dv6000 and dv9000

[LanEvoIII]

Well if anyone is still interested in AMD Turion X2 notebooks from HP this summer, I found out about these just recently (hope no one has already mentioned this). Even though the site is in French and may be directed to the french market (from the article), it should also apply to the North American market as well. It seems HP has placed semi decent GPU's in these newer models with the 7200 in the 15.4 inch dv6000 and a 7600 17.0 inch dv9000. I hope these come out soon and get to see some benchmarks to see how they compare to the previous models, dv5000 and dv8000.

Well heres the site translated...

Whow. The photo looks EXACTLY like a dv2000, but the article says it's a dv6000. Wonder if HP is coming out with the new design for their other models? It would make sense, as the design of both the dv2000 and v3000 seem to have generated widespread acceptance!

I'm just not sure if the article is mistaken in it's discription of the photo as a dv6000, because, again, it looks EXACTLY like a dv2000!

Its a dv2000, 100% the dv6000/9000 combo will probably see elements from the 2000 but not the same. It seems now HP is going away from the speakers mounted in the front and putting them in standard spots.

Is it true? Is HP finally giving AMD some good graphics (7600)! I thought this was impossible. Maybe HP will give Intel better graphics though (7900, maybe?).

YES! It's about time. It's not the 7900GS I really wanted but it'll do. Now I just have to figure out how to pay for my shiny new dv9000 when they're available...

i hope these new models would be available before the summer ends to get great APP discounts before school starts... im craving for a 15.4" dv6000

Oh my god, I want a DV9000! Or an MSI MS-1042. I dunno! But the DV9000 looks like a DV2000 on steroids.

Whow!

Guess that answers the question "Is HP going to implement the new designs on their other models!"

They both look sweet.

Any plans for Compaq? A 17" on thier new design would make me drool

Edit: Aw, so long as Compaq doesn't make the arrow keys level with the rest (scrunching the right shift key) I can't live with that.. Why, HP?
