Laptop : HP Compaq V3010AU

Hi, today i would like to review the laptop that i just purchased from Lowyat Plaza, Kuala Lumpur.

As you all know the design of this laptop is very impressive with a profesional look. I also want to share the experienced by using this laptop at first sigh and technically with the hardware.

The V3010AU features AMD dual-core processors, the oustanding AMD Turion 64 x2 Mobile Technology for top-notch system performance when you're running several demanding applications. You'll also keep on going for longer: you get better battery life with AMD's PowerNow! technology.

The first i boot the laptop it sound "TUT" very loud. I thought its exploded or something. Fuhh. So in my understanding, "its me the lappie, welcome sir, the master, i will obey your rules". Hehehe .. ok enough.

The boot time extremly faster with a Windows XP Home Edition Pre-install by the sales person when i buy it. Its go smooth and no pending time to popup the windows interface. The screen look shine by the default spec of 14.1" WXGA Widescreen (1280x800). Ouch... its look like glass on the wall, eventough the Windows Vista RC1 is not yet on my lappie (laptop).

The most impresive look is when its "ON", the blue Led will shinning the laptop. Then i touch the keyboard, its very light, in black mode and the space for me to type anything quite 'handy'. The first thing when you touch and feel the laptop it make me remember to "Sword Fish Film". Oh ya, the hackers running the Multi Million dolar for entering the bank code in less than 5 minutes. yeah. i feel like that to now. hehehe.

In addition, you get latch-free closure, touch-technology media launch buttons, and an AC power port that lights. This notebook has a sophisticated black resin finish with an inlaid wave pattern and latch-free closure. And the most i can say here is its elegant, sleek and durable.

This laptop come with NVIDIA(R) GeForce(R) Go 6150 graphic card and here is some info about it. NVIDIA's(R) GeForce(R) Go 6150 graphics delivers ultra-realistic effects and stellar multimedia functionality for an incredible PC experience on popular games and multimedia applications. Watch videos without the annoying artifacts and imperfections of traditional PC-based video solutions. System memory dedicated to video performance is not available for other use by other programs.

Hardware Issue

The is some rumors about this laptop or notebook. Its quite hot on the left. Because there is a Hard Disk (HDD), and maybe the graphic processor were load nicely. But it's not a matter because others laptop also were facing this kind of issue.

The other parts is a Expansion slot and its come with 1 ExpressCard/54 Slot (also supports ExpressCard/34). I have check its not support PCMCIA card at all as this is a new technology and still lack of gadget but all this will be sort around 2007, and the Expresscard gadget will come out as hot as bluetooth and wifi too.

So i hope this review will make you and me looking to this compaq laptop as a valued money for a entry system like this.
