| tallguy6981's Full Review: Hewlett Packard Pavilion 515n (DC471A#ABA) PC Desk... |
First a great system, loaded, very nice design.
If you purchase at Radio Shack.... Different Story.
Has alot of nice features, 6 USB ports, excellent sound, video, dvd, cdrw, CD storage in top, nice case, but, its slow, the Intel Celeron 2.3 GHz processor is VERY slow at times, youd be better upgrading to an AMD Athlon XP 2200 for under $100 for the CPU, and about $75 for the mother board for best performance. Any system running a Celeron gets my two thumbs down. Other than the CPU, HP has a great system here! It comes bundled with lots of great software, including Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition, down fall you get NO CDS! You have to make your own, or rely on a "recovery" partition. Now this is Radio Shacks story at least, they didnt get the name Idiot Shack for nothing, when I called HP they told me there should have been a Recovery CD and Service Pack CD included with this system.
