This is an excellent laptop as well as a very good value. I did much research on the web and on foot.

I found nothing else in stores or online that was as much computer with equal price. I would recommend

this laptop to anyone on a tight budget. Service and prompt shipping made the deal even better.

I must beg to differ from the positive reviews given so far. Yes, the screen is bright and 16:9 (HDTV aspect ratio); yes, the computer wakes up and works quickly; but basic flaws in the physical layout of the machine make using it often a huge headache.

The worst element of the design is the trackpad. Large trackpads are nice--but the reason Apple's giant trackpads work well is that they are smart--they know the difference between an intentional finger swipe and the accidental touch of a palm. Even after six weeks of using this laptop, I still find myself accidentally brushing the trackpad with the meaty part of my thumbs while typing--and moving the cursor halfway across the screen. All of a sudden, I find myself typing 30 lines further down my email, or worse, the cursor lands on a navigation button and directs me away from the website I was typing on, resulting in me losing my work. Another major flaw of the trackpad is that rather than give a true left and right click button, HP chose to put one long plastic strip across both buttons, which is supported from underneath in the center. You cannot press the middle, and the further you get from center, the easier it is to click. This means that the natural spot to left-click is nearly four inches away from the natural spot to right-click. This makes all sorts of tasks like cutting and pasting, renaming folders, et cetera, far more awkward than they need be.

The keyboard is also awkward, with a strip of audio control buttons to the left of tab, caps lock and shift. This results in many accidental presses of Caps lock. Also, the speakers are extremely quiet, even at maximum volume. Not great if you want to use it as the multimedia machine it otherwise could be.

Bottom line: if you have $400 to spend on a laptop, you can do a lot better than the HP 620.

Honest reviews on HP 620 WZ294UT 15.6" Notebook (2.3 GHz Intel Pentium Dual-Core

I bought this laptop for temporary use when my Thinkpad screen broke and I was waiting to get a replacement screen. I must say for its price, this laptop is a steal. It is fast, strong and works well. It's doesn't have a glamorous design, but who cares, as long as it woks well, I'm ok with it. So far, I haven't had any problems. The display is wonderful, much better than my thinkpad. The keyborad design is a little bit flat but its poses no problems once you get used to it. The trackpad is a little bit large and doesn't distinguish between the left and right click buttons but you can solve that problem by the use of a wireless mouse. To summarize: it offers value for money, fast processing, and if you can get beyond the keyboard and trackpad design, it is the best laptop you can get for a $350 to $400 price range.
