HP HDX18-1005ea 18.4in Notebook

@ Chris C - I can't say for sure, but my current laptop has an 8600M GT 256MB compared to the slightly faster 9600M GT 512MB in this notebook, although that may depend on whether it uses GDDR2 or GDDR3 memory (on this note I would like to see this spec added to the feature table as many nVidia mobile cards offer both versions and can make quite a bit of difference in the performance stakes - GPU-Z is a useful utility: http://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/)

Back on topic, BF2 is quite a few years old now, so my laptop was able to cope quite well with it if I remember correctly, even at mostly high settings, but you will likely have to turn the resolution down a couple of notches. The only games my card struggles with is anything made in the last couple of years or so, which I just play on my desktop anyway. HTH ;)

Please refrain from buying any HP Laptop. HP Products are technically flawed and HP never stands behind its products. Service is too poor and one shouldnot expect any replacement of parts..in most cases HP alleges that the laptop has been tampered with, screws missing, water damage or coffee/coke dropped inside Hardware parts(CPU). Tech. Support is run by liars and idiots stationed at Bangalore, INDIA. They are trained to take down wrong complaints. They never call back and never replace a product with manufacturing defects. SO PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM HP!! and warn all friends and family. HP is improving its profits and bottomline by giving poor post sales service and technically flawed products. Even a mail to Mark Hurd falls on deaf ears....Hope HP mends its ways before its too late.

@ Anjana whilst I appreciate that you have obviously suffered frustration with HP's service shouldn't you back up this rant with some form evidence rather than just accusations.
