Reviews of the HP Pavilion Elite m9500y
-
CNET Review
The Good: Decent component selection; built-in Wi-Fi.
The Bad: Other desktops have better components for less money; forgettable chassis design with two proprietary drive bays; smaller case means less room for expansion.
The Bottom Line: We can't complain about the HP Pavilion Elite m9500y in its current configuration--it offers a speedy processor, plenty of memory and storage, and even includes Wi-Fi. Unfortunately, the big picture shows other manufacturers like Dell and Gateway that offer better deals to fit your specific computing needs.
