    1. What is heat and noise level of AMD CPU on DV6000z compared to DV6000t?

    2. It comes with 802.11a/b/g WLAN and Bluetooth wireless, is it usable? How is it like compared to Intel wireless chip.

    If I have positive reponses on these two questions, I will go with a dv6000z.

    1. A little higher, on account of the nVidia chipset. That's the price you pay for a decent integrated GPU. It's still worth buying the dedicated memory GPU option IMHO.

    2) The Broadcom wireless chips HP uses are at least as good as what Intel builds.
