PLZ UR ADVICE ON THE BEST ONE IS NEEDED AND THE REASONS. THANKS.

if it were me, i sure would go for the second option,

well, i guess thats why it aint me but frankly speaking, the second option is cool, all the processors are both cool but the second has a better processor speed. It all depend on how much you want to spend and what you want the system for, but judging HP, all those listed system are "entertainment Consoles"

Inze

the first one, cause it has a 17" screen.but it will be heavy. what you need to confirm is the video card. is it nvidia , ati or ( ) intel. and how many mb of video memory.

dont go near the sony - wtf do i want with a 13.3 inch monitor? .


i'm suprised that the system comes with 4gb of ram - most off the shelf laptops ship with 2gb of ram.

the big question is - what do you do? do you game? do you do 3D design? because if you dont u may be spending big money to watch dvds better watched on a televison. i should know- i gave a colleague specs for 2.0ghz, 17 inch, 2gb ram, 512mb nvidia card , hp pavilion - and what does the guy do with it - watch dvds. a complete 100% waste of money. the laptop's only function was oppressing peeps and watching movies.

i guess its up to him now

though the decision is up to you but what deternmines the one you are going to pick is "what did you want to use the computer for?", your pocket status? your mobility, your carrying power ( thinking of heaviness for the 17"

Check out all these and some other considerations before you make your decision. i think i help, but you can also call me on 08050602370, 08068611831 for more information i will be ready to help!

Wow. . .N200k for a pavilion? They aint even tablets nor do they have blu-ray .

@edgecution,

If u need a good laptop let me know bro. I will be shipping some to naija by next week. IF this laptop is for every day use Paying 200k to 220k is a waste of dough ma man, holla.

if u are still living in 1999 then welcome to your past life. All system spec above should be btw 145k - 160k. 4 sony vaio keep off

Get the Wednesday Guardian and u will know what am saying. N 4 those asking for ur dole, plz they will milk u unless u are willing to dole it out without checking the above newspaper

Did you get your laptop yet?.

I am sure you have already been provided very good advice to facilitate buying your laptop. For the benefit of anyone who may in the future read this thread, I wanted to add that I think that after zeroing in on a specific laptop, anyone looking to buy a laptop should always always do some of their own legwork/research to estimate what might be the retail value of any item they intend to purchase. You need this information to ensure you are not paying too high a price.

In your particular case those laptops are european models so I am not familiar with UK prices and sources. But it appears HP UK had one of them (#1) on sale at some point for 899 pounds.

www1.hp.com/wwpc/uk/en/ho/WF06b/21675-38187-38191-38191-38191-81140621-81582085.html">http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/uk/en/ho/WF06b/21675-38187-38191-38191-38191-81140621-81582085.html

I don't know what the excahnge rate is now to the GBP but 899 pounds converted to =N=206K approx using the current rate from XE.COM (1 GBP = 229.506 NGN ). This is already higher than the sale offer price you received for that laptop. Perhaps they were available at a much lower price earlier on?.

Anyhow, hope this helps someone else looking to buy.

peace,

Brume
