When will HP put a VESA mount on one of these things?
They keep making the stupid assumption that everyone wants a machine on their table/desktop leaning at the annoying angle that this thing sits at.
Not something you want if you install software other than what comes on it – Not a lot of 32bit software that will run consistently on this thing.
Most of it runs slow, crashes or won’t load at all.
Keep looking – - – maybe HP will get it right eventually.

I have had the pleasure of this fine machine now for a month, and I must say I’am glad I went ahead and spent the additional money and would highly recommend you doing the same. Also I’am very happy that I was patient enough to research all of the posibilities, because I saved 400 Dollars when I purchased this from Amazon .com. Ed Kirk

All I can say is that I liked it so much that I purchased another one for my wife. Had a slight problem with the power adapter but HP took care of it without any hassles. My hat goes off to HP for a great job on customer service and also a wonderful product.

I had an HP Pavillion which was, to put it simply, a complete disaster. I swore I’d never buy am HP ever again. In checking out replacements, I looked into some All-In-One’s like this one. After careful research (and some trepedation), I decided on this one.
I use the PC as a media server and bedroom TV and it excells at both. As a media server, I get flawless performance streaming music, photos, and video to my DVR’s in the living room (DirecTV HR20 and HR21). As an added bonus, however, unlike the similarly outfitted Pavillion, this computer runs DirecTV2PC flawlessly. That means HD Video in my bedroom from my living room DVRs. The DVD/BD player is great, and I love the discrete slot loading mechinism behind the screen. Also, one cable (power) coming from the back beats the usual rats nest of cables around most PCs!
The PC’s preformance is lightning quick and I can use Vista as soon as it boots up (no more waiting 10 minutes after boot-up before I can do anything!).
The touchscreen is very responsive and hyper accurate. The HP Touchsmart software is great, but I can use Vista without a mouse with this as well. I can even launch from the quick launch bar with my finger!
The screen is big, bright, and really pretty to look at. The ambient light for the keyboard is customizable and really pretty.
All in all, for TV, media, games, and even some work, this is the best computer out there and well worth the money!
P.S. At 54 pounds, Amazon still delivered for free!!!
