Links? Where? Seriously people for the price point this isn't a horrible deal, its not the best you will ever find on woot!, but I challenge all these posters to back up their comments with links to the much better deals.

My fish are more exciting than this wootoff

Yes, You can see my rant against HP a few woots go.

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.

Enough already with used computers. That's what eBay is for. Day after day some crappy H-P computer even the company wants to orphan. Get more creative, WOOT, and more useful while you're still in our scan.

If anything, I'd be most concerned that it is a refurbished HP.

Refurished my be better then you thing. I'd be the EXTREMELY concerned that it is an HP

How funny it is to be looking at the laptop I am on as it is being "wooted off"!! BTW, I do like this 'puter!

That processor actually ranks lower at pass mark and most would say amd"s graphics solution is better. After tax its over $100 more.

Refurbished is sometimes better than new. I'd be EXTREMELY concerned that it is an HP

Best Buy

Not a "much better" deal, but why get a refurb when you can get the exact same thing brand new for the exact same price?

I will never, ever buy another HP laptop... worst POC I've ever owned and terrible support from HP.

This would be just about perfect, if only it had Blu-Ray. Where's my Blu-Ray?!

Two thumbs up on your comment!

Wonder if woot-offs would go better if there was a "Draw Something" or other social game in the community area.

friend purchased this exact model brand new at Staples about a month ago for $399... not that I would have recommended it then, either.

Yes mine has too, it shows the sanyo digital sound recorder, but there are also no stats for the current hour on sales. Woot.com having issues?

I don't know about their low end carp but I've called HP twice about minor issues with an HP Envy laptop and both times the support was absolutely stellar. I know, I was as surprised as everyone else! There was zero wait time; just stated the product name to the automated phone system, heard a couple clicks and immediately got a friendly and helpful support agent in the USA. First time was just to register the warranty so that was kind of a freebie for good support, but the second time I had a battery problem. He didn't make me jump through any hoops, and advance-exchanged a new battery with a $1 refundable core charge to return the old one.
I called on a Thursday late afternoon, and the battery got here by 10am the next morning and it fixed the problem.
If you pay for better products and support you get it. If you buy the cheapest stuff based on price alone, you get what you pay for (and I think that's true with most companies, not just HP; the difference with Apple is they basically just don't sell the low-end stuff so they don't have to support it either).
HP business notebooks and servers are solid too (typing this on anold nc6400 circa 2006 that works as well today as when it was new; actually better since I replaced the hard drive with an SSD, even though the original drive never did fail, and did a fresh OS install).
