Amazon.com Product Description

The HP Pavilion s7400n Slimline desktop PC gives you all the power of a fully loaded home/office desktop in a sleek, silvery gray chassis. Measuring 4.4 inches wide and 9.75 inches high, it's one-third the size of a traditional PC tower, enabling you to place it unobtrusively anywhere--from your office to entertainment center to kitchen. It's a great choice for everything from working on your family's finances to storing and playing an extensive multimedia library (including photos, home video from your camcorder, and all your music). It features a large 160 GB hard drive, 512 MB of installed RAM (2 GB max), 1.6 GHz Intel Celeron M processor 380, LightScribe dual layer DVD burner with 16x DVD+R write speed (also compatible with writing CDs), multi-format memory card reader, a wide variety of connectivity options (including both USB 2.0 and FireWire), and Windows XP Home Edition.

<b>The Basics</b>
<ul>

  • Hard Drive: The 160 GB hard drive (7200 RPM) is very large in size compared to other budge-conscious, family-oriented desktop PCs. It provides a good size for a wide range of software applications and a generously sized digital audio library as well as room enough for editing digital home video.
  • Processor: The Intel Celeron M Processor 380 is traditionally designed specifically for mobile computing, but the 380 enables the SlimLine s7400n to keep cool even when multitasking. The 1.6 GHz speed resides near the very top of the spectrum for this processor (as of March 2006). It also features a 400 MHz front-side bus (FSB) and large 1 MB L2 cache. (An L2, or secondary, cache temporarily stores data; and a larger L2 cache can help speed up your system's performance. The FSB carries data between the CPU and RAM, and a faster front-side bus will deliver better overall performance.)
  • Memory: The 512 MB of built-in memory (2 x 256 MB, DDR2 SDRAM, PC-4200) will get you off the ground, and it offers a fast 533 MHz speed. But you'll want to take advantage of the 2 GB capacity for working with today's demanding business productivity applications.
  • CD/DVD Drive: Offering the latest in DVD writing technology, the s7400n's multiformat DVD/CD drive is compatible with writing both DVD+ and DVD- disc formats as well as dual-layer (DL) DVD+/-R discs, which can store up to 8.5 GB of data. It features 4x DVD-R DL Write Once, 2.4x DVD+R DL Write Once, 16x DVD+R, 4x DVD+RW, 8x DVD-R, 4x DVD-RW, 16x DVD-ROM, 40x CD-R, 24x CD-RW, and 40x CD-ROM speeds.

    This LightScribe DVD+/-RW drive lets you laser-etch silkscreen quality text and images on to CDs and DVDs. Your software, PC and discs work together for a no-hassle way to burn just the labels you want. After you burn content, just flip the disc over, reinsert and burn your label--anything from a simple title to a full-disc work of art.

  • Keyboard & Mouse: It comes with an HP multimedia keyboard and scroller mouse (both with PS/2 connections). </ul> <b>Screen, Graphics and Sound</b>
    Video is powered by the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 900, which uses Intel Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT) and provides up to 128 MB of shared video memory. This desktop also features the integrated Intel High Definition audio chip (Azalia), featuring THX certification and 8 channels for full Dolby 5.1/6.1/7.1 surround sound with Dolby Pro Logic IIx.

    <b>Connectivity and Expansion Slots</b>
    For expansion, the s7400n has one PCI slot (occupied), one 5.25-inch external bay (occupied), and one internal 3.5-inch bay (occupied). It comes with the following external connectors: <ul>

  • 5 USB 2.0 ports for connecting a wide range of peripherals--from digital cameras to MP3 players (1 in front, 4 in rear)
  • 1 FireWire (also known as IEEE 1394 or i.Link) port for connecting digital video camcorders and other peripherals
  • 2 PS/2 ports for connecting keyboards and mice
  • 1 VGA monitor port
  • 9-in-1 media card reader on the front, compatible with CompactFlash (Type I and II), MicroDrive, SmartMedia, Memory Stick/Memory Stick Pro, MultiMedia Card, Secure Digital, and XD Picture Card
  • 1 headphone
  • 1 microphone
  • 1 line-in </ul> It also has an integrated 56K modem (V.90) and an RJ-45 LAN network port (for a 10/100 Ethernet connection to networks and DSL/cable modems).

    <b>Preloaded System and Software</b>
    This system comes with the Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2 operating system with Advanced Security Technologies, which helps to reduce unwanted downloads and pop-ups while surfing the Web. It also comes preloaded with Microsoft Works 8.0 (for working with word processing and spreadsheet documents), Symantec Norton Internet Security 2005 AntiSpyware Edition (with 60 days of LiveUpdate), Encarta Encyclopedia 2005, Quicken New User Edition 2005, Microsoft Money 2005, Sonic DigitalMedia Plus, Sonic MyDVD Plus, Muvee AutoProducer, PC Recovery, and HP Photosmart Premier for digital image editing and organizing.

    <b>Dimensions and Weight</b>
    This desktop measures 9.75 x 4.4 x 13.125 (HxWxD) and weighs 14.2 pounds.

    <b>What's in the Box</b>
    The HP Pavilion Slimline s7400n desktop PC comes with a power cord, keyboard, and scroller mouse. It is backed by a one-year warranty for parts and labor from date of purchase, one-year technical phone service, and 90 days of software application support.

    5 out of 5 stars Very impressive and it's SO small.......2006-07-21

    Love this HP Pavilion, was a MUCH better value for the money than the comparable Dell. My only two small complaints were AOL was loaded as default internet brouser and it took me about 20 minutes to figure out how to dump that irritaion. Also defaults to Norton as my anti virus and I still have not figured out how to dump that irritating pop up. Otherwise, it's great.

    1 out of 5 stars This is a terrible product.......2006-07-15

    I was unfortunate enough to have purchased this item. I had to return the 1st unit I purchased after a couple of days because it was making a terrible noise. The 2nd unit's video card failed after 4 months. Because I was stupid enough to think that HP made good products, I didn't purchase an extended warranty. HP makes it as difficult as possible to get anything fixed under the standard warranty. The HP staff is very little help and close to rude in my opinion. You have to ship the unit to some place, but since I had something on the hard drive that was sensitive, I asked for the part so I could have someone competent fix it (I now believe that all of HP products and staff are worthless). They won't even ship the part so I have to go to great expense and time to have it fixed. I will never buy *anything* from HP again!
