Amazon.com Product Description
Built for today's multimedia-savvy, always on-the-go computer user, the entertainment-centric HP Pavilion dv2410us notebook PC provides quick access to your digital audio and video library wherever you roam. Weighing in at 5.4 pounds, it travels easily and it provides a cool, modern look with a high-gloss durable finish and inlaid design inspired by Zen rock gardens as well as touch-sensitive media controls. Latch-free, the mechanical closure, unique speaker grill pattern, and color-saturated LED indicator lights further enhance this sophisticated design. It offers a widescreen, BrightView 14.1-inch display, which provides improved viewing in direct sunlight. Control settings for audio and video playback from up to 10 feet away with the included HP remote, then store it conveniently in the PC card slot. Enjoy movies or music in seconds with the external DVD or music buttons to launch HP QuickPlay (which bypasses the boot process).
Optimized for mobile performance, it's powered by the 1.8 GHz AMD Turion 64 X2 TL-56 dual-core processor, which offers 64-bit computing capability and higher throughput for simultaneous computing tasks. Other features include a large 160 GB hard drive, 1 GB of installed RAM (2 GB maximum), 54g Wi-Fi LAN (802.11b/g), multi-format/dual-layer LightScribe DVD drive (which can also burn CDs), NVidia GeForce Go 6150 video card with up to 287 MB of shared video memory, Bluetooth connectivity, multi-format memory card reader, and integrated Webcam for easy video conferencing.
It comes preinstalled with Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium, which includes all of the Windows Media Center capabilities for turning your PC into an all-in-one home entertainment center. In addition to easily playing your DVD movies and managing your digital audio library, you'll be able to record and watch your favorite TV shows (even HDTV). Vista also integrates new search tools throughout the operating system, includes new parental control features, and offers new tools that can warn you of impending hardware failures.
The Basics
Each processing core has a 512 KB L2 cache (for a 1 MB total), and this processor can deliver up to a 1600 MHz system bus for lightning quick computing reflexes. (An L2, or secondary, cache temporarily stores data; and a larger L2 cache can help speed up your system's performance. The FSB carries data between the CPU and RAM, and a faster front-side bus will deliver better overall performance.)
This LightScribe DVD+/-RW drive lets you laser-etch silkscreen quality text and images on to CDs and DVDs . Your software, PC and discs work together for a no-hassle way to burn just the labels you want. After you burn content, just flip the disc over, reinsert and burn your label--anything from a simple title to a full-disc work of art.
Screen, Video & Audio
While this notebook is actually as wide as standard 15-inch displays, the high-definition, widescreen 14.1-inch display (1280 x 800-pixel resolution) has the same form factor as a 12-inch screen--taking up less space on your desk. Video is powered by the integrated NVidia GeForce Go 6150 graphics/video card, which provides up to 287 MB of video memory shared with the system memory. It features NVidia's PureVideo technology--which provides great picture clarity, smooth video, accurate color, and precise image scaling for video content--and full support for Microsoft DirectX 9.0 for stunningly realistic cinematic effects for all DirectX-compatible applications.
The Altec Lansing speakers provide exceptional sound, and a pair of stereo earbud headphones with volume controls is included. You'll be able to privately share enjoyment of multimedia with a friend via the dual headphone jacks. One of the headphone jacks is also compatible with SPDIF digital audio output for home theater surround sound.
Networking, Connectivity & Expansion
This notebook has an integrated 54g wireless LAN that's fully compatible with 802.11b/g wireless networks. With the Bluetooth connectivity, you can communicate and synchronize with Bluetooth-enabled peripherals such as PDAs and cell phones. It also includes a next-generation ExpressCard 54/34 card slot (replacing the PCMCIA slot), which lets you take advantage of thinner, faster, and lighter expansion cards for even more advanced wireless, networking, storage, and security features. You get a very good offering of connectivity options, which includes both super-fast USB 2.0 and FireWire:

Customer Reviews
Great, until it stops working.
I have had this laptop for a little over a year. Besides being very warm (almost hot) when it sits in your lap, it worked really well. It has a lot of memory, Vista is easy to use, and movies look great on the screen. Unfortunately, about a two months ago it suddenly would NOT boot up. It just refused to turn on. I called HP and went through a lot of stuff, until they decided it was a problem with the hard drive and they said they would fix it for free (still in warranty). It took a month, but I finally got it back, and it seemed fine. They had to replace the motherboard, so I though it was fixed. A week ago is stopped working again, I called HP again but while I was on the phone it magically began to work (windows started and things appeared fine). They told me there was nothing they could do if it is working. So now I am out of warranty with a computer that routinely decides when it will turn on and when it won't. Don't buy this model- there is undoubtedly something fundamentally wrong! Next time I am buying a Macbook.
Complete waste of money
I bought this machine about a year and a half ago. Five months after I bought it, the fun began - and the only bright side to this story is that it happened under warrantee.
First, the DVD drive died. I sent it in, they repaired it, on top of a couple other repairs that they didn't report until after the fact (hard drive going bad, software corrupted). Two months later, the computer no longer booted due to a 'motherboard issue'. They held my computer for 5 weeks, pushing the expected repair date back twice. Finally they just sent me a new computer.
Five months later...the new notebook dies to the same 'motherboard issue'. They explained that it was possibly overheating; notebook wouldn't boot at all. Sent it in; another 4 weeks later I get it back. A month later, the motherboard dies AGAIN, only a little more spectacularly by corrupting the video. Sent it in AGAIN, and I filed a report to the BBB. I received an apology from HP regarding this claim, along with the statement that they were sending it back to me right away. I got my notebook a day later...and got the nice error 'Err1Err3' as soon as I tried to start it up.
I'm talking to one of their quality care specialists now, who is guiding me through the whole 'repair or replace' policy again...basically if it dies again, I'll get a new one. I also pushed for an extended warrantee since it's been in the bleeping shop almost as long as it's been in my house. But I've been told that the first two complaints don't count because even though it was the same purchase, it is a different product. I've been told that I can't get my money back on this overpriced paperweight because it's a repair warrantee, not a refund warrantee. I don't even know if they offer a refund warrantee, but maybe if they did, it'd make them a little more accountable for their products. I've had computers in my house for the last 14 years and I have NEVER had the problems that I've had with this model.
Malfunctioning computer + Terrible customer support = Bad Purchase
I purchased two of this model of laptop about four months ago. Since then, they have malfunctioned in many different ways. The most significant problem is that the trackpad stopped working on one of them within about two months. That's when I started with the nightmare of HP Customer Service!
After a significant process, HP finally agreed to "repair" the notebook, which took nearly a month. When the computer was returned, the problem still existed. Now, when I talk to HP customer support, they tell me that I have to go through the exact same process again (install drivers, upgrade BIOS, reinstall Windows, etc), and then return the computer for repair again. When will they admit their mistake and simply replace the computer?
