I came across this and usually I’m pretty nice about what other people think but wow….the reviewer here is just off the ball completely.

First of all, let me say that for you to ‘prefer’ this laptop over the 2614u is pretty much incredible.

First of all, this laptop has no N wifi, which means to keep up with your current set up you’d have to either buy a usb adapter or go inside. Second of all, you’re missing the 1Gb ethernet which while not necessary for all, is nice to have on something that can’t be easily upgraded. Then there’s the screen size which while not a deal breaker, kind of sucks. 1280 vs. 1366 is a big difference despite the seemingly small change in numbers.
The huge issue for me however, is that you’re recommending an Intel onboard chipset for graphics over an ati hd3200 which are as different as the sea and a river.

Granted, the HP would be great AT the same price as the gateway, but with stuff missing like N wifi and a more potent gfx card, I think at the price or even 100 more, the HP just isn’t up to spec.

But what about the video card…

Isn’t it a little low in memory?

Like 64Mb???

Robert, is this the "SUPER-G WIRELESS PC CARD WG511T"? I yes, this is bad luck, because that card is a PCI card, and the DV5-1235dx has only a PCI-Express slot. The express is smaller than the regular PCI slot. You should probably go with a USB adapter.
