Amazon.com Product Description:
Built for today's multimedia-savvy, always on-the-go computer user, the
entertainment-centric HP Pavilion dv2740se Special Edition notebook PC
provides quick access to your digital audio and video library wherever
you roam. Weighing in at 5.25 pounds, it features the HP exclusive
high-gloss, organic Verve imprint finish, which flows freely across the
top cover then bursts across the palm rest area. A significant change
in color appears as well, with a rich bronze top cover carrying through
to the palm rest area to morph into golden copper shades then fade to
deep black near the touch-sensitive media control panel. It offers a
widescreen, BrightView 14.1-inch display, which provides improved
viewing in direct sunlight. Control settings for audio and video
playback from up to 10 feet away with the included HP remote, then
store it conveniently in the PC card slot. Enjoy movies or music in
seconds with the external DVD or music buttons to launch HP QuickPlay
(which bypasses the boot process).
Optimized for mobile
performance, it's powered by the 2.1 GHz AMD Turion 64 X2 TL-62
dual-core processor, which offers 64-bit computing capability and
higher throughput for simultaneous computing tasks. Other features
include an extra-large 250 GB hard drive, 3 GB of installed RAM (4 GB
maximum), 54g Wi-Fi LAN (802.11b/g), multi-format/dual-layer
LightScribe DVD drive (which can also burn CDs), Nvidia GeForce Go
7150M video card with up to 1071 MB of total available video memory,
multi-format memory card reader, and integrated Webcam for easy video
conferencing.
It comes preinstalled with Microsoft Windows
Vista Home Premium, which includes all of the Windows Media Center
capabilities for turning your PC into an all-in-one home entertainment
center. In addition to easily playing your DVD movies and managing your
digital audio library, you'll be able to record and watch your favorite
TV shows (even HDTV). Vista also integrates new search tools throughout
the operating system, includes new parental control features, and
offers new tools that can warn you of impending hardware failures.
The Basics
- Processor:
The 2.1 GHz AMD Turion 64 X2 TL-62 processor offers a dual-core
architecture, which delivers additional computing resources to help
expand your PC's capabilities by providing higher throughput and
simultaneous computing--increasing your performance by up to 80
percent. You'll be able to perform multiple tasks such as digital
rendering and gaming all while running virus scan or other background
tasks seamlessly thanks to the innovative Direct Connect Architecture.
And it's designed to handle simultaneous 32- and 64-bit computing with
no degradation in performance. You'll enjoy long battery life thanks to
the AMD PowerNow! power management technology, which delivers
performance on demand and can extend system battery life up to 65
percent. And the AMD Digital Media XPress technology delivers stellar
multimedia performance and playback on digital entertainment such as
games, streaming video and audio, DVDs, and music.
Each
processing core has a 512 KB L2 cache (for a 1 MB total), and this
processor can deliver up to a 1600 MHz system bus for lightning quick
computing reflexes. (An L2, or secondary, cache temporarily stores
data; and a larger L2 cache can help speed up your system's
performance. The FSB carries data between the CPU and RAM, and a faster
front-side bus will deliver better overall performance.)
- Hard Drive:
The 250 GB Serial ATA hard drive is more than double the average size
for notebook PCs, and it offers a fast 5400 RPM disk speed--an
improvement over other notebooks with extra-large hard drives. It
provides more than enough capacity for storing documents, digital media
files, and video editing software. This SATA hard drive also quickens
the pace with a higher speed transfer of data--akin to FireWire and USB
2.0.
- Memory: This notebook comes installed
with 3 GB of RAM (DDR2), which helps boost the amount of available
video RAM that's shared with this notebook's video card. It has a 4 GB
RAM capacity.
- DVD/CD Drive: This multiformat
DVD/CD drive is compatible with writing both DVD+ and DVD- disc formats
as well as dual-layer (DL) DVD+/-R discs, which can store up to 8.5 GB
of data. It features 4x DVD-R DL Write Once, 2.4x DVD+R DL Write Once,
8x DVD+R, 4x DVD+RW, 8x DVD-R, 4x DVD-RW, 16x DVD-ROM, 40x CD-R, 24x
CD-RW, and 40x CD-ROM speeds.
This LightScribe DVD±RW drive
lets you laser-etch silkscreen quality text and images on to CDs and
DVDs . Your software, PC and discs work together for a no-hassle way to
burn just the labels you want. After you burn content, just flip the
disc over, reinsert and burn your label--anything from a simple title
to a full-disc work of art.
- Keyboard & Mouse:
This notebook has a 101-key keyboard and a touchpad with on/off button
and dedicated vertical/horizontal Scroll Up/Down pad. It also includes
two quick-launch buttons (HP QuickPlay Music and DVD).
Screen, Video & Audio
While this notebook is actually as wide as standard 15-inch displays,
the high-definition, widescreen 14.1-inch display (1280 x 800-pixel
resolution) has the same form factor as a 12-inch screen--taking up
less space on your desk. Video is powered by the integrated Nvidia
GeForce Go 7150M graphics/video card, which provides up to 1071 MB of
total graphics memory as allocated by Windows Vista. It features
NVidia's PureVideo technology--which provides great picture clarity,
smooth video, accurate color, and precise image scaling for video
content--and full support for Microsoft DirectX 9.0 for stunningly
realistic cinematic effects for all DirectX-compatible 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
This notebook has an integrated 54g wireless LAN that's fully
compatible with 802.11b/g wireless networks. It also includes a
next-generation ExpressCard 54/34 card slot (replacing the 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 very good offering of connectivity
options, which includes both super-fast USB 2.0 and FireWire:
- 3 USB 2.0 ports for connecting a wide range of peripherals--from digital cameras to MP3 players
- 1 FireWire (also known as IEEE 1394 or i.Link) port for connecting digital video camcorders and other peripherals
- Video out: 1 VGA monitor port and 1 S-Video port for connecting to a TV or projector
- 1 ExpressCard/54 slot (also supports ExpressCard/34)
- 2 headphone jacks
- 1 microphone jack
- 1 Expansion Port 3 connector (for use with the HP xb3000 Expansion Base or the HP Notebook QuickDock)
- 1 IR receiver
- 5-in-1 memory card reader (Secure Digital, MultiMedia, Memory Stick, Memory Stick PRO, xD Picture Card)
- 10/100 Ethernet
- 56K modem (V.90)
Operating System

audio library. You can also use Windows Media Center to record and

than ever to share files between other PCs in your household and to
manage your laptop computer settings to more securely connect via
Wi-Fi.

tools and technologies to help protect you whether you are browsing the
