Pavilion g6 by dominic27bI purchased this computer from OfficeDepot, and I purchased this one because I knew that a dual core processor would be very powerful, and it was fabulous for the amount of money I would be paying for it.
Pavilion g6 by LMC (Oct, 2012)Some features I love about it: the size vs the weight(It is a decent size, but very light weight), crystal clear webcam, nice keyboard, brilliant screen and sound resolution,decent battery life(4+ hours), and it's really fast (dual core processor).

Pavilion g6 by Bernadette (Oct, 2012)I can't tell that this is such an inexpensive laptop, since all these programs respond perfectly even though I am probably using the maximum ram.
Pavilion g6 by Brinard-Sweeting (Dec, 2011)Intel Core i3 Processor is insanely fast paired with the amount of RAM that comes with it for indexing large files on the 640GB hard drive.-4GB RAM really increases the boot time in my opinion.
