::ugh:: win 8…make it stop! O_o

I agree. Couldn’t stand to look at the Windows 8 crap. I’ve the classic bar installed to deal with it.

This seems to be a good notebook for average use and light gaming. The fact that it has a discrete graphics chip is a major plus.

The rest of the specs seem decent for the price except for the on-board LAN; only 10/100. It is probably not a deal breaker for a vast majority of people but I still hook up ye olde wire for large transfers.

A word on Graphics and Gaming:
I’m in the market for a new laptop to play games so the graphics chip is very important to me. With most of the laptop deals here on Woot I get as far as the graphics chip, see that it’s “Intel HD” and… “NOPE”.

The Radeon 8400 on this particular unit is decent but not quite a workhorse, here’s a link to an in depth review for the graphics chip specifically:

In short: If you aren’t planning on doing heavy gaming this is a great deal IMHO. If you need a lot of graphical horsepower then you may want to look elsewhere.

new at Staples, same processor, but 750HD, same price

Indeed–this isn’t a great deal. The one at Staples has the same processor, more memory, and a bigger HD. http://www.staples.com/HP-Pavilion-15-N028US-15-inch-Laptop/product_275820

The HD8400 is not a discrete GPU. It is integrated with the processor. So keep in mind that the processor will be sharing its abilities with the graphics cores.

This processor is a few generations old, but might still keep up with some modern games on low/medium. For this kind of use, these processors are pretty good. Not as power efficient as intel i3, i5. I just bought a laptop with an A6 from the mothership, and I am very happy.
If windows 8 is a problem for you, there are a few Windows 7 laptops for about the same price like the lenovo e545 with very similar specs and (imo) better build quality
