Pros: Easy setup, plug and play, powerful machine, easy access for upgrades. 4 monitors work out of the box, great price on this newegg deal that included a monitor plus the machine.

Cons: Only 1 drive, no RAID out of the box, No blu-ray, VERY HEAVY, no extended warranty plans with HP, package came with home premium instead of Vista ultimate, Using all 4 memory slots x1MB which meand I have to replace every peice of memory to upgrade to 8mb

Overall Review: Love the machine, 1/2 way. If you get a machine like this you don't want to go 1/2 way, I had to purchase additional HD's so I could have RAID1 OS and RAID1 Data sets (4 drives), a lightscribe Blu-ray dvd, and a TV tuner card. A machine with all this power shouldn't sit still with flimsy drive design. Be VERY Careful when ordering things on NewEgg, they have a huge RMA policy that is very pricy and you sincerly pay for your mistakes. I purchsed extra drives, but they were the wrong ones. Check with the HP people before you do this, NewEgg doesn't know and you still get slammed if you return. Just ordered some memory (checked with HP first) NewEgg has awesome prices, but again, be certain your getting the right thing. Bottom line, this machine does it right 1/2 way. It will be a great machine without the enhancements I made, but I am a purist in solid design. Drives always go out and you never ever can have to much RAM.
