It includes Intel's 4965 AGN wireless LAN, which will connect to draft 802.11n routers and offers compatibility with 802.11a/b/g networks as well. This notebook also features a 250 GB hard drive, 2 GB of installed RAM (4 GB maximum), 8x multi-format/dual-layer DVD+/-RW drive (which also burns CDs), ExpressCard slot, and Intel GMA X3100 video/graphics card with up to 384 MB of shared video memory.

The Basics

Screen, Video & Audio
You'll enjoy razor-sharp graphics and widescreen movies with the 15.4-inch WXGA high-definition screen, which displays an 18 percent larger picture than standard 15-inch screens and offers up to an 18 percent improvement in contrast ratio. It has a widescreen resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels--perfect for watching DVD movies the way they were meant to be seen. Video is powered by the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100, which uses shared video memory (up to 384 MB allocated from the system memory) and provides Windows Vista Aero interface support and enhanced 3-D graphics performance--delivering over 2x scores on 3-DMark 06. Intel Clear Video Technology provides outstanding video playback with sharper image quality, increased clarity, and customizable color controls.

It's also backward compatible with 802.11b/g networks (commonly found in home routers and Wi-Fi hotspots) as well as 802.11a networks (which has a higher throughput, but more limited range--great for closed office environments).

It also includes a next-generation ExpressCard 54/34 card slot (though no standard PCMCIA slot), which lets you take advantage of thinner, faster, and lighter expansion cards for even more advanced wireless, networking, storage, and security features. You get a good offering of connectivity options:

5 out of 5 stars Great buy!.......2008-01-01

I looked at several laptops and then got this one. It is great. Everything that I wanted!

2 out of 5 stars ought to be very good but..........2007-12-30

I bought an HP Pavilion DV6662SE witn all the features advertised by Amazon. I bought it together with the Pergus case. Both arrived well.
I turned on the laptop...beautiful it worked!!! so nice so...new!!! I was thrilled!!! But oh taugh luck... half of the software supposely advertised wouldn't work; Th HP Total Care Advisor wasn't properly installed, I contacted the HP support center and they told me that unfortunately there wasn't any possibility to download the program or worse no way to buy it; so I had to download it from one of those "unofficial freeware site" and fortunately IT DID WORK!!! but not thank to Amazone or HP... ·#2... the buit-in webcam never work I know I need a software or driver for it from HP, but teir help wouldn't work and I'm still struggleling to make it fuctional...#3, the Wi Fi conncection... it came disable from the box and for one reason or another I cound't make it work, even with the very kind help of the HP guy who was on online help support trying to tell me what to do. I'm not a computer wiz' but I work with them all the time.
In the laptop it self, there is no enough print information , like a good instruction manual, the HTML help in the machine not always correspond with what you have in your hands. In a nut shell: this laptop should be a hell of a good machine, even with the nightmare of Window Vista Home Premium... (It suks!!!)but people from Amazon should have technitians to make sure that the product they advertise and sell are in 100% working conditions ( You can't returned it IF you Oponed the box !!!and how in the world are you going to guess that the software or your product is not working if you don't open the box???) Product(Lap Top): Could be very nice if it is well configurated. Amazon: Don't buy expensive stuff if you cannot touch it, and tried. Once your purchase is in your hands... you're on your own...

4 out of 5 stars Great Machine at a Great price.......2007-12-28

I purchased this machine after much research in the under $1000 category, for my new college student. The power, storage, quality and detail features at this price point are unmatched. I found few others with 4gb ram expansion possibilities and a 250gb HDD. Screen resolution is excellent. Overall build and feel is superior. The end user likes the quiet keyboard.
The only real negative is Windows Vista. While not slow at all, Vista has lots of unnecessary stuff that it decides for you. If this machine had XP on it, it would be amazing....

Overall very satisfied and recommend it.

4 out of 5 stars Nice laptop for the price.......2007-12-28

This is a nice looking and complete enterteinment notebook for the price. Just a little slow sometimes but this is because the Windows Vista and the short RAM memory that comes from the factory. I recommend to expand it to 4 GB (maximum) so you can feel the difference on the speed. The computer sometimes get frozen and I need to re-start it. According to another user, this problem can be fixed by updating BIOS versions. I still recommend this computer just in case your budget is low.

5 out of 5 stars awesome.......2007-12-28

Simply the best bang for the buck. Centrino duo processor is blazing fast, speakers are pretty decent, but the case and construction are its distinction. To see this laptop is to love it, it looks sleek and glossy. It also includes a memory card reader built in as well as a super cool remote so you can view slideshows, movies, etc on a Tv or monitor without being right upto the laptop. Also has built in webcam and mic for home movie making for Youtube or anything. Widescreen is crystal clear, you wouldn't believe the difference in things from photos to even mundane webpages. Another good feature of the product is how cool it remains during operation, and without the use of loud exhaust fans. If you were shopping an Apple for its design, this PC is definitely worth a look. HP must have been crazy when they packed all this technology into such a sleek design at such an attractive price.

5 out of 5 stars Great buy!.......2008-01-01

I looked at several laptops and then got this one. It is great. Everything that I wanted!

2 out of 5 stars ought to be very good but..........2007-12-30

I bought an HP Pavilion DV6662SE witn all the features advertised by Amazon. I bought it together with the Pergus case. Both arrived well.
I turned on the laptop...beautiful it worked!!! so nice so...new!!! I was thrilled!!! But oh taugh luck... half of the software supposely advertised wouldn't work; Th HP Total Care Advisor wasn't properly installed, I contacted the HP support center and they told me that unfortunately there wasn't any possibility to download the program or worse no way to buy it; so I had to download it from one of those "unofficial freeware site" and fortunately IT DID WORK!!! but not thank to Amazone or HP... ·#2... the buit-in webcam never work I know I need a software or driver for it from HP, but teir help wouldn't work and I'm still struggleling to make it fuctional...#3, the Wi Fi conncection... it came disable from the box and for one reason or another I cound't make it work, even with the very kind help of the HP guy who was on online help support trying to tell me what to do. I'm not a computer wiz' but I work with them all the time.
In the laptop it self, there is no enough print information , like a good instruction manual, the HTML help in the machine not always correspond with what you have in your hands. In a nut shell: this laptop should be a hell of a good machine, even with the nightmare of Window Vista Home Premium... (It suks!!!)but people from Amazon should have technitians to make sure that the product they advertise and sell are in 100% working conditions ( You can't returned it IF you Oponed the box !!!and how in the world are you going to guess that the software or your product is not working if you don't open the box???) Product(Lap Top): Could be very nice if it is well configurated. Amazon: Don't buy expensive stuff if you cannot touch it, and tried. Once your purchase is in your hands... you're on your own...

4 out of 5 stars Great Machine at a Great price.......2007-12-28

I purchased this machine after much research in the under $1000 category, for my new college student. The power, storage, quality and detail features at this price point are unmatched. I found few others with 4gb ram expansion possibilities and a 250gb HDD. Screen resolution is excellent. Overall build and feel is superior. The end user likes the quiet keyboard.
The only real negative is Windows Vista. While not slow at all, Vista has lots of unnecessary stuff that it decides for you. If this machine had XP on it, it would be amazing....

Overall very satisfied and recommend it.

4 out of 5 stars Nice laptop for the price.......2007-12-28

This is a nice looking and complete enterteinment notebook for the price. Just a little slow sometimes but this is because the Windows Vista and the short RAM memory that comes from the factory. I recommend to expand it to 4 GB (maximum) so you can feel the difference on the speed. The computer sometimes get frozen and I need to re-start it. According to another user, this problem can be fixed by updating BIOS versions. I still recommend this computer just in case your budget is low.

5 out of 5 stars awesome.......2007-12-28

Simply the best bang for the buck. Centrino duo processor is blazing fast, speakers are pretty decent, but the case and construction are its distinction. To see this laptop is to love it, it looks sleek and glossy. It also includes a memory card reader built in as well as a super cool remote so you can view slideshows, movies, etc on a Tv or monitor without being right upto the laptop. Also has built in webcam and mic for home movie making for Youtube or anything. Widescreen is crystal clear, you wouldn't believe the difference in things from photos to even mundane webpages. Another good feature of the product is how cool it remains during operation, and without the use of loud exhaust fans. If you were shopping an Apple for its design, this PC is definitely worth a look. HP must have been crazy when they packed all this technology into such a sleek design at such an attractive price.

The Basics

Screen, Video & Audio
You'll enjoy razor-sharp graphics and widescreen movies with the 15.4-inch WXGA high-definition screen, which displays an 18 percent larger picture than standard 15-inch screens and offers up to an 18 percent improvement in contrast ratio. It has a widescreen resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels--perfect for watching DVD movies the way they were meant to be seen. Video is powered by the NVidia GeForce 8400M graphics card, which provides up to 895 MB of available RAM/video memory (128 MB dedicated video RAM) for unmatched HD video performance on a notebook PC. With support for Microsoft DirectX 10 Shader Model 4.0 and High Dynamic-Range Lighting (HDR), the 8400M lets you rip through all of today's most advanced and cutting-edge games and applications.

The Altec Lansing speakers provide exceptional sound, and a pair of stereo earbud headphones with volume controls is included. You'll be able to privately share enjoyment of multimedia with a friend via the dual headphone jacks.

Networking, Connectivity & Expansion
