The HP Pavilion dv1000 blends an array of digital entertainment features into a powerful notebook PC. The overall form factor design is clean and sophisticated. When closed the laptop looks and feels as though it is protected by a metallic silver outer shell. On the inside, high polished surfaces and lighting effects showcase the notebook's digital entertainment qualities. One of the impressive entertainment features of this notebook is the incorporation of HP QuickPlay, which allows the user to watch movies and listen to music, without booting up Windows. Additionally, the dv1000 also comes with a thin remote that is approximately the footprint of a credit card which can be used in either QuickPlay or Windows mode and stored in the PC card slot when it is not being used.
