    I've not heard anything about this and can't seem to find much info online either. This is a 15.6" (not 15.4") notebook with a screen resolution of 1366x768.

    The specs for the G60-120US on CircuitCity.com-

    AMD Turion RM-70 (2.0GHz)
    Vista Home Premium 32-bit
    3GB DDR2
    250GB Hard Drive
    nVIDIA GeForce 8200M (integrated)
    Wireless a/b/g/n
    DVD SuperMulti with Lightscribe

    The only other product I've seen with the nVIDIA 8200M is a dirt-cheap Compaq model. That doesn't bode well for it's performance (is it the replacement for the 7150M integrated)?

    I'm guessing overall performance will be inferior to a dv5z with the RM-70 and the ATI HD 3200....

    The product specification page for the G60-120US can be found here -
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/...13&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=3795258&lang=en

    Other than that, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of known information besides this and looking at the driver page. There also seems to be a G50-100 and G70-100 series as well, presumably having different screen sizes. And yes, they seem to look like dirt-cheap Compaqs in disguise.
