    Hi, I'm just wondering if anyone with any of the DV6000 series of entertainment notebooks has upgraded to Windows 7 yet. I'm running it on my desktop and am a pretty big fan of the OS at this point. I'd like to take advantage of my student discount and get an upgrade copy for my laptop, but I'm a bit worried about upgrading an OS on laptop.

    Specifically, there aren't any Windows 7 drivers listed on HPs site for my model. Not surprising since it's a few years old, but I get the feeling that if I upgrade I'll lose the launch buttons, remote, and some of the other features...which would kind of be a huge pain. Any advice?
