Summary: Great, especially for students
Comment: Pros:
for a tablet it's cheap
lots of memory
fast
makes school work easier
Cons:
a little thick
can get hot if your on high performance power setting
heat vent is aimed at you in tablet mode
I'm a college student and I've been using this to take notes in class and i love it. it has actually helped my grades and makes studying easier and faster. This not for gamers and if you like walking around holding your notebook as you use it then it's not for you. But if your smart and you realize that you remember things better when you write them down and want the added ability to back up all of your school work instantly then this is for you. It does have some faults but if your not very nitpicky about your computers like most of the people who wrote reviews on this then get it!

Summary: Defective motherboards
Comment: The HP PC's are TRASH in my opinion. I bought the DV6226US in March 2007, and my System Board fried just 7-1/2 months later. They replaced it, and 8 months later if fried again - and HP wouldn't cover it. With the excessive heat no wonder! A system board crashing is rare but 2 boards in 16 months is nothing but defective product - pure and simple. DONT BUY THIS PRODUCT

Summary: just ok
Comment: The holder for the light pen broke on the first day. It only let the pen be inserted part of the way so it would stick out over 1 inch. Calling the HP service number was of little help because they wanted me to send the computer back to them for service which would take at least 2 weeks. So I decided just to live with the pen sticking half way out of the holder. Other than that the computer is ok but the monitor is small and windows vista slows it down.

Summary: Watch out for the memory!!!
Comment: Windows Vista requires 2GB RAM MINIMUM to run. To run other applications you will need at least 3GB RAM. I had mistakenly gotten a 2GB model and at times it takes 45 seconds just to send soemthing to the recycle bin or else a reboot is required. Painfully SLOW!!!
Also, the tablet doesn't work properly. There is a distinct discrepancy between the location you place the pen and the location the computer recognizes. I gave up on the tablet aspect of my laptop. This laptop also runs really hot. The longer you use, the higher the temperature. The higher the temperature, the slower the laptop. Running it for over three hours without a fan blowing on it is out of the question. The only nice things nice about it are the included games (which you can't uninstall) and the 12.1" size (so light!).
Think I'll upgrade to a Sony. My Sony desktop has been quite reliable for the last 5 years and still running strong. Haha, in fact, it's faster at running graphics applications than the HP, especially after the HP heats up.

Summary: Wish i had read this before i bought it....
Comment: This computer is really slow... My 2.0 ghz run a lot faster...
For some reason I can not use wireless to conect, and when i can is a an extremely slow speed! After contacting HP service for over 2 hours is still the same...
Due to the high requirements of windows vista, the computer video is really slow, and often crashes.
I wish i didnt buy this computer...
