HP recommends Windows

1 HD content required to view HD images.

2 MIL-STD-810G testing was not intended to demonstrate fitness for U.S. Department of Defense contracts or for military use. Test results are not a guarantee of future

performance under these test conditions.

3 Dual/Quad Core is a new technology designed to improve performance of certain software products. Not all customers or software applications will necessarily benefit from

use of this technology. 64-bit computing on Intel architecture requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, operating system, device drivers and applications

enabled for Intel 64 architecture. Processors will not operate (including 32-bit operation) without an Intel 64 architecture-enabled BIOS. Performance will vary depending on

your hardware and software configurations. Intel’s numbering is not a measurement of higher performance.

4 Some functionality of Intel vPro, such as Intel Active management technology and Intel Virtualization technology, requires additional third-party software in order to run.

Availability of future “virtual appliances” applications for vPro technologies is dependent on third-party software providers. Compatibility with future “virtual appliances,”

Microsoft Windows Vista, and Windows 7 operating systems is yet to be determined.

5 Sold separately or purchased as an optional feature.

6 Requires AMD discrete graphics configuration.

7 HP QuickWeb is accessible when the notebook is off in Windows Vista- or Windows 7-based systems. Internet access is required. Timing may vary depending on the system

configuration. To enable the feature following the removal of the battery, reboot the notebook prior to subsequent use.

8 HP Power Assistant enhances management of the system energy requirements and enables users to take control of their power consumption for a reduced impact on the

environment. Power calculations and cost calculations are estimates. Results will vary based on variables, which include information provided by the user, time PC is in

different power states (on, standby, hibernate, off), time PC is on battery or AC, hardware configuration, variable electricity rates, and utilities provider. HP advises customers

to use information reported by HP Power Assistant for reference only and to validate impact in their environment. Environmental calculations were based on U.S. EPA eGrid

2007 data found at

www.epa.gov/egrid/. Regional results will vary. Microsoft Windows required.

9 Systems may require upgraded and/or separately purchased hardware to take full advantage of Windows 7 functionality. Not all features are available in all editions of

Windows 7. See

www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/ for details.

10 Certain Windows Vista product features require advanced or additional hardware. See

www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/getready/hardwarereqs.mspx and

www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/getready/capable.mspx for details. Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor can help you determine which features of Windows Vista will run on

your computer. To download the tool, visit www.windowsvista.com/upgradeadvisor.

11 Intel

Turbo Boost 2.0 technology requires a PC with a processor with Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 capability. Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 performance varies depending on hardware,

software, and overall system configuration. See

www.intel.com/technology/turboboost for more information.

12 Maximized dual-channel performance requires SODIMMs of the same size and speed in both memory slots.

13 Above 3 GB, all memory may not be available due to system resource requirements.

14 For hard drives, GB = 1 billion bytes. Actual formatted capacity is less. Up to 15 GB of memory is reserved for system recovery software.

15 Microsoft Windows required.

16 As Blu-ray contains new technologies, certain discs, digital connections, compatibility and/or performance issues may arise, and do not constitute defects in the product.

Flawless playback on all systems is not guaranteed. In order for some Blu-ray titles to play, they may require a DVI or HDMI digital connection and your display may require

HDCP support. This HD-DVD drive does not support writing to ultra-high speed CDRW media (16X to 32X advertised performance). HD-DVD movies cannot be played on this

Blu-ray player. Actual speeds may vary. Don’t copy copyright-protected materials. Double Layer media compatibility will widely vary with some home DVD players and DVD-

ROM drives.

17 Double-layer discs can store more data than single layer discs. However, double-layer discs burned with this drive may not be compatible with many existing single-layer DVD

drives and players. LightScribe media required and sold separately. LightScribe creates a monochrome image. Note that DVD-RAM cannot read or write to 2.6 GB single-

sided/5.2 GB double-sided—version 1.0 media. Don’t copy copyright-protected materials.

19 Wireless use requires separately purchased service contract. Check with local service provider for coverage area and availability in your area. Limited to mobile network

operator coverage areas. Separately purchased mobile network operator service is required.

20 Gobi mobile broadband use requires separately purchased service contracts. Check with service provider for coverage and availability in your area. Connection speeds will

vary due to location, environment, network conditions, and other factors.
