    HP just uses the same chassis over and over again, so this does not surprise me. I've read reports of this all over the forums.

    Just check and make sure you have all the hardware you paid for (right CPU, RAM, HDD, GPU, etc) and you're good to go.

    As Greg mention, it should not be anything to be worried apart.

    Dv6000=family
    Dv6500=series
    DV6629=specific model

    There should be a system information dialogue( I dont know the exact name/location in Vista) that should tell you most of the info but there are also software that tell you info about your system.

    Here is the list for the Best Free Software for Windows thread
