This is the worst computer I have ever owned. I got it on sale at Wal-mart for $500, and thought I got a good deal. Wrong! From the first time I hooked it up, it has run slowly. It takes forever for the desktop to load up. The dvd rom randomly opens itself during shutdown, which may not be discovered for a day. It constantly updates, making it even slower, and most of the updates are useless to me. As for getting on the internet, only try that if you have all day. Even with dsl, it can take as long as 5 minutes to load the homepage. For a while, I thought mine was just screwed up, but then I found out my step-father has the same problems with his slimline. Neither of us will buy an hp again.

Great Computer. Outstanding HP Technical Support July 28, 2008
Dalmo Yassuda Maeda (Brazil)
This is my firts HP and I'm happy how slim and compact it is, not to say about the low noise. The first boot, however, took long minutes before the Vista could login. And everytime I tried to boot, use the Blu-Ray drive and even some websites would halt the system for long 2 minutes. After serveral e-mails exchanged with HP Technical Support, I finally found out that the Blu-Ray drive had something wrong. I tried to unplug it and everything came smooth. HP then replaced my defective Blu-Ray drive and now the PC is wonderful. And after the experience I had with HP customer support, I have no doubt my next PC will be an HP again.
My only complaint is the fact HP will not give full warranty for overseas, as this specific product is not supported by HP support in my country. I understand that, but the thing is HP in my country would not even hear my problem (which was initially the non-ability to create the Recovery Discs, which there is nothing related to the hardware, but with the software). HP in the US, however, understood completely the fact that I lived overseas and tried their best to match my schedule while I was back to the US.
 If only it were very very quiet ... July 25, 2008

I had to send it back. I didn't really want to because I loved the form factor and the specs. The blu-ray DVD alone means you saved $400 for a standalone blu-ray DVD player, and the built in memory and 500 gigs hard drive are fabulous. However, went I installed in the bedroom, it had a fan hum that was too loud for that use. It would have been okay in an office or a living room, it wasn't that loud, but you can't have that steady hum in the bedroom where you sleep. When everything else was quiet, we heard it way too much.

I believe you will be pleased with the size and performance of this PC. Set up was easy, quick and efficient. Vista runs smoothly and your display is enhanced. The price can't be beat.
