HP Notebook

Is it worth it?

I just need a laptop for basic usage such as web browsing, P2P, burn CD's/DVD's, rip CD's/DVD's, watch movies, pRon:P, etc.

Save the hundred bucks and get this:

Dell Inspiron at Best Buy

Almost every store has it.

I was in Best Buy, Ciruit City, and MicroCenter today and I didn't see that notebook priced that low. I saw a couple of $999+ Dell notebooks, but not one at that price.

A Turion X2 is easily beaten by a comparably clocked Core 2 Duo. The laptop also has a pretty low end gpu. That said, long as you're not looking to do any heavy gaming on it, it should meet your needs.
