Pretty cheap, but it's a pre order which is annoying.

Thoughts?

    Stock are coming soon!

    We just receive the update from Hp already. the stock is on the way.

    • ThePistonHead on 31/01/2011 - 16:50

      How long before it's in stock?

      • ThePistonHead on 31/01/2011 - 16:50

        Anything better than 'coming soon'?

      • jennica11 on 31/01/2011 - 16:53

        We just receive the update from Hp.

        The stock will be coming with in 7 working day. ( if not trouble )

    • SuperBoi on 31/01/2011 - 19:43

      Hi, how much are transit fees to Melbourne? and can you share information regarding your warranty policies. Ta

  • str1k34 on 31/01/2011 - 16:59

    Dupe.

    though the link in the old post is now invalid. 9289 seems to have a new site coming up.

    • jennica11 on 31/01/2011 - 17:00

      Yes we do have new website just up yesterday.

  • awkwardpaws on 31/01/2011 - 17:21

    given it a +1, but really, that price isnt that much cheaper considering its display (1366 x 768)

  • BelLikesABarg on 31/01/2011 - 17:36

    my question is, is this a good machine? I only want it for home use, not a gamer etc. Any advice? i'm not tech savvy…

  • vid_ghost on 31/01/2011 - 17:47

    Cant pre-order it without adding the 8GB of ram option.. hmmmm

    • ozdavo on 31/01/2011 - 18:10

      I agree, NEG as misleading (8GB = $819), until $699 option is returned.

        Probably an oversight by 9289, but very misleading if it's not. Hopefully a rep will clarify ASAP. :)

      • str1k34 on 01/02/2011 - 14:42

        well its fixed now.

    • MHLoppy on 31/01/2011 - 18:15

      Not such a deal if this remains…

    • str1k34 on 31/01/2011 - 18:21
      +2

      its prob just a bug in their site tbh

      on a side note, Dell charges about $200 for a 4GB ram upgrade so its erm not bad deal to have that 8gb too

      • MHLoppy on 31/01/2011 - 18:23
        +1

        regarding the ram, true, but the ram upgrade is sort of overkill for a laptop on this end of the scale.

        • vid_ghost on 31/01/2011 - 18:58

          Yeah its not required for this laptop!

    • jennica11 on 01/02/2011 - 01:06

      sorry

      There was a site error.

      We have post it online again.

      Thanks

  • MHLoppy on 31/01/2011 - 17:50

    Quite a good deal imo :) most laptops at sub 800 have a worse graphics card.

    That said, HP isn't the best brand I know for laptops.. still if you're not too fussed then it's still very good for its price.

  • SuperBoi on 31/01/2011 - 19:29

    sorry guys but how trust worthy are 9289.com.au? is there even a valid ABN number? and what about warranty etc?

    • ywpn on 31/01/2011 - 19:31

      I've bought a router from them before. Came very nicely boxed and they were prompt with delivery. However, laptop is a different thing altogether.

      • Mainsail on 31/01/2011 - 21:20

        I was thinking the same thing with Aldi Medion Notebooks.

      Should be good

      Apparently me and some other posters here have no life :)

    • ozhunter on 31/01/2011 - 21:35

      Bought a laptop from them last year, took 14 days to arrive, but arrived in perfect condition.

  • ywpn on 31/01/2011 - 19:32

    Very worth it!!! CPU might be a bit of a let down though.

    • MHLoppy on 31/01/2011 - 19:33

      It's pretty good. Decent clock speed and IPC with 2 cores and hyperthreading :)

      • MHLoppy on 31/01/2011 - 22:11

        Sorry I believe I meant "clock speed and IPS" or IPC, the 2 above don't go together..

        That's not the OzB spirit…pitchforks out, chaaaaaaarrrrrrrge! :p

          lol

    • Neatoboy on 31/01/2011 - 20:45

      I think it's probably a mistake. They just need to add a 4GB option, but let's wait for the rep to check it out.

  • Cheeper on 31/01/2011 - 22:20

    +1 from me for the specs & price.

    had a HP lappy dv6 for over a year now and it is excellent, cannot fault it.

    the ones here saying that hp lappys are no good… could they quote the make & model number of the "perfect" lappys with same specs for around the same price please.

    • MHLoppy on 31/01/2011 - 22:23

      At this price this I think this is a good buy, but HP laptops are usually overpriced (for specs compared to some others) and/or of lower quality (overheating issues etc). There's a Compaq behind me (one of their basic models) and it can get annoying to game on since your hands heat up (heat isn't put out very well, it tends to just rise up to get out)

    Sorry for the mistake.

    We have just change it back,

    Because we just switch to new site yesterday, that is why it happen.

    sorry !!!

  • AaronRain on 01/02/2011 - 11:56

    It's not available any more?
    Sorry but this item is currently unavailable.

    Please check back at a later stage.

    Hopefully there will be more deal like this when the new processor come out.

    • vicdor on 01/02/2011 - 13:20

      It seems to be available to me still

      • AaronRain on 02/02/2011 - 00:40

        Nope, my still say the same thing, if I try to click on any of the radio button (None, 8GB) it change to:

        "The selected product combination is currently unavailable."

        • jennica11 on 02/02/2011 - 12:23

          Fully Sold out already!

          Sorry

        • MHLoppy on 02/02/2011 - 16:10

          wow that didn't last that long..

  • thetrash on 02/02/2011 - 17:31

    since this was pre order, can we pre order for the next batch?

  • striker5950 on 02/02/2011 - 19:12

    this deal was posted 3 days ago and its still says available for preorder only,
    i did some research and it looks like it has overheating issues, hp in general has high failure rate but the specs on this thing look really good.
