Seems it needs another gig of memory, but has a 160 gb hd, can burn cds and dvds, has an nvidia 7150 video card (better than the ATI and Intel integrated offerings, and has firewire, etc..
So.. is it worth $500.00, or can you link another in the $500-$600 range that would be better.
Im going to want it to play wow, maybe some other older games (diablo style), etc.
Best Buy was selling this model for $599 after a $100 instant markdown, six weeks ago. Before that, it was $699. HP sells exactly the same model as
DV6719NR with 2 GB of RAM and a 200 GB drive.
So yeah, I think I got a hell of a deal.
The only limitation is two SO-DIMM slots so the memory limit is 2 GB, which is really minimum for Vista and plenty for XP.
