is nothing they can do about it. I have to to buy a new computer and it is definitely not going to be HP.
