The laptop is a very good laptop. its decent for what your planing on doing with it. And Having a Dual Core means Both cores are running at the factory stock timing of 2.20GHz so when your running your software and your CPU is  Underload it will be running around 3.97GHz to its max of 4.40GHz.

looks nice, i want one of those now. multitouch is cool too. im not fans of 5400rpm hard drives, but it is a laptop using less power.

i had a tx2000 a few years back, and it was pretty cool (dumb screen though glossy screen in back and touch film over it made it hard to see), until 2 months later where vista updates kept putting it in a never endless update upon boot. and reinstalling it w/ sp1 gave me random bsod, playing avi, fliping screen around... anyway thats offtopic.

ok, update, my parents gave me 800 euro to spend and my grandparents gave me 200 euro.
that is 1000 euro together (no :censored:?!)

HP tx2z Specs:

4GB DDR2 System Memory (2 Dimm) - PC2-6400
ATI Radeon(TM) HD 3200 Graphics with 64MB Display Cache Memory
Webcam + Fingerprint Reader with HP Imprint Finish
Wireless-N Card with Bluetooth
250GB 5400RPM SATA Hard Drive
LightScribe SuperMulti 8X DVD+/-RW with Double Layer Support

i really dont know dude, im not into that stuff
i love everything abt the laptop , but dual core is way old now !!! , the most basic laptops run on core 2 duo (intel) , and turion x2  is really crap ! no offense now days we run on i7 , which is literally another world of processing speed , but other than the processor , its got bad ass features ....i reckon u go for it !! :)

Title: Re: HP TouchSmart tx2-1020us *UPDATE*
Post by: ~:Dhruv:~ on March 25, 2009, 08:52:18 PM
@stealthedhunter - Its a tablet pc not a gaming pc. The specs are fine. Its actually a very good deal
Title: Re: HP TouchSmart tx2-1020us *UPDATE*
Post by: kevindong on March 28, 2009, 06:07:15 PM
2 cores doesnt meen x2 it only means Example two motors running at the same time instead of one or 2 core two cars same horse power pulling vs 1 core 1 car pulling
i7 is for desktops and core 2 quad isnt even on a laptop yet even if it is one on a tablet will probably cost 2k 320Gb is enough cause max is 500gb
Title: Re: HP TouchSmart tx2-1020us *UPDATE*
Post by: StealthedHunter on March 31, 2009, 07:24:44 PM
i know its not a gaming pc, but i would still like good specs. also there are core 2 quad on laptops. alienware has one. the specs just arent worth the price imho
Title: Re: HP TouchSmart tx2-1020us *UPDATE*
Post by: dedafmonteur on March 31, 2009, 10:52:28 PM
i dont want intel, i want amd.
dont ask me why just feels good
