HP Pavilion DV4

Though I am not a fan of Windows, especially Windows Vista, this laptop is a descent buy. With 4GB of DDR2 memory (and a capacity of 8GB), a 2.0Ghz processor with a system bus of 800Mhz, which is nothing impressive, and a 250GB HDD, this laptop is useful for everyday surfing of the web, running a chat client, and other low-performance programs. Unlike most Vista problems, I haven't had a lot of problems with this laptop except for the normal garbage programs that comes with the laptop. After uninstalling those programs, performance increased tremendously. The reason I bought this laptop was to just bring it along for the internet, AIM, and other small-time programs. The processor is not efficient for running programs like 3DS Max, Photoshop, Maya, and most PC games. It's on-keyboard control panel is touch sensitive but lags tremendously. I do not recommend purchasing this laptop, go for something more high end or spend the extra money and buy Apple.
