With widescreen laptops becoming more and more popular, a lot of manufacturers have to come up with new ideas to make their products more appealing and to differentiate one model from another. hp has done this with the HP pavilion dv1000 as it is the first 14 inch widescreen laptop to arrive at the markets all over the world and it also doubles up as a portable media PC, although it is not running Windows Media Center. It is however running a pre Windows application called QuickPlay, which is a customised Linux environment, but you would be none the wiser with all the hp branded slick menus that you’re presented with.
