Summary: A VERY GOOD LITTLE NOTEBOOK FOR THE PRICE
Review: I bought this computer with the understanding that any computer I purchase will be old technology within one year. Purchasing this HP ZE5730US, I received a computer that had decent memory, the latest Windows operating system, DVD & CD-RW capabilities, and wireless technology capability. (...). How can you go wrong. After a year or two, I'll buy another <$1000 deal and get even more technology than the guy who bought the expensive version when I bought this one, and still I'll have spent less than him! This computer serves me well, I'm happy to not be tied to a desktop anymore!

Summary: Average Product but SHOCKINGLY poor support!
Review: The keyboard is a bit flimsy and so is the display. Tech support is less than average with their knowledge level but the customer support is simply the most unprofessional I have ever come across! I don't think it is isolated since out of more than 15 people (including supervisors and case managers) I spoke with, about 5 at best, knew how to provide basic customer service!!

So, if you have to send anything in for service, unless it is very straight-forward, add several hours of your wasted time while calculating the total cost of the product.
