Re: Decent spec HP nc6000 Centrino laptop

Sorry DCA - My comments were uncalled for - My frustration with this
hardware is obviously effecting my judgement and spilling outside of work -
I apologise. Still, If you do go down the eBay route, I may have made you
£20+ more! Good luck, and next time, I'll keep my comments to myself.

Sorry to be a killjoy, but having rolled out £1,000+ of these machines
during the last 18 months, they are by far the worse laptop HP have
produced in the last 5 years. Numerous HDD, keyboard, System board, and
video failures have plagued us. If you were selling its succesor, the
NC6220, then it'd be worth £450! Good luck though...

Hmm - well thanks for the leg-up; always appreciated. There's me thinking
it was an adverts forum rather than a feedback/discussion one. Still,
never mind - I guess I've been guilty of introducing 'that's not cheap'
into threads so perhaps PCKB syndrome.

Now the nx9010 was pants but I have owned this for some time and it is the
best laptop I've had - and it is under HP warranty until 2008 so
considerable peace of mind.
With this spec they seem to go on eBay from 'unknown' sellers for £470
upwards without the leather HP bag and docking station so - I thought it
was worth a try here (well not now - obviously)
