 Nice Laptop for the price July 1, 2010

This laptop is one of the best on the market if you take the specifications and the price into consideration.
It has performed well for me since I purchased it (approx. 1 month). One of the main reasons I bought this laptop was for entertainment purposes. It is difficult to get a laptop with a decent set of speakers built in. After purchasing a Dell 13z, and being horrified with the sound quality, I went for this. The lancer speakers are great for listening to Music and watching DVD's.
Windows 7 performs well on the Turion processor (one of the reasons this laptop is cheaper is due to the Turion processor instead of Intel) and seems to handle multiple applications well.
There are 2 main grumbles about this laptop that i can see:
1) The battery life is relatively short-approx. 2 hours on full power settings while watching a film (keeping in mind that this will most likely decrease as the laptop ages). There is however a power saving option which increases the life of the battery to approx 3 hours.
2) This laptop suffers from heat issues as do many of the HP DV ranges. I owned a similar DV which suffered from the same problem and eventually the mother board burned out after playing games on the machine. This is something to keep in mind if you are purchasing this laptop for gaming purposes. I refuse to play games on this model for that very reason. Supposidly HP have sorted the problem but 300+ people have registered there complaints online about this issue with HP Pavillion laptops (search 1 long 2 short beeps on google), it must be noted none, so far, with this model but it is early days and I am skeptical.
Althought the two complaints above are series I believe HP make very good laptops, especially this one for the price, hopefully the cooling system has been fixed on this model in comparison to my last Pavillion.
All in all I think this is a good purchase, unless you have a spare £800 to purchase a Mac. In the end you get what you pay for.
What a buy!!! July 7, 2010

I bought this laptop only yesterday, faster service I have ever had.
This laptop does get hot sometimes, so a laptop cooling pad is needed ( I recommend the Logitech N100 Notebook Cooling Pad) it is very effective. The Hp DV6 Laptop has incredible screen brightness, fast speed, quite light, not as light as a netbook of course, has very powerful, well controlled speakers, mouse pad very attentive but buttons quite firm.
Altogether, i would highly recommend this laptop for anyone who needs a cheap entertainment system for around this price :D

Very pleased ....... last 5 laptops were Acers,Compac, Toshiba ...... all good, but this HP seems to be the best yet.... speed, capacity etc .... glad I went for the 4 gb of Ram and not 3GB. All happens so fast.

This is my first laptop and has been easy to set up initially and I have enjoyed the flexibility it has given me. I have had no problems with the computer and am very happy with my purchase so far.
