This is an inexpensive laptop, and not a bad value. It is all about expectations for what this computer can and cannot do.

As an alternative to a netbook, this computer is not bad. The positives versus a netbook. Full size keyboard and a number pad. Really nice big screen, actually a gorgeous screen. A built in optical drive. HDMI output for connection to a television. And a really nice track pad. A much faster processor. Easy hard drive and memory upgrades. The negatives compared to a netbook. Battery life, netbooks will run on battery power a lot longer than 3 hours. Weight and size, this is way heavier than a netbook. Portability.

On the overall positive side, this laptop will do most standard things a person wants to do with a computer, do email, connect to the internet, run Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, and Powerpoint run perfectly well), edit still pictures, and watch movies. It's a general purpose machine. It will not edit movies or play games. In the... Read more

I bought this on "Black Friday" but missed out on the $197 deal. I got it for $299, But still, I think I got a good deal. Amazon shipped it in 3 days and during the mean time, I read reviews where people said there wasn't any webcam. I've never had one and even though that would have been a great plus, I'm still happy with the computer. Hd quality screen, Windows 7 os, numeric keyboard. I was up and running in about an hour after copying my files from my external hd. I'm happy. I'm in school and keep most of my work work on a flash drive, so the size of the hd doesn't bother me to much.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Value for a Laptop, December 1, 2009

This review is from: HP G60-501NR 15.6-Inch Black Laptop - Up to 3.75 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Home Premium) (Personal Computers)
Pros:
Value/Price when purchased on Sale
Windows 7 is a nice improvement
Reasonable quality given price
Full Keyboard with Number Pad

Cons:
Weight (6 lbs 5 oz or so with the battery)
Size for screen resolution
Only a single core processor

Bottom Line: This is a superb value in a PC laptop. The machine makes a great Internet computer or any other application that doesn't require a lot of processing power. The computer is very large and heavy given the specifications (my nearly 2 year old MacBook is nearly 1 and a half pounds lighter for better specifications with similar screen resolution, but it also cost significantly more).

My main use for the computer will be to take it with me on photo shoots and temporarily backup pictures to the hard drive using the built in SD card reader and to review pictures as necessary. I will also use it as an Internet computer. This computer will work excellent for my needs and at a... Read more
