Pros: Installed easily on my HP Pavilion dv8000t, works like a charm. No issues from start to finish.

Cons: None thus far.

Overall Review: Shipped quickly, packaging was fine, not much else to say other than I'm a happy customer!

Pros: Everything is highly customizable, and the ability to overclock on the fly is nice. LCD lights aren't annoying, because they can be disabled fairly easily. Works as expected, which is all I can ask for in a laptop. This runs faster than my $1000 desktop bought a month ago.

Cons: Heat vent on the left side makes that area around the laptop very hot. Would be afraid to have anything sitting next to that side of the laptop. Lot of bloatware, but was able to remove most of it and tweak everything the way I wanted within about 2 hours. All in all, nothing that would keep this from being a great buy. FINGERPRINTS EVERYWHERE. Slight exaggeration, but you'll get use out of the cloth this laptop is packaged with. Not the screen itself, but the lid itself is a glossy black and therefore gets prints easily.

Overall Review: Comes with Vista 64-bit, something the specs don't necessarily point out. The lid has an orange area on it (near where it opens, when closed). The pictures don't indicate this. To get an idea of where the orange area is, look at the newegg pictures. When viewing a picture of the laptop open, from behind - it's the strip near the top that is a slightly darker/sleek black.
