Like a computer technician, the less laptops that i receive to repair, are this specific brand and model.  The support  that HP offer is awesome and fast.  I bought this model and is more easy to handle and the specifications are excellent. If you 're looking for a Laptop, think seriously about this...

The HP Pavillion DV6000 is a pretty heavy laptop for it's size. The OS of Vista was quickly removed and added Windows 7 (thankfully there is drivers on HP's site for this) The software installed is awful, which a clean wipe fixed. It overheats though, as i've had it repaired by HP twice due to a GPU...

This HP laptop is awesome!

I got this laptop a few years ago and I still use it daily. It works great! I've never had a problem with this laptop. As long as you keep up and do regular defragments and virus scans and disk clean ups it works like new for a while. Yes over time like most stuff,it will start to become  a little slower. It's very easy to use for someone wanting a simple laptop,and it does have wifi,which most do now.

I noticed in the cons someone added that the screen dims on battery. Yes it does but there is a way to control that. You just go into control panel and there should be an option about brightness...

I purchased this laptop to replace my bulky desktop computer, and now use it as my sole computer.  I like that I can easily use Skype and other services to communicate with family via the camera and built in microphone.  I found the preloaded programs to be a bit cumbersome, and deleted many that came loaded on the laptop, but otherwise find it easy to use and maneuver.  It has a nice, easy to use keyboard and hot keys.  Nice screen, clear graphics.

Good for the money

I bought this for my husband. It lasted through a deployment and everyday here at home before and after it. It has a great screen. It's easier to carry around. But, it has vista. The camera on the computer is great. There really isn't much to say. It is great for the price and I am always worried about price.

Good Price

We looked at all the different brands and they all seemed to come up short on harddrive space, memory or add ons except for the HP DV6000. I wasn't going to settle for less than 2GB of memory and had to have at least a 140 GB harddrive and the DV6000 had it. On top of that it has the built in webcam which I wanted so that I could chat with family and friends without always looking for my cam.

This laptop is a really great deal. It has a great processor so you can really get things done fast. It has the same video card as my Mac I use for work. I mainly browse the internet at home but sometimes I download lots of music and I watch movies from netflix on it. I love the lightscribe so I don't have to make labels for the dvd's and cd's I make. i love the screen the way it is really clear. It works even better with Windows 7 64 bit software and 4 gb of memory.

The Hewlett Packard HP Pavillien DV6000 laptop is dependable and easy to store and carry with you when you are on the run. The monitor is a perfect size and memory is efficient for everyday use. It fits in a small carry bag that protects it from rain, or snow or extreme temp weathers. You can take this lap top anywhere you go that has Wifi. The keyboard is easy to use and adaptable to anyone of any age. I would buy this laptop because I believe It is a great investment.
