 Rating:  - Have to order a replacementI have a big problem with this computer. It loses power intermittently and after that I cannot even turn it on. Sometimes I have to wait an hour, sometimes a couple of days passed before it would turn on. Looks like a major hardware problem. I called HP and they would not replace it. Told me that I need to send it to them for repair which would take at least 2 weeks. So, I'm returning it to Amazon and getting another one. Hopefully, this time it will be a different story. Otherwise, the computer ... Read More Rating:  - HP IQ504Everything has worked great so far. Setup was easy, the touchsmart is really neat. The only anoyance so far is to use the touchsmart you have to be in 96dpi mode. This makes the icons so small you cannot touch one at a time. To get larger icons you have to switch to the 120dpi mode which then means you can't use the touchsmart mode. I asked H/P about this and they told me that eventually they would make a fix for the problem. Rating: - Nice computer for the techie in all of usI bought this computer on Sunday, and though I've heard all the belly-aching about Vista, there isn't any viable alternative other than Mac OSX on Apple. Anyhow this computer so far is a dream. Vista took only a few minutes to initalize, it detected my wireless network, accepted my password, and was online in only a few moments. It literally walked it's self through the process. All the specs have been typed before, so I won't repeat. Lets say that the system is fast and have found ... Read More Rating:  - Simply clean, fast and beautiful computerI use to work on Mac and other good computers and must say that this HP is surprising! It's above any iMac (I can't prevent myself from comparing it to an iMac because of the design and the fact it's all integrated into the screen) offering the power of a good mid/up class PC (including Macs) without the huge heavy and often ugly box, at a reasonnable price... and plus you have a touch screen! Two months ago I tried the entry level TouchSmart (I think it was the iQ504 ?) at the shop and was ... Read More Rating: - Pleasantly Surprised !!!Anytime new electronics come out, you need to be a little skeptical. However, I already have a VISTA pc and have had very few problems so far, and it's been about a year. So I decided to take a gamble and I'm happy I did. I was also surprised that the Touch screen works with almost all programs so far. I did have 1 issue with the DVD Multi drive. Hoever, HP quickly sent a new one, which gave me an opportunity to check out the inside of the unit. Also, it is very ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
