Full review

I've owned this HP Pavilion zv5000 laptop for a while now and have yet to have any issues. I am running Windows XP on it and have a ton of software additions such as Adobe Creative Suite, Dreamweaver, some picture software for editing photos and more. I've never had a problem with a lack of resources which is a huge plus. This laptop can definately handle what I've needed it for. It runs on a Pentium 4 processor so it's pretty quick too. The graphics on the monitor are also great. The monitor is bright and crisp and looks great. I've been able to watch movies online with no problems either so the resolution is pretty good. The downside to this laptop is it's size and weight - but if you do not plan to travel much with it then you're good to go.
