    I guess this is to counter this deal: http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/55023 save $30

      Remember, this one only has 1 years warranty compared to 3 from megabuy.

        I think the megabuy offering only comes with 1 year warranty also:

        "THe unit only has a 1 year warranty, so offering a special deal on an extra 2 years for anyone who clicks through the below link."

        Does that mean it costs extra for the added 2 years?

    • imaximax1 on 14/10/2011 - 20:55

      • Savabuck on 15/10/2011 - 13:58

        Is there any change of a special arrangement for payment via Visa? (this would give me 12 mths extended warranty through Visa program)
        Also - what is the guaranteed delivey time as I am travelling overseas in the next few weeks?

        • Store RepShoppingExpress @ Shopping Express on 15/10/2011 - 16:07

          Hi quakka, we dont keep customer's sensitive information in our system at this stage, so we are unable to make special arrangement for you. The fastest way is to use paypal and our normal dispatch time is 1 to 2 business day from receipt of payment.

  • RaVeN_MaN69 on 14/10/2011 - 22:39

    No Gigabit LAN? That sucks really..:(

    • CarbonTwelve on 14/10/2011 - 23:07

      How often are you copying massive amounts of data from a computer to the laptop where it can't be done overnight? It shouldn't be that big of a deal.

      Incidentally, I guess I wasted $30 with MegaBuy's deal, oh well :)

      • RaVeN_MaN69 on 14/10/2011 - 23:16

        Gigabit LAN is the most common Connection used in todays home networks. Its a massive speed difference from 10/100 (10MBS) where Gigabit can get up to 80+ MBS.

        Ideal for LANS, HTPC and home file sharing. Gigabit is a must in laptops :D

        • CarbonTwelve on 14/10/2011 - 23:21

          Actually I'd say 10/100 is most common as most people would either still have routers/modems from before gigabit was around or have cheaper models that don't have gigabit. Besides which most people connect a laptop using wifi. I'd hardly say gigabit a 'must' in laptops.

    • netsurfer on 14/10/2011 - 23:19

      I think it is a typo. Mainly because the lower end model (ones without Blu-ray) already comes with gigabit ethernet. I know HP site also indicates it… but it makes no sense putting in a 100 Base-T in a laptop with blu-ray drive. Even the DV6 laptops with i5 has gigabit ethernet.

      Best way to tell is to go to OfficeWorks or Harvey Norman to try one out.

      • CarbonTwelve on 14/10/2011 - 23:25

        It could just be that HP had 10/100 chips left over and decided to put them in this model. Why they'd put them in this one and not a cheaper one Idunno, but certainly possible.

        Having said that, there are some sites reporting it as having gigabit (eg: http://www.digitalstar.com.au/hp-pavilion-dv6-6146tx-i7-2630…), so at least one of them has a typo / mistake :)

        • netsurfer on 14/10/2011 - 23:28

          It most likely is gigabit ethernet. I checked a cheaper DV6 before. HP would probably use Realtek gigabit chip for this one. That chip costs less than $10. If HP is really nice and treat this as a proper high end model, then they would put Intel chip in it.

          You don't put a 2GB graphics card in it and try to save $10… pretty sure it would be a gigabit ethernet.

        • billymm on 15/10/2011 - 00:51

          whilst that digitalstar site reports the lan as 10/100/1000 they also report the video card as a 6770M 1GB GDDR5 card - that card is in the DV6-6145TX. The 6146TX has a 6770M 2GB

          I think some sites are confusing the specs between the DV6-6145TX & DV6-6146TX

        • ccrap on 15/10/2011 - 09:43

  • Bacchus on 14/10/2011 - 23:26

    Is a HP extended warranty available?

    • jashjash on 14/10/2011 - 23:44

      yeah, you can always buy HP Care Packs for DV6 Pavilions.

      HEWLETT-PACKARD 3 YRS PICKUP & RETURN SERVICE FOR PAVILLION NOTEBOOKS
      http://www.computerwholesale.com.au/?547215
      $116 for the HP warranty from that site. Search around, you might see it somewhere else cheaper.
      HP does courier pick up and return for your laptop

      • Bacchus on 14/10/2011 - 23:59

        Tried to search for Care Packs or Extended warranties on the HP site, and all the links led to "Sorry, we can't find that page. The page you are looking for is no longer available or has been moved."

        And no details on the dv6-6146tx either. Closest on the Aus HP website is the 6147tx.

  • billymm on 15/10/2011 - 00:54

    Im very intersted in purchasing this but want a 10/100/1000 lan in it.

    Could the rep clarify if the lan is 10/100 or 10/100/1000 pls?

    • Store RepShoppingExpress @ Shopping Express on 15/10/2011 - 10:17

      The listing on HP said 10/100, however, my money is on gigabit LAN. There is simply no reason to have a 10/100 port anymore, especially new laptops.

    Went to Bing Lee Villawood in the attempt to get a price match on this.

His best offer for the laptop for $1300..

  • deltriggah on 15/10/2011 - 13:59

  • EnALup on 16/10/2011 - 10:23

    • CarbonTwelve on 16/10/2011 - 12:05

      It's HP. They're not going under, and even if they did there'd be some other company that buys them out and takes over warranty.

      • TenthGear on 16/10/2011 - 20:56

    @ShoppingExpress, I think you will sell few more laptops with the current deal. You can give it a chance, I suppose.
    Have the same deal with laptop and a good deal in SSD. ( Make them seperate, in case someone doesn't need it)
    Votes are already reached 75.
