    Here is what I am looking at:

    * Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 1 (64-bit)
    * Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad Processor Q9000 (2.00Ghz, 6MB L2 Cache, 1066MHz FSB)
    * 4GB DDR3 System Memory (2 Dimm) - For 1GB Nvidia GeForce GT 130M
    * FREE Upgrade to 500GB 7200RPM SATA Hard Drive from 320GB 7200RPM SATA Hard Drive
    * 1GB Nvidia GeForce GT 130M - For DDR3 Memory
    * 18.4" diagonal High Definition HP Ultra BrightView Infinity Display (1920x1080p)
    * Lightscribe Blu-Ray ROM with SuperMulti DVD+/-R/RW Double Layer
    * Webcam + Fingerprint Reader with HP Imprint Finish (Fluid)
    * Intel Next-Gen Wireless-N Mini-card with Bluetooth
    * HP Integrated HDTV Hybrid Tuner
    * Full Size Backlit Keyboard
    * 8 Cell Lithium Ion Battery
    * No Productivity Software
    * HP Home & Home Office Store in-box envelope


    The question I have, Can I get the P8700 processor on it so I don't have to pay extra, and then buy either a Q9000, Q9100 or QX9300 on ebay and put it in there?

    And if I can, what spec number for the processor would I need? (ex. Q9100 QAVK or QDRS)
