    Hi,
    I'm planning to buy the DV6663ca from Costco to replace my battered toshiba m60-bk3. I was just wondering if anyone here has had any experience with this particular laptop. Also, how is the build quality for the HP's. And if someone could post a full spec sheet including battery information, and if it has bluetooth or not. Thanks. PS. I'm getting it for 999.99 CDN + tax at my local Costco in Ontario. Let me know if you think its worth it. Thanks

    Thanks for the quick reply. So i was looking at the spec sheet and noticed that this laptop has 2 HDD. Is it normal for a 15" laptop to have 2 and how come it breaks down the 2 HDD as 120Gb and 80Gb and then says total is 250GB. Shouldn't it say 200GB total?

    I have this laptop. It only has 1 HDD. I believe the HDD actually just has two platters or something.

    PS. It has no Bluetooth. Very good graphics and processor speed.

    PPS. How are you getting it for $999 :( I got it for $1199-1299 or so!

    PPS. This one comes with the default 6-cell battery. Some of the FS/BB models have a standard 12-cell battery, but with a slower processor and/or graphics chip. You can always buy a new battery later on though.

    PPPPPPPPPPPPPS. This notebook also has a two-year warranty instead of one-year.
