Owl Bid 2nite Said: Great computer for doodling, surfing ( Nov. 16th 2009 )
I wanted a tablet to draw on and this is a good one. Does not support pressure sensitivity (which is fine for my uses) and I could not successfully use a WACOM tablet plugged into it for some reason, probably driver compatibility issues. Is lightweight and sturdy, and has occasional slowdown but it acceptable. The built in wi-fi saved my bacon a couple of times! I wish I could figure out a way to disable some of the buttons on the screen though.. where I normally grab it usually activates the dvd theatre thing. I am too lazy to investigate further. Battery life is fine.
M. A. Banuelos Said: do not buy ( Oct. 18th 2009 )
I bought this laptop in 2008. Esthetically, it's beautiful, glossy. The swivel screen is great, especially when travelling in tight airplane seats. However, after only a year I've had to reformat the hard drive once, I've lost icons to programs and have lost all wi-fi access. The computer does not recognize there is even a wireless card installed. Even the regular ethernet port is inaccessible at times. The worst part, is that HP has horrible customer service and they do not recognize the problems. It comes down to a terrible design flaw that makes its pieces incompatible with one another. The motherboard can be replaced, but eventually the computer will have the same problems. The pieces such as the wireless card and motherboard are perfectly fine. It's the way this computer and their pavilion laptop line have been designed and built that is defected. Even if you get an extended warranty, it will not make a difference because your computer will crash. No amount of repairs will fix it. I think HP has done something incredibly unethical for continuing to put these models out on the market knowing they have inherent problems. DO NOT BUY!!! It's one of the most affordable for a reason- it sucks!
Kim Tharpe Said: Good Idea, Short Life ( Sep. 23rd 2009 )
I ordered me a tx2000 series tablet PC, custom built, directly from HP. Cost about 1100 after I had it customized to fit my needs for graduate school. Loved this computer, until the motherboard went out after having it only 13 months. A repair that will end up being about $350 dollars! The unit had a problem with overheating. This machine would get hot enough to burn your hand. The repairman says that sometimes when a computer gets that hot, the processor will also burn out too. Just do your research and definitely buy an extended warranty, but good luck with customer service. I bought me a 14.1 inch Sony Vaio, and although it is a couple inches larger, I got a more powerful machine and have yet to have it even get slightly warm with use.
Tree Said: Whats up with the heat?! ( Aug. 29th 2009 )
I loved this computer for about 5 months. Until the heat began to auto shut my computer. The fan is working so hard to make sure it doesn't overheat. I always put a books underneath it now so the air can circulate better. I'm pretty sure the heat problem is the reason why my wireless card now doesn't work. From what I've read on other forums, this isn't just a problem on my computer, but on the tx2000 series. I have three years extended warranty, but from what I've heard its not worth giving it to HP because the same problems will re occur, or worse you will got new ones. I bought this to take notes in class, and it does the job. It quite light weight. The over sized battery doesn't really bother me because I'm left handed. It seems that HP isn't really caring about their products anymore. So please don't buy this computer or any HP product anymore.
