    Does the dv7t offer an LED backlit screen?

    I don't think it does, but someone in another thread when I was asking for suggestions of systems with an LED backlight and a decent GPU brought it up (systems besides what Dell and Apple offer, since I know about them).

    Anyone know for sure? I'm not too crazy about HP, and I hate that they don't give you a real Windows install disc like Dell (and Gateway?) do, but it sounds about perfect otherwise. Good up to date CPU. Geforce 9600GT (which I guess is really an 8600GT or 8700GT, something along those lines, which is okay), Blu Ray, and an LED backlight (if it HAS an LED backlight as an option)...

    No LED option yet. If they did, it would likely be a $200+ upgrade like on the dv4t.

    I'd pay a lot more than $200 for it :)

    Anyway thanks for the feedback. I didn't think it did but a guy in another thread claimed it did.
