Heaps of brushed aluminum-looking plastic, which is good at not showing fingerprints and feels solid. In fact the only bit of the laptop with a reflective surface is the screen bezel and between the keys, so a decent effort there from HP. The touch pad is very nice, feels ‘right’, unlike the unholy botch up that was last years ones, they were without doubt the worst touch pads I’ve used. The chiclet keyboard feels good, and is well spaced and laid out. There are no silly touch sensitive buttons, and the buttons that are there are sensible and feel good. Can't believe it, but I'd happily own one... what's happening! www.engadget.com There's some pics. Guess time will tell if they are any more reliable.	wratterus (105)

They should just get rid of all their software... I hate it when I get a new laptop then have to go and delete all the junk off. It looks really nice, wonder if the new ones overheat??	sahilcc7 (15483)

1225741	2011-08-25 11:45:00	See my post Ken Whoops, didn't see that. Am actually looking to sell my DV5 (Probably get about $500) and then probably going to buy something else.	sahilcc7 (15483)
