When someone annoys you it takes 42 muscles to frown about it but it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and punch the crap out of them

 

I hope I can give my 2 cents worth even though I don't have the units. I did do a bit of research into these units when I decided to return my NX7000. I looked at both units at my local BestBuy and Futureshop and this is what I found.

1. The HP ZX5000 looks better than the R3000. The HP is all balck and silver, while the Compaq is mainly all silver & graphite w/white keyboard
2. They're both built just as good as each other, not advantages here
3. Technically, these are identical units (built on the same platform) and are also the same as the NV5000 & NX9110, so internal wise, they're the same
4. I personally didn't notice any difference in the speakers, but owners here state that the Harmon Kardon speakers in the HP sound better than the JBL in the Compaq.

Here are some high-res close-up pictures of the ZX5000 & R3000. let me know if you want other angles displayed.
