I recently bought HP Pavilion DV9920us and it sucks big time. I was jumping up and down for the first couple of days as it has 4Gb ram. But the celebration didnt last long after I decided to wipe off the Vista it came with. Its so damn hard to find the drivers for this in Centos and XP. Turns out, they wont give even XP drivers for crying out loud. Ofcourse, Ubuntu is rock solid though. Bottom line : Boo HP! Go Anything else!
