TECHNICAL DETAILS

• Windows Vista for smooth operations
  Get things done, stay connected, and enjoy a variety of entertainment in a secure environment with Windows Vista. This series comes with Vista Home Premium, which includes Windows Aero, Windows Media Center, and instant search functionality.
• The power of two
  The dv9500t features the powerful Intel Core Duo and 64-bit New Core 2 Duo processors. With two execution cores on a single chip, it can run multiple multimedia applications in parallel without slowing the system. This model also supports dual hard drives with up to 240GB of storage (120GB x 2) for accommodating all your digital treasures.
• Elegant and functional
  The dv9500t features our new notebook finish: a high-gloss, black resin with an inlaid "Radiance" pattern. It has a full-sized keyboard with separate numeric keypad; you control the volume and launch buttons by tapping or swiping your finger across a strip on the keyboard.
•  Fingerprint security (optional)
  Goodbye multiple passwords. Simply swipe your finger across the integrated reader (optional) on the side of the panel to log on to your dv9500t and to password-protected Web sites and documents.
• Equipped for video chats
  Stay in touch with friends and family using the optional integrated low-light VGA webcam and two omni-directional microphones, which also support VOIP applications.
• Luxurious digital entertainment
  The diagonal 17" WXGA high-definition widescreen with BrightView is standard; for higher resolution choose WSXGA+. You'll get high-quality sound from integrated Altec Lansing stereo speakers, and you get two stereo headphone jacks (one of which is S/PDIF capable).
• Ideal for music, photos, and videos
  The dv9500t features our latest version of QuickPlay, 3.2, which launches DVDs, music, and photos at the touch of a button. An included remote tucks away in the ExpressCard slot and lets you control QuickPlay from up to 10 feet away. Transfer photos from your digital camera to the dv9500t via the 5-in-1 digital media card reader, then use the Photosmart Premier software for photo editing, printing, organizing, sharing, and storing. You can turn pictures into movies, edit video, and create CDs and DVDs. Added bonus: burn your own, silkscreen-quality labels on your discs when you can choose the LightScribe option on the SuperMulti DVD+/RW/R drive.
• Plentiful connections
  The HP xb3000 Notebook Expansion Base (sold separately) connects your dv9500t to peripherals, including a monitor if you want a desktop experience. You get an integrated 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet (RJ-45), four USB 2.0 (without fingerprint reader), a 5-in-1 digital media card reader, an ExpressCard/54, an RJ-11, an IEEE 1394 FireWire, an S-Video, and a Consumer IR. Intel Pro/Wireless 4965AGN WLAN with Bluetooth is optional. And you can get connected in more places, without having to hunt for hotspots, with the optional Verizon Wireless V740 1XEVDO PC Express Card.
• Award-winning support
  Our one-year limited warranty includes coverage for parts and labor along with toll-free, 24 x 7 support, on-line chat with support agents, and e-mail response in about an hour.
