Advantages: Thin, light, tightly built Disadvantages: Very poor screen that malkes this laptop useless.
...in my life. HP support replaced the screen - same thing. The problem is with the screen - not with the driver or graphics card. This laptop has "the best" 17" WUXGA anti-glare non-glossy display HP has to offer + NVIDIA Quadro 1600 graphics card with 512MB memory. Tried several drivers - same horrible quality. When attached to external monitor looks fine. But if I have to have an external monitor, - why use laptop? This is especially frustrating ... ...this laptop is touted by HP as ideal for 2D/3D graphics design and modeling. Nothing could be further from the truth.
This is simply false advertisement on HP part.
HP on-site "next day" "business critical" is support simply horrific. It took two weeks for the person to appear on site (he was supposed to be there next day after I reported the problem according to on-site service contract), did not fix the problem (well the problem is not fixable ...

I had bought this notebook for my wife for her birthday and anniversery and she had to return it for a full refund. It was defective on the wireless adapter. The graphics worked pretty good and was very nice. But could not get to operate on the internet. The different kind of features that it had was really good. Especially since it had everything that my wife needed for doing school work plus it was portable and was not heavy at all. It just would ...

Advantages: big screen Disadvantages: slightly heavier than normal
This is a computer that currently do not see much on the market basically for having a screen 17 ", all prefer a computer manageable and low weight for porder transported easily, but if what we seek is a computer that meets all features of a desktop computer for high quality and not take all day over this is our laptop. I just looked for a laptop to work from home and have a high-resolution screen to present my data clearly in any reunion of the ... ...laptop for more weight than usual. Its design is very original with a color in the black part esteriore that when you open the screen becomes all white frames the keyboard and screen. This is a laptop that weighs a little over 3.5 kilos to carry that hung all day on his shoulder is much weight, but everything is offset by its main features in a laptop that is difficult to achieve.

Advantages: Comes with great standard specifications Disadvantages: Can start to get pricey
...not when you buy a dell computer, you pretty much choose the whole thing to be built to your choice, which if you aks me means that the order process is all part of this pc!!
Now I've had my dell inspiron 1520 for nearly a year ( i'm even writing this review using it!) and even though you can order it to your specification, this model wasn't changed much from the basic spec so it gives a good insight into standard etc.
First off, upon ringing through ... ...order twice saying ''thats the dell inspiron in black with...'' I found this to be the most annoying thing as if it wasn't for the fact that it was this exact pc I wanted I would have at that point taken my business elsewhere. Its' not like I was asking for a lot of difficult unusual specs or extras - it was basic with a couple of simple things.
My pc did take quite a while to arrive, due to them waiting on parts which I can understand so just a ...
