So far, so good by EPA316 on amazon.com Feb 28, 2012
When my 5 year old Gateway finally locked up on me for good, and I was told it would cost more to fix it than it was worth, I decided to bite the bullet and get a new computer. After researching all the choices available, I settled on this HP. I look ...

Love my new laptop! by upnorthgirl on shopping.hp.com Jan 1, 2012
Updated my 10" netbook to this 17" HP & it is great for viewing photos, doing online research, and watching youtube videos. The sound is better than I expected and the keyboard is really easy to use. I especially like the number pad on the right (missed ...

Poor build, good configuration! by DailyPCuser on shopping.hp.com Jan 10, 2012
The tech specs for this computer was good. HP laptop came highly recommended to me. The setup was easy and works fast. The build quality was however very poor. The keyboard felt very cheap and looked like it would jump out when typing. The touch pad/mosue ...
 
RECEIVED LAPTOP WITH BROKEN LENSE by Extremly Frustrated on staples.com Jan 18, 2012
Opened laptop when I got home - lense was broken - neither Staples nor HP will take responsability and HP wants another $350.00 to fix it- What A scam You should buy the warrenty because they dont stand behind their product.
 
Revised Review: Laptop is nice, but buyer beware by silhouette_of_enchantment "zenfully awake." on amazon.com Nov 23, 2011
**REVISED (SEE BELOW) Alright, I have a major revision to the review that I previously wrote originally. The HP Laptop (which seemed nice at first) had to be returned for an exchange. The reason? The 650 Gig Hard drive stopped working after six days, ...
 
What a waste! by Dissatisfied Diva!!!! on staples.com Jan 3, 2012
I purchased this computer on a Saturday on Sunday certain buttons on the keyboard did not work. I called the Staples support I was swindled into buying and then was told to call HP. Called HP an hour of tech support and have to send the computer in. What a waste!
 
Problem from the start. by Unhappy on staples.com Nov 22, 2011
I never got such poor service and knowledge about this computer from staples and HP. The employee at Staples could not tell me much about this computer. I had to figure it out on my own. When the hard disk crashed on the next day I purchased it Staples ...

HP / Hewlett Packard Pavilion g7-1260us 17.3" QE118UA#ABA
Comfortable Keyboard Quality Display Slow After doing some research and considering the price I ordered 2 of these laptops...While the quality of the machine was definately better than my old Dell (those of you that have owned Dell can probably attest to thier quality decline in recent yrs) and I know there are many factors that determine performance; I'd say overall performance seemed about the same...Both have 4GB of memory but that's where I'd expect the comparison to end...

HP Pavilion g7-1260us Review & Rating | PCMag.com
Intel Core i3 processor...640GB hard drive...Big 17-inch display...Stylish two-toned design....Mushy keyboard...Speakers can't handle louder volumes...Limited feature set....The g7-1260us has a sleek, simple look, the two-toned color scheme nicely contrasts its silver-grey lid and palm rest against a dark charcoal grey plastic chassis...The size of the g7-1260us (1.44 by 16.22 by 10.55 inches, HWD), making it more of a stationary desktop replacement...The g7-1260us...
