4/19/2010 7:53:15 PM Bought on Black Friday at local Base BX for $350. Initial machine never booted up due to corrupt BIOS. HP repaired very promptly (in fact, best Customer Service for ANY computer I've ever had!) and even shipped it to my vacation destination. They even threw in $100 worth of laptop accesories of my choosing from their website for my 'incovenience'. VERY satisfied!

11/11/2014 8:26:39 PM Every time I shut it down it says waiting for Windows to update-even if it updated 10 minutes before. I hate the MacAfee online back up advertisement that comes on at every start up. Uploaded new version of Firefox and then alll sorts of ads come up at every website-cant hardly see the screen through ads--mostly 'you have a virus-click here"
