Cheap HP G71-340US 17.3-Inch Black/Silver Laptop - Up To 4 Hours Of Battery Life (Windows 7 Home Premium)
HP G71-340US is
better than my G70 but not by much. The 16:9 screen is much shorter
than the G70 widescreen,making it harder to read pages online-lots of
scrolling. My biggest complaint is the volume. I went into every
possible menu to max the vol and nothing helped. The G70 blasts it out
of the water on sound. The DVD tray is very flimsy, it wouldn't burn a
DVD-I tried several brands and types. It tried-burned maybe half a disc
and wasted 10 discs. I was trying to burn their recommended recovery
disc set off this notebook. I gave up and paid the $14 for the DVDs.
The tray is moulded close to the bottom and hangs if you don't keep it
near the edge of your desk or raised on that end. The power adpt cord
sticks straight out the rear side and would be easy to mangle if you're
not careful moving it. I'm returning it because Win7 won't work with
any of my HP printers and scanners and they state on their website that
they aren't going to write new drivers. These notebooks are identical
in quality and appearance. The
HP G71-340US is ,1 Ghz faster and 1 GB more
memory plus .3 larger screen. Not a huge difference by any means. I did
exhaust tech support on the hardware issue and he recommended I buy new
printers and scanners. NOT I'll stick with Vista untill they write more
drivers, maybe they'll have one of mine in a few ..... For the money
it's a good machine but you better have Win7 approved hardware. Most of
the drivers out now for Win7 are stripped of their features and use
only basic functions. I wouldn't abandon Vista just yet.
