For nice Pavilion dv9000t series, HP shows that it continues to take entertainment seriously when designing its laptops like HP pavilion dv8000, HP pavilion dv4. The latest iteration of the desktop replacement incorporates a bevy of high-end components, such as a Available with Mobile AM discrete Nvidia graphics, and 17" WXGA+ (1440 x 900) Brightview standard, into Integrated wireless support for 802.11 a/b/g Wireless LAN.
Specifications are listed as follows?
1. Screen: 17" WXGA+ (1440 x 900) Brightview standard. Optional WXGA+ Ultra Brightview or WSXGA+ (1680 x 1050) Brightview display.

4.Card Reader: 5-in-1 digital media card reader

6. ExpressCard 54 slot
7. Wireless: The pavilion dv9000t has two options for wireless. Both come with the Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG card, but one is with Bluetooth and the other is without. I chose the option with Bluetooth so that I could connect with my phone and pda. The card offers a strong connection to any network remotely close to me. I can pick up signals from neighbors 2-3 houses away from me. This is definitely a card to have when looking for a laptop with reliable wireless.
8. Dual hard disk drive option with combined capacity up to 240GB
9. Battery: an 8-cell Lithium-Ion pavilion dv9000 Battery battery. The laptop averages about 3 hours of battery life with low performance usage and a dim screen, an amazing number for a laptop this big. With more demanding usage however, it gets around 2 hours.
10.Weight: Starting as low as 7.8 lbs

13. Dual stereo headphone jacks — one with high-definition audio support (S/PDIF capable)
14. Optional HP webcam with integrated dual stereo microphones.
The operating system I chose for my system was Windows Media Center Edition. In essence, it is Windows Home with more multimedia options. I have no need for pro and the features included on MCE are pretty neat, especially for a media fanatic like myself. There is a Recovery Partition that is located on your primary hard drive for any recovery woes. When you first boot up it asks you to burn this partition onto CD/DVD. I opted for the Recovery Discs however, just in case. The system was loaded up with Bloatware when I received it, and among the bountiful programs, none of them were useful to me. After cleaning up all of the unwanted programs and cleaning my registry however, I had a near clean install.
Conclusion:
The HP dv9000 series are rather a gorgeous desktop replacement machine with large laptop battery and high features better than any seris. It is absolutely one of the best buys in the laptop markets, and I would highly recommend it to any users who are looking for a 17" laptop.
