hey guys. my notebook got in last night. here are some first impressions.

first off, the build quality on this is great, much better than expected. also, the 9 cell battery is much smaller than the one in the pics on this thread. i'll post pics when i get a chance.

Also, this laptop comes with a 2-year warranty according to the literature included in the box. One more thing hp's website messed up.

the one thing which has me about to pull my hair out though is the bloatware. i've NEVER seen so much bloatware on a pc. it was so bad that out of the box it wouldn't connect to windows update and i eventually got a bsod. after going through the recovery partition i got it working but it wasn't easy. i wish i had access to a vista disk and i'd just reinstall.
