HP G60-507DX

OK.. Black Friday just got a bit more interesting folks.

Best Buy announced today they were adding one more product to their list of Black Friday sale items – their first ever value-priced HP laptop, the G60-507DX, for a sale price of $197 dollars.

So what will you get for $197 dollars?  Here’s the rundown on specs:

  • Intel Celeron 900 processor clocked at 2.2 GHz with 1MB cache and 800MHz FSB
  • 2GB of RAM expandable to 4GB
  • DVD+-R/CD+-RW burner with dual-layer support
  • 15.6 inch widescreen display with 1366 x 768 resolution
  • 160GB 7200RPM SATA HDD
  • Intel GMA4500M integrated graphics
  • 5 in 1 media card reader
  • 802.11 b/g Wi-Fi and Ethernet connectivity
  • HP Imprint Piano Black Finish
  • Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit Edition
  • Measures 1.7 inches thick and weighs 6.6 lbs

For $197, this system certainly delivers more bang for the buck than inexpensive netbook systems; unless of course you’re looking for something that is thin and light with a long lasting battery. If you’re more concerned about performance and less concerned about weight and battery life, then my friends, this system is a steal.

Sooo.. you can be sure this system will disappear fast early Friday morning. Best Buy’s website claims a minimum of 5 systems will be available at each store with a limit of 1 per customer.
