    Dv 2750:
    Intel Core2 Duo T5550 1.83 GHz
    Memory 2048MB 667 MHz DDR2
    Intel graphic Accelerator X3100
    Screen 14.1"

    Dv 2650:
    Intel Core2 Duo T7250 2.0 GHz
    Memory 2048MB 667 MHz DDR2
    NVIDIA GeForce 8400M GS 64MB
    Screen 14.1"

    other technical specification are the same.
    are there any differences between the 2 models except the cpu & the gpu ?
    i mean in the dimensions, design, or other things ?
    which of them was manufactured first?

    another question is, will i be able install on it Xp ? cause i understand that there is a problem with Xp drivers for Hp notebooks,
    do u know if there are already drivers for these models ?

    10x.

    They are physically identical, and the dv2750 is a newer release.

    The higher the number doesnt exactly mean its newer. The numbers are there to define the notebooks specs/configuration

    Look at the DV2650, it has better specs than the 2750

    Yes they are all physically the same, only the specs differ

    A dv27xx model is a later release than a dv26xx, dv25xx etc etc... The last two numbers denote specs within the refresh cycle.

    Just because it has better specs does not make it newer. My old dv6400 is better spec'd than the bottom level dv6700 is right now (and the dv6700 is much newer). ;)
