4 out of 5 stars The Great Leap Forward   July 2, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Processor, RAM, hard drive capacity, video & sound cards certain to meet most requirements, even those of modest gamers or video hobbyists. Compact case fits nicely right on your desktop.

Transition from Win98SE to Vista was an exercise in surprise. Bottom line is Vista works fine, and the Premium Home Edition is worth it if only to get the cool 3D Chess game.

Included software bundle & HP system utilities are what you'd expect- nothing special to worry about- and all removable/ replaceable as you see fit.

Everything worked right out of the box. What's not in the box though are things like adapter cables for your sound system or DVD's to make system disks. Visit HP's site for info on this stuff.



5 out of 5 stars Sweet!   June 30, 2008
Great computer!
Wow this is so much nicer than my previous computer which was state of the art a few years ago but had become impossibly slow. This machine works fast and its so small.
I haven't figured out how to use everything, but what I have investigated is pretty cool. Plus, the ad lists that it comes with 3GB of RAM but actually comes with 4GB. The graphics card is something that might need upgrading; if that's important to you you may want to look at another version of HP.

Shipping was nice too. [...]

Perfect!



5 out of 5 stars so far, so good   June 19, 2008
Great so far. I've been running this PC for about 4 weeks. I like that it's small. It runs well. No complaints so far. Great value for money.


5 out of 5 stars Slimline S3430f for Home Theater   June 18, 2008
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I have owned the Slimline S3430f for about 3 weeks now and have been impressed with the performance of this computer. It has a small form factor and can be mounted horizontially so it fits well in my home theater credenza. It is connected via HDMI to my Onkyo TX-SR805 receiver and then to a 50" LG plasma TV.

I have played Blu-Ray, HD DVD and standard DVD's on this system. So far I've only had one disk that was difficult to play but I was able to get it to work. I have a 5.1 sound system and it relays both Digital Dolby and DTS signals. Have not yet used high definition audio but that requires a 7.1 speaker set up on my receiver.

I have ordered WIN DVD 9 Plus Blu-Ray software. I am using the trial version of WIN DVD 9 now - its All2HD upconverting for standard DVD is incredible, better than my Oppo DVD player. The included HP DVD software is a stripped down version of Power DVD but the latest verion of PDVD will not play HD DVD disks unless you hack it.

I have also loaded over 150 music CD's on the sytem in WMA lossless format - good quality sound playback on the HP S3430F via Windows Media Player. First time I have had most of my music on computer and it really makes it a lot easier to access. Big benefit that was not considered when I bought the computer.

Its also fun to use the system to surf the net on the big screen. The S3430F does NOT include a wireless keyboard and mouse so I had to buy them separately - IOMEGA offers a 2.4 gigahertz model that works from up to 33 feet away. HP should have included something like this given that the system is designed for home theater and remote access is critical.

All in all I have enjoyed using the system. Lots of RAM, good sized hard drive, Windows Vista 64 Bit plus quad core AMD chip make it plenty fast and able to multi-task easily.

Fast and takes up a minimum of space. The Vista OS in this one seems to be improved vs. the almost identical model I purchased for my wife at Christmas.
