The Pavilion Elite m9160f Desktop Computer from Hewlett-Packard is a great computer for today's media-savvy families. The computer is not only powerful enough to work with digital photos from your digital camera, movies from your digital video camera and music from your MP3 player; it is also a Digital Video Recorder (DVR) that will automatically record HDTV television programs for you and store them right on the hard drive. You can either watch television right on the computer or burn recorded programs to DVD to watch in your home theater.
The computer comes with multimedia software for DVD and CD burning. It also includes Microsoft Works for productivity and Norton Internet Security with a 60-day update subscription for protection from viruses and spyware.
Bringing digital photos into your computer is easy with the integrated 15-in-1 digital media card reader, and you can capture digital video through either of the two conveniently located FireWire ports. You can easily connect peripheral devices to the computer via the six installed USB 2.0 ports.
Getting your media out of the computer is easy too; the PC's SuperMulti DVD Burner with LightScribe not only allows you to burn DVDs and CDs, you can even use it to print labels directly on the surface of a LightScribe disc.
The system is powered by a 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Quad Processor Q6700 CPU and boasts 4GB of RAM, 720GB hard drive capacity, a HD DVD ROM and LightScribe SuperMulti DVD Burner, an NTSC/ATSC TV tuner, and nVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT graphics. Windows Vista Home Premium (64-Bit) is the platform that ties all this hardware and software together, providing a great computer for the digital savvy family, backed by the Hewlett-Packard name.
