The HP Pavilion dv9200z offers everything you need in a well thought out media system. You can watch high def content on-the-go or on a big screen with full 5.1 surround. The battery life was disappointing, but when DVD drives became the norm, most laptops couldn’t make it through an entire movie either. While none of the Vista-specific hardware bling is included, no current models offer it either. Vista was responsive and smooth, but for those who want to avoid headaches, we would warn against the AMD chip and go with the Intel Core 2 Duo version.

The good: Beautiful design; bright, crisp display; complete set of AV controls, ports, and connections, including an HD DVD drive; long battery life; touch pad on/off button; excellent software. The bad: Display resolution could be higher; media controls provide audible feedback when pressed. The bottom line: The HD-friendly, feature-laden HP Pavilion dv9000z offers a high-end entertainment experience without the high-end price tag of competitive models.

AMD Turion 64 X2: AMD Turion 64 X2 is intended to be positioned against the Intel Core Duo was presented in 17. May 2006. The current consumption is not higher than with Centrino-Duo-notebooks (TL-45 with ATI Xpress and Mobility Radeon X300). This means, that approximative the same battery runtime and fan functions can be expected (with this chipset). However, the performance was 20% below the T2300 (1.66 GHz) due to the lower L2 Cache (Core Duo has 2048 Kbyte shared L2 Cache). Nevertheless, the performance is sufficient.

17.10": This display size is a standard format for desktop replacements (DTR). The DTR laptops are heavier to carry, need more power, but texts are easy to read and high resolutions are no problem.
