When it comes to the keyboard itself, however, there are no grounds for complaint. Its keys are as big as those on a desktop keyboard. The keys also deliver a good feel and touch, all of which add up to an entirely positive typing experience.

One thing that makes everyday use of the Pavilion dv8000z much easier is the design touch whereby the symbols that mark its numerous ports and connectors on the exterior are also repeated on the top of the case. This means you can always see a label for each one without having to crane your neck to see what is on the side of the case.

Even the Pavilion dv8000z's status indicator lights can look cool.
