    Flip it upside down, theres the HP sticker next to the Windows sticker, the exact model number will be on the sticker.

    Yep, you have the right PC. DV9700 is the generic name for the 97xx series. Basically, the dv9700t (intel CPU) and dv9700z (AMD CPU) are customizable laptops ordered through hp.com. The dv97xx are PRECONFIGURED laptops that you can purchase at a retail store.
