My old man decided to take the laptop offer that Ricky gave him (through me). Therefore now, I'm back to using my desktop computer. I miss having the option of going on the laptop when my sister is on my main computer - but I have a new goal.

It is to own an HP notebook that is exactly like My Ricky's. One of the HP dv1000 series.

Oh man!!! Who would not love this?!



The HP dv1000 at a certain distance.


Top view of the keyboard ad touchpad.


Closed front and quarter view.


Bottom view with and without the 6-cell battery.
The 6-cell battery is the standard for this unit. I believe it averages about 3 hours of life per charge. The 6-cell doubles the life but sticks out the bottom quite a bit. It makes it look awkward but it helps in propping the notebook at a more comfortable angle and exposing the exhaust fan a bit better.


The dv1000 is a bit "busy" with all of its white text to describe every button, port and feature. The keyboard area features blue back-lighting for the media control, power and wireless buttons (situated just above the keyboard). The blue back-lighting would be very helpful when using the unit in a dark area. The media control buttons are situated above the standard keyboard and offer easy access to functions such as Play, Stop, Pause, Rew, Fwd, chapter skip, volume, mute, etc. There is a utility where you can configure these buttons to control just about any function of any program. Quite cool!


The side panels of the dv1000 The DV1000 includes a robust array of I/O ports. The placement of the 3 usb ports seem well thought out. Also included are Firewire, S-Video out, pc-card, ethernet, phone, VGA, productivity port and the 6-in-1 media adapter.


The remote control and the remote control slot on the dv1000
The IR handy remote, which stores away in the pc card slot, would be very useful to me. It has pretty much every control needed for multimedia use. On one of the reviews I've read on this unti, it says that it seems to have a very good range (at least 15ft) and can even power the unit on/off. However, this is something that MyRicky hasn't mentioned to me yet. I am not sure if it actually comes with the unit itself or you would have to buy this separately.

I really don't know if Ricky would be able to find me an HP dv1000 with a good price. Aside from it features, another thing I like most about it is that MyRicky and I would have the same notebook. Wahoo!

(I am so sleepy now. I shall come back to add the smileys to make this blog more expressive. Please forgive me.)
