You can read Blu-ray discs, and read and write traditional DVDs and CDs. Once you use high-def DVDs, you'll never go back! Note: you'll need a dedicated graphics card for maximum performance.
Premium dual-core processor
The Pavilion HDX features a dual-core processor for mobile computing—Intel's most energy-efficient performance processor, with enhanced multitasking responsiveness that is 64-bit enabled. The HDX comes with 2GB memory to support this powerful processing, or you can upgrade to 4GB for the ultimate in performance.
Stylish design

If multiple people use one computer, each can use their fingerprint to log on to their own account.
Mega entertainment
The ATI Mobility Radeon HD2600 XT, which supports DirectX 10 graphics, delivers exceptional performance with visually intense applications and 3-D games. It uses ATI HyperMemory memory management technology to support 512MB graphics memory for superior visuals. The spacious, 20.1" WSXGA+ dual-lamp Ultra BrightView widescreen supplies brilliant, high-def playback and Web surfing at the same time. A dual hinge lets you tilt the screen and move it forward or backward for optimal comfort.

And the integrated audio processor supports the latest external PC speaker solutions for true HD audio with surround sound. Lastly, there's an integrated dock for the mobile remote.
Great for games and movies
The built-in HD DVD-ROM drive provides ultra-realistic high-def playback. You'll get astonishing 1080p resolution when viewing on an HD TV with an HDMI notebook connection. HD DVD resolution is far superior to that of regular DVDs, and even superior to what you'll see on most HD TVs.

You can use ATSC to receive broadcast HDTV transmissions, or switch to analog for access to cable or satellite TV programming.
