This is nice laptop, no question.  At 15.5 pounds, it’s one of the those heavier laptops that fits comfortably on desk more than your lap.  What comes with the weight, but more screen… a 20 inch LCD screen to be exact.  The base price starts at roughly $3,000.00, but you can get this amazing laptop, free right above  you!  For now, onto some of the details.

It’s really a great, all-in-one entertainment mecca of a laptop, perfect for your dorm or apartment.   At first, the HDX looks like the standard HP lines with a piano-black pinstriped finish and cool splasher imprint design, but with the dual-hinge display you get a more versatile 20.1 inch, high definition 1680 x 1050 pixel LCD.  Bad ass.  There’s a slew of multimedia buttons and controls with a webcam and some great-sounding quad Altec Lansing speakers.

With the dual-hingle display, you can move the display back and forth to set a preferred distance for your eyes.  It’s tight and compact with a full-sized keyboard, and while heavy, saves desk space.

At the top, you can find controls for the normal play / pause / stop / forward / reverse / eject, as well as the normal controls for volume and added equalization.  There’s a feature button for playing DVDs, TV, and Wi-Fi radio.  These buttons are touch-sensitive, so you need to be careful where you’re resting your hands.  it was never a problem for any of us.

Overall, this is a great laptop for the entertainment hungry crowd.  If you’re looking for economy, the we advise looking at a MacBook.  But hey, you can get free laptops here, so what’s the issue with price?
