    I just bought my hp dv6000t, and i cant wait till it comes!

    I went to hp.com to check if they changed any prices on the dv6000t. When i looked, there was no customize button. There was only a "recommended" button, and i clicked that and there was some kind of error. They will probably fix this soon, so take a look now! lol
    Im just glad i already bought mine! Go here:

    Thanks. -MATT

    well for me this is what happens:

    for the hp laptops, when i click customize, this comes up:

    "CTO error Thank you for your interest in this customized series.

    Due to the tremendous response to this series, this page has become temporarily unavailable.

    We suggest that you try to customize again, consider our ready-to-ship products, or call our sales center to purchase at 1-800-351-9687.

    Thank you for shopping with us."

    and when i try to click on a compaq model, this is what comes up:

    "An error has occurred. We have logged this error and will investigate the cause.

    * If you typed the URL yourself, please make sure that the spelling is correct
    * If you clicked a link to get here, there may be a problem with the link
    * Try using your browser's "Back" button or the "Go to Home & Home Office Store " link below to choose a different link on that page, or use search to find what you're looking for

    We apologize for the inconvenience!"

    this is very weird that this dosent happen with you...

    Hmm, now it's doing it.

    Either HP's site is having problems, or there are a lot of people buying computers right now.

    =P

    WEll they should be... Best time to get really nice deals on HPs!
    They basically have to get rid of the non-vista models.

    HP makes the notebook once you order it, so there's no need for them to try and get rid of the 'non-Vista' models.

    Once January 30th comes, they'll just start imaging the hard drives with Vista and not XP.



    Probably around the same.

    Maybe a little more, but I doubt there'd be much of a difference.

    Nah, you should be fine. You can always upgrade to Vista if you really want with the upgrade CD.

    N is the new standard. Faster than G.
