HP targets the dorm-room crowd with their m7580n Media Centre PC. DenGuru takes a closer look to see if it lives up to its price tag.

I lol'ed real hard at the 3591 score that it made in PC Mark 05...I find that computer to be a VERY large waste of money, the only things that are mildly decent are the processor and the hard drive, everything else I think is just crap stuffed in there to make ppl think that they are buying a good computer I mean who are they kidding trying to pawn off that DDR2 533 on ppl, that ram is utterly worthless when it comes down to anything. Well i could say more but that wouldnt be nice so ill just stop here. The point is it is not worth that much...PERIOD.

Thanks for the post p8ntslinger676.

Yeah I think most enthusiests could squeeze a bit more out of a cool grand than HP has with the m7580n, but in it's defense, this particular rig is built for people that are looking for something fairly basic with a few extras thrown in. I'd guess that the target demographic includes mostly people who are thinking about replacing their PII rig. :D
