The thinner and lighter HP Pavilion dv8000 ($1,579 as tested) is not as powerful as its predecessor, the Pavilion zd8000, but it serves as a nice desktop replacement notebook for moderate workloads. It uses the AMD Turion 64 ML-40 (2.2 GHz), and has dual 100GB hard drives (200GB total) and a gorgeous 17-inch widescreen. Although Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition is not currently available on this model, when it is, this will make a great Media Center system..
