Hewlett Packard Pavilon xf328 (F5913H) PC Notebook

Pros: looks nice, works great, screen, good battery life
Cons: none that I can find

I have owned it for about 1.5 years now and love it. very nice screen fast and a cdrw dvd drive.

Pros: Looks nice - maybe I'll frame it and hang it on the wall
Cons: Computer's worthless in less than a year.

Go for another notebook. I purchased this model and within a year, the screen started going out randomly making work on the notebook difficult. I called support to try and fix the problem and now the screen goes out more frequently (less than a minute now as opposed to 20-30 minutes before) - making any work on it now impossible. HP only offers a 3 month warranty with their refurbished machines and there are no options for extending that warranty.

Buy Dell, buy Sony, buy anything but HP.
