Editorial Review:
Ultra-affordable but lacking the power and perks of a mid- or high-level unit, the HP Pavilion a210n Desktop PC is built for folks who don't want or don't need to drop a lot of dough on state-of-the-art equipment. Distinct from the entry-level Pavilion a200n by virtue of its larger hard disk and DVD playing capabilities, the Pavilion a210n won't appease those who constantly strain their computer with processor-intensive applications or the latest 3-D games, but is otherwise a solid choice for the budget-conscious user.
At the heart of the Pavilion a210n lies a 2.5 GHz Intel Celeron processor. HP has matched this budget-conscious CPU with 256 MB of PC2100 DDR SDRAM, an integrated Intel Extreme graphics chipset with 64 MB of shared (not dedicated) memory, and a surprisingly large 80 GB hard disk. Other data handling tools include a 3.5-inch diskette drive for older or smaller applications and backup needs, a CD-RW drive through which you can play and burn audio CDs and archive information, and a DVD-ROM drive for watching movies.
The Pavilion a210n package does not include a display or speakers, nor does it feature an IEEE 1394 FireWire port (normally used for fast data movement to and from external devices such as digital camcorders). It is equipped with a half dozen high-speed USB 2.0 ports for speedy interaction with plug and play peripherals, a two-button PS/2 scrolling mouse and a convenient HP Multimedia keyboard. Connectivity options include a low-speed 56K modem and a 10/100Base-T networking interface for high-speed e-communications.
The impressive bundled software package features such useful applications as WordPerfect Productivity Pack 2002, WordPerfect 10 and Quattro Pro 10, Intuit Quicken New Users Edition, InterVideo's WinDVD DVD player, and the Windows XP Home Edition operating system.
Hewlett-Packard has given the concept of value a completely new look with the HP Pavilion PC. Combining a dependable, high-speed processor with a stylish, compact, all-new chassis design, it delivers a price/performance balance that is ideal for first-time PC buyers and those who want an inexpensive second computer. There is plenty of room to grow, because this design allows you to add features, as your computing needs change, boosting performance and expanding your multimedia possibilities in the process.

Rating:  - This is what I call a budget multimedia computer!!!
This is a great multimedia computer for the person who is on a budget.My Dad got the pentium4 procceser model.Anyway sometimes it works somtimesit wont't beacause the dsl won't connect.Plus his other computer which is a Pentium2 computer is faster than his new oneso his pentium 2 model from HP and my dell computer are the fastest five computers in the house.But now my Dad is trying to fix his p4 computer because partition magic does not want to work.
Rating:  - You get what you pay for... though in this case you get less
This is not a budget conscious machine - HP evidently decided to make up on the price by loading this machine with so much annoying proprietary garbage that the computer constantly is lighting up with my network connection trying to send information about me to HP or someone else who paid for space on my desktop. Given the technical characteristics of the machine, I expected it to be a reasonably fast machine for what my child needs it for - basic web surfing, email, etc. We have several much older ...

Rating: - Excellent Performance for the Price.
I got my computer over a year ago and have had no problems with it. The HP handles anything I ask it to do. In 2003, like tons of other computer users, I had difficulties with viruses and trojan horses, but, after switching to Mozilla, this problem became a thing of the past and has nothing to do with the PC I now use. I've found that for photography and word files this model is ideal and offers a high rate of speed. I usually have about 10 windows open, 2 Word files, and MSN messenger and yet I ... Read More
Rating: - Not Bad
This computer is not bad at all. Yes, there is no recovery disks included and there is no firewire port, but where are you going to get the 48x cd burner and the dvd player for this price? Hp did do a mistake when they sold these computers without recovery disks, but its not just this model, its ALL the models they are selling. In this computer, there is part of the hard drive that is for recovery so the only thing ou have to do if u want to make a backup, just click and drag. Another thing, many reviewers ... Read More
Rating: - This Computer Sucks
This system is very slow mainly because it is loaded with tons of spyware that hogs system resources. You think popups are bad on the internet, just wait until you get them when you're not even connected to the web. That's right, HP has advertisments sliding in from the side of the screen at all times. This system also monitors your web habits and sends info back to HP.
Are you interseted in getting rid of the operating system (a proprietary version of XP made especially for HP that is slow as hell), ... Read More
