HP Pavilion dv6000t is Intel based member of Pavilion dv6000 series and one of the first in HP Pavilion line of notebooks (together with dv9000t ) to feature new Intel Core 2 Duo processor.

Laptop Magazine reviewed HP Pavilion dv6000t and writes: “We’re happy to see that while there’s a new chip on the inside, HP didn’t alter the design of the slick Pavilion dv6000t. The glossy piano-black finish and gray pinstriping outside (with that color scheme reversed inside) looks stunning. Even better, the dv6000t has the features and performance to complement its good looks.

The real draw, of course, is the performance. The Core 2 Duo processor helped the dv6000t deliver the best MobileMark 2005 score we’ve ever seen from a mainstream portable (279)–a full 50 points better than the identical machine configured with the older Core Duo CPU. Battery life was a respectable 3 hours and 39 minutes.

So for consumers and business users looking for a fast laptop, the HP Pavilion dv6000t fits the bill.”

A wide range of Intel processors is available on this notebook to fit every need. For light usage (e-mail, Web surfing), choose a Celeron processor. Core Solo or Core Duo, which speed up performance for single apps, are the minimum required for a Centrino solution. If you often multitask, go with Core 2 Duo processors (64-bit) so your overall system performance won’t slow when you run multiple applications in parallel.

The dv6000t shows off HP’s classy new notebook design with glossy, black resin finish and wave pattern, plus latch-free closure. In addition, you can control the volume and launch buttons on this 6.1 lb. notebook simply by tapping or swiping your finger across a strip on the keyboard.

With this model’s optional integrated 1.3 MP webcam and dual omni-directional microphones, it’s easy to stay in touch with friends and family. Use the webcam with an instant messaging application to have a live chat with anyone, anywhere in the world, who has an Internet connection. Or use a video application to capture video for playback later. Take still pictures and e-mail them to friends. The integrated microphone also supports VOIP applications.

This notebook’s large, 15.4″ high-definition widescreen facilitates viewing; while the BrightView option provides a higher contrast ratio and better viewing with DVD movies and gaming. For lifelike images in games and home-theater quality video, select the optional Nvidia GeForce Go 7400 graphics card with 256MB TurboCache (128MB discrete + 128MB shared). High-quality audio is provided by the integrated Altec-Lansing stereo speakers. You can also choose two sets of stereo earbud headphones so you and a friend can enjoy music without disturbing others.

The dv6000t features HP QuickPlay 2.3, which allows you to launch DVDs, music, and photos without starting the system. An optional remote, which stores in the ExpressCard slot, lets you control QuickPlay from up to 10 feet. Transfer photos from your digital camera to the dv6000t via the optional 5-in-1 digital media card reader, then use HP’s Photosmart Premier software for editing, printing, organizing, sharing, and storing of photos. If you pick a SuperMulti DVD±RW/R drive, you can turn your photos into movies, plus edit video and create CDs and DVDs. Choose the LightScribe option on the DVD±RW/R drive to laser-etch labels on CDs and DVDs as you create them.

The HP xb3000 Notebook Expansion Base (sold separately) connects your dv6000t to peripherals, including a monitor if you want a desktop experience. You also get two USB 2.0 ports, an ExpressCard/54 slot, an RJ-11, an RJ-45, an S-Video port, a Consumer IR, a headphone jack, and an external microphone port. If you select the NVIDIA GeForce Go 7400 graphics card or Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 for Core processors, you also get: 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet (with NVIDIA only), 5-in-1 digital media card reader, an extra USB 2.0 port, an IEEE 1394 FireWire, and a second headphone jack with S/PDIF. You also get integrated 802.11b/g WLAN or optional Intel Pro/Wireless 3945ABG, with or without Bluetooth.
