I have an HP Pavilion dv4275nr. A wonderful solution for Linux. The 100 gig hard drive was what sold me on it. I was able to shrink Windows and add a couple versions of Linux. Still have room for videos, and trial software. A few minor problems. When I installed a newer upgraded version of Mephis (from 2.4.29 to 2.6.10) the battery charge indicator no longer appears. Some sort of configuration change I guess. So, not a problem with the hardware since windows still shows battery charge. Also the new version of Mephis displays an error message concerning the touch-pad when I shutdown. The touch-pad works fine so I just ignore the message. I've had no other problems and recommend the HP brand for Linux. ________________________________________________________________________ Try Juno Platinum for Free! Then, only $9.95/month!
