HP G70-250US
$750.00
Released June, 2009
The Pros:Display is bright and vivid - excellent image and video viewing, especially HD content. "HP Imprint" keyboard is smooth and responsive - "glassy" feel is conducive to fast, accurate typing. In-line speakers perform very well - great balance between low, middle and high ranges with minimal "tinniness".
The Cons:Comes pre-installed with a vast amount of "bloatware" - many users will find themselves uninstalling stock applications in order to save disc space. Fairly heavy as compared to similar 17-inch models - 8lb. weight reduces portability, especially without a bag or carrying case. Seemingly prone to various operations issues after ~1 year of use - many problems (hard drive storage, audio intermittence, screen quality) are not covered by HP.
