hp notebook zd800

Archived from groups: comp.sys.laptops (More info?)

Hi, folk,

Think about to buy a hp notebook zd8000.

It only have Intel Petium 4. has no Intel centrino technique. What
would I miss if I go without centrino?

I like the TV Tuner idea. Is it really can turn PC into a TV? Do I
have to pay fee for TV service? Does it have to be cable service? Does
it have antenna or it has place to connect an antenna to receive basic
free channels off the air? Do I have to have Windows XP Media Center
2005 to configure TV?

It has "54g(TM) Integ. Broadcom 802.11b/g WLAN & Bluetooth" as internet
connection. I am not sure it can serve as a 56k modem for dial up
service. Or if I want dial up, I have to order a modem on top of
"54g(TM) Integ. Broadcom 802.11b/g WLAN & Bluetooth". What is "54g(TM)
Integ. Broadcom 802.11b/g WLAN & Bluetooth" and what it can do?
Thank you very much for your response. lijie
