Notebookreview decided to give HP's DV4170 laptop a go. Here's a short snip from their review:

I am reviewing the HP DV4000 series. It is a medium sized laptop and a great multimedia companion. It weighs in at 6.5 lbs. making it fairly light seeing how it is close to a desktop replacement in features. My previous laptop, the Sony Vaio PCG-FRV26, was under a Best Buy warranty and I recently sent it in to have the CD writer as well as the dead pixels on the screen replaced. I was ecstatic to hear that they had decided to invoke their no lemon policy and had agreed to replace my laptop with a laptop of equal or lesser value than what I paid for my original laptop..

Overall they same to be satisfied with this notebook.
