    Hi all,
    I got a quote for this HP 6910p for $1450USD delivered to Australia. I dont know if it's a good value for money and also the configuration if good enough for a Business graduate working in Finance/investment. Also I'm a bit concerned about the screen coz TFT XGA is not WXGA, right? and is it ok for this screen? Thanks

    Your screen is WXGA (1280 x 800), not the highest resolution but that's a personal preference, otherwise, the max option is WXGA+ (1440×900).

    That seems like an OK deal for the price, it should do everything you need it to do. And as Dreamer said, yes, you do have a WXGA screen.
