Introducing the new mobility high-end notebook from HP, the HP Pavilion DV6000 which is powered by Mobile AMD Turion 64 X2 dual-core processer running on Microsoft Windows XP Professional (optional Windows XP Home). It has one more choice of processor for you to choose, the Mobile AMD Sempron processor which is for the budget users. DV6000 boasts a 15.4-inch widescreen TFT LCD with HP BrightView technology. An optional graphic cards is added if you like: NVIDIA GeForce Go 7200, standard NVIDIA GeForce Go 6150 and NVIDIA nForce Go 430 chipset with AMD processors which I think is the most expensive among three. On the connectivity side, it has integrated wireless support for 802.11b/g, configurable 802.11a/b/g, Wireless LAN and Bluetooth technology, An IEEE 1394 (FireWire) port is added to support most of the future devices, three USB 2.0 ports can be found at the back of the notebook and ExpressCard/54 slot is located at the side. Watching movies on this notebook should be great with the integrated Altec Lansing stereo speakers. You can add-on a HP Pavilion WebCam and dual stereo headphone jacks if you have extra cash. It only weighs 6.5 lbs. DV6000 is now available on HPStore with the starting price of USD879.
