I finally got my laptop this week and I was going to do a review the next day but I decided that I wanted to use it for a few days before I decided how I liked it. I have to say though I am very impressed. I bought mine though circuit city online. I choose to pick it up in store and it was ready when I got there. I even got a coupon for 10% off an accessory, I choose to get a laptop bag. I will be reviewing that later when it actually gets some use. It’s a very cool bag.

On to the laptop, it’s an HP Pavilion Entertainment Laptop with a 15.4 monitor and some other nice features I’ll talk about later on. I have to say it was very easy to set up and looks great. It has a built in web cam with programs installed to use it, I still have to figure out how to get it to work with my programs, but I have got it working with the programs on the computer. It also has a built in microphone that works very well. I was surprised. I thought about doing this as a video post, but decided against it.

So far the laptop runs well, the battery last anywhere from 2-4 hours depending on what your doing. I have been able to watch a movie and a tv show as long as I turn off the wireless and shut down the internet. I may end up getting another battery, just because I travel a lot.  I also have not had any problems with it running slow, it’s actually quite fast, that may have to do with the 3 gigs of RAM is has.

It also comes with a light scribe DVD burner, I have not been able to use that yet, as I can’t afford the cd’s or dvd’s right now, but I have used this before and liked it. The only problem i have had so far is getting use to the keyboard and my drastic need for a mouse, which I went out and bought the day after I got the laptop. It’s just easier that way. Over all I would have to say I’m very happy with this product and would recommend it to anyone looking for a computer for themselves or a collage student.
