ooooh,

I'm quite liking this

HP Pavillion DV9605 on offer for £499 (reduced from £699)

Love the widescreen at home

Not sure if its the laptop or Vista.....but turning the thing on/off is like a light switch....on, is instantly to desktop...off, turns it off

I've probably been living in the dark ages, but having a silent lappy that boots without me making a coffee in the meantime is a joy

are you definately turning it off? the power button on the start menu just sends it to sleep, when you press the power again it wakes it up. to turn it off you have to press the little arrow next to it and select shut down
