    Take a look on their site. It's not there anymore... I know the Athlon 64 wasan't the most battery efficient, but the ZV6000/R4000 had lots of power for a budget notebook.:amd64:

    It is now the dv5000z/V5000z with the Mobile Sempron and Turion in place of the Athlons.

    Yeah, it's a loss. These were wonderful, well built machines. I'm typing right now on zv6000 and love it.

    I think the dv5000z is a worthy replacement.

    Yes, I noticed this as well. I'm hoping they are putting a decent gpu in it and then re-releasing it. We will see.
