Customer Rating: Summary: Great Comment: Laptop was a gift for parents.
Great value for dollar - everything needed for a casual user.
By the way - they loved it! Customer Rating: Summary: satisfied customer Comment: I am satisfied with product. I obtained the recommendations from Consumer Reports and noted this particular HP product was one of the "best buy" recommendations just below the pricier products also recommended. You will find less space for the cord for 110 voltage hookup in your travel pack since the 17 inch takes up all the space inside the usual sized/shaped carrier. The larger-sized screen also provides a much more comfortable-sized keyboard to use with the device. The cordless mouse purchased with device made the package as comfortable as a home model. Customer Rating: Summary: HP G70-460US Computer Review Comment: Bought this computer since my previous laptop is now about 6 years old and only has a 30g hard drive that is not only obsolete, but slow too. Got a super price and rebate on this computer so the combo was affordable. The computer starts up pretty quickly for running Vista and has all the features and attributes I want. Large clear screen and full keyboard. I immediatly spent the 20% accessory discount that came with the unit for a bigger capacity battery. Now I use the original as the "back-up" power source while on travel. Unfortunatly some of the software it comes with (like Home Office 2007) expires after 30 days and you have to shell out $[...] to keep it up and running. Same thing with other "trial" software that's installed. The processor is fast and runs internet applications very quickly. This was truly a turn on and go computer. I really have nothing bad to say about it other than it's a little bit heavy. But it's a 17 inch laptop and it should weigh more than my privious 15 inch unit. If your contemplating a new laptop, this should be one on your short list.
Bob Customer Rating: Summary: Most Excellent Comment: Excellent laptop, everything is wonderful... well, except that it comes with Vista, which sucks horribly, but, oh well, can't blame HP for that. Wish wish WISH XP was an option!! But it's not on any new laptop, so...
For the price, this is the BEST laptop choice available at the time of my purchase!! I checked out many, many alternates and I'm very happy with this choice :)

Customer Rating: Summary: good points,bad points Comment: while this laptop didnt cost anywhere near the junk accer cost me 3 years ago,there are some things i dont like.mainly the need to use 2 keys to adjust volume.secondly so far the pic quality doesnt look as good as a old beat up 3 year old laptop.not to mention a lot of work to adjust bright,contrast,etc.........but for the money...its a heck of a deal.i hope i can still say that down the road a few years as HP IS A TERRIBLE COMPANY FOR SERVICE.my rating for the model hp g70-460us is a 7.5.TERRY LINTON,BULLHEAD CITY,AZ
