The Pros:Gamer-quality video card. Cheap when considering what you get (9500M, eSATA, HDMI etc...). Altec Lancing speakers with built in sub.

#hp_hdx16 The HDX16 can be ordered with a higher resolution 1920x1080 screen. Still, with the 1366x768 screen, you can use the HDMI port to hook it up to a 1080p TV to enjoy all that the optional bluray rom and standard 9600M GT can serve up.
