HP Pavilion dv7-1240-us 2.2GHz AMD Turion X2 Dual Core Notebook w/ Webcam & HDMI – Bronze -
Expanding on the sophisticated elegance of the current line, the new HP Pavilion dv7-1448DX is defined by fluid, modern lines and metalized finishes with surprising innovations inside and out. High-gloss HP Imprint finish in bronze and chrome now encases all surfaces visible during normal use for greater durability. The powerful dual core AMD Turion X2 RM-75 2.2GHz processor, 4GB DDR2 RAM, 320GB HDD, DVD/CD+-RW, 17″ High Definition WXGA+ Display, and Vista Home Premium 64-bit make this an ideal choice. The grid-like pattern provides subtle contrast to the liquid appearance of the metallic finish, giving her a stunning and attractive appearance. The streamlined look is enhanced with a color-matched keyboard and touchpad. And touch media controls light up and become visible only when the system is powered on further enhancing the clean appearance. HP’s mobile products have won coveted International Red Dot, iF and CES Innovation design awards and been recognized by other leading design institutions.
Providing more choices than ever, QuickPlay enables access to DVDs, videos, photos, music, karaoke, games, and Internet TV at the touch of a button.

Sorry, I never asked a question! Is this laptop anygood? Most of them have bad reviews bcuz the operating system corrupted which was windows vista 64bit, but this one comes with windows 7. This is an entertainment laptop, but I am NOT A GAMER AT ALL! this unit will be used for school work, Photoshop, power point presentation, and web surfing. Users also had problems with the fan and the computer overheating… Sorry for this post being sooooo long, but is this a good buy? Btw, it is factory refurbished, not by HP , but by a local tech team, and is $445 flat, no shipping charge or tax. What do u think?
It has a 30 day warranty. Do you think it is a good buy? or can you recommend what would be a good computer for Photoshop, college work, power points, and websurfing?
mariok answers:
The DV series has always had issues with the VGA overheating, most commonly in the 6000 and 9000 series.
You should note that the waffle says it comes with the Windows 7 upgrade disc from HP, it does not actually say it comes with W7 installed!
Specs wise it is pretty good, but you should also note that the waffle says nothing about warranty (unless you didn’t include it). If it has no warranty do not touch it, with a three month warranty you are still risking a fair bit but is better than none at all.

Illegals Are Destroying America – A Letter To Rep Tom Tancredo 1-9-4
The following letter was received by the heroic Congressman, Tom Tancredo, and posted on his site as part of ‘Tom’s Mailbag’…
My story.
I live in a world where I do not count. I am White. I am poor. I don’t have coalitions rallying for what I feel is important. I don’t have news reporters writing about “poor me”. But, I have views. I vote. I pay taxes. And, I know there are millions of people in America just like me.
I live next to a shelter built by politicians who are afraid to have an opinion about closing the border. Daily, 1,500 illegal Mexicans visit that shelter. It was supposed to keep these “poor” people from urinating and defecating on the streets. It didn’t. If I $hit on the street, I would get fined.
My home and vehicles have been broken into 22 times in 5 years. I stopped calling the police each time now, because they don’t come anyway. Instead, we bought a gun. Scared off the last illegal trying to steal our truck. He knew enough English to say, “Sorry”, as we pointed it at him. 3 months later, we still have a towel over the smashed driver’s side window. Last week, I was ordered to pay a $85.00 fine for a false alarm. Police showed up for THAT hearing. The police couldn’t find any criminal at my home when my home alarm sounded. I am curious how long police think bad guys “hang around” after an alarm has been triggered.
When I was rear ended in my car, the policeman said I would have to wait while he called for back -up. My baby was screaming. The police had no film in the camera. The back- up police had no fingerprinting ink, or film. The illegal had an ID, but the police said there was nothing that could be done. The illegal would just get another fake ID and would never show for court. He didn’t have insurance. The illegal who hit me said, “Sorry”, as he was walking away. He was free to go. I was free to pay the deductible on my car, and the chiropractor bills for my children and myself. If I drove without insurance and hurt someone or their possessions, I would be forced to pay for the damages.
My husband works 6 days a week as a framing contractor. He pays FICA, Social Security, State taxes, Federal taxes, General liability insurance, Workman’s comp insurance, and probably others that I don’t remember. His Workman’s Comp. just skyrocketed from $5,000 per year, to $28,000 per year. Now I ask you… WHERE are we to come up with an extra $23,000? We had NO CLAIMS! Should I take it from my food budget? We often go weeks without meat! Should it come from our clothing budget? We buy our clothes at thrift sales and Savers. How about our entertainment account? Does seeing a movie every month qualify?
My home insurance costs me $100.00 more yearly because I live on a border state. How long until Kansas becomes a border state?
I have had no medical insurance for years and years. I can’t afford it. At 33, I got cancer. My doctor told me to go to ACCHS. I don’t remember how to spell the state’s medical system, since they declined me. My husband ‘s company had no profit in 6 months, due to theft, and lack of laws at the time to force general contractor’s to pay . Without studying my receipts, I was declined. Interesting that the hundreds of illegal Mexicans standing in line, were being given food stamps, and medical care. They did not have social security numbers, and did not speak English. If you don’t believe me, look at the application DES uses yourself, spend 5 minutes at DES and remind yourself why you pay taxes. You won’t leave smiling.
Taxes. We fell behind 1 year. I contacted IRS and told them we want to make arrangements to pay. We now show the IRS EVERY thing we buy. From tampons to chewing gum-they see the receipt. For the next year, we will be scrutinized. For the next 5 years we will be audited. Maybe I should never have “done the right thing” and told them. Maybe I should change my name to Garcia.
My son cries nightly because his legs and arms hurt. He has cried for almost 7 years. My husband often walks on one leg because his back and leg pain is almost unbearable. Monthly, I have mini strokes. During those times, I lose the ability to speak well, and have seizures until I lose consciousness . We don’t really know what is wrong with any of us. We may never know. WE can’t afford a doctor. God forbid we need emergency services. 30% of the time, hospitals are on divert status, because there is no room. The illegals take their kids to ERs for colds and sore throats. I would only go if I lost a limb, or my heart gave out.
2 years ago, I announced to my family there would be no turkey for Thanksgiving. We would eat pasta and be thankful we were a family. My Catholic friend made arrangements for me to get a food box from her church.
I went, reluctantly. I drove up in my broken old van, and saw a lot full of new (stickers still attached), suburbans. My van was the worst vehicle there, and it hit me that I really was poor! I stood in line for 20 minutes amazed at the number of Mexicans taking box after box of food. When it was my turn, I had to show ID. I was told to leave. There wasn’t enough food for me to take a box. I looked around- there were boxes of food everywhere! For a minute I forgot I was White, and in their eyes, not deserving.
At church, our pastor reminds us to stay hopeful. I struggle to make sense of a system that has taken from me, and given to those who have more than I do.
Who will be my voice? Where is my coalition? I thought it was the leaders of America. I was wrong. They have sold out me and millions like me out. What’s worse…I don’t know why.

Problem is, I’d bet that alot of left wing bleeding heart moron’s that support illegals in this country haven’t heard enough of such stories in the streets nor do they give a damn. They’d probably shrug it off as something that isn’t the norm or just think it a lie without even having the guts to investigate it and see what the reality is for many poor people in the country. I have known people in this kind of dire need and the illegals have it far better off than they did. I can’t vouch for this one story, but I can vouch for those i’ve known. Red blooded American citizens and they aren’t even taken care of as much as these illegal bastards that are invading our country. Don’t give me poor immigrants escaping oppression. This country has a legal process for citizenship and for entry, it is no one’s fault but thier own that they decided to violate our laws and ignore the proper path.
The left have been some really cold hearted bastards for some time now and only worried about what they can get from it. They already tout they are better humanitarians than the right, even though that is a lie. They should read the book, Who Really Cares: America’s Charity Divide -Who Gives, Who Doesn’t, and Why It Matters by Arthur C. Brooks whom painstakingly documented many surveys proving it.
The left is corrrupt with power, politics and selfishness. Sure, there are those that aren’t, but not enough to make a real difference obviously in the real world. We still have media blaring lies about what a great job Obama is doing, we still have hack politicians lying to us and passing legislation against the will of the people and screwing Americans over. Where is the rallies and protests about a corrupt government ? Where is the reality of how bad many people have it and illegals are very much effecting American’s in dire need ? The lefties that are innocent do nothing, and the corrupt grab at more power.

mariok answers:
I looked it up (it took awhile, but I found it) and I don’t believe it. At best it’s grossly exaggerated, and at worst it’s a complete fabrication. Former Rep. Tancredo has built his political career around and on the subject of Illegal Immigration and dire warnings of America’s imminent destruction, we’re being overrun, The Democrats are giving the country away, etc., etc.
And along comes this heart-rending missive from the poor, downtrodden, salt-of-the-earth (White), struggling-to-survive, me-and-my-crying-babies-don’t-count Citizen of the Heartland, an honest-to-goodness Real American, with a list of woes that matches Tom Tancredo’s dire predictions item for item. It seemed tailor-made for the subject, and that’s probably what it was.
There is baloney like this emanating from both camps, Liberal and Conservative; but there are good ideas (and people) in both camps as well. Polarization impedes progress; the politicians who consistently get my vote are those who practice Bipartisanship. That is what got things done in this country when I was a younger man, and the almost complete lack of Bipartisanship is one of the main reasons nothing is getting done now.

Heck my neighbors that live right next door to me , were illegal Mexicans. Thanks to Wal-mart and Tyson. They sent trucks down to Mexico to pick them up. Gave them jobs and home loans.
My neighbors in general are good people, however it does not excuse the fact that the wife jumped the border when she was pregnant with her second child. Taking full advantage of the anchor baby thing.
I know darn well that they got food stamps and wic. They go to Mexico every summer for the WHOLE summer.And again at Christmas.And are building a house in Mexico. I know this because there children play with my children everyday and they have TOLD me that mommy save her money and uses the food stamp card so they have more money when they go to Mexico. It is all a bunch of Bull crap. For the last 3 winters my family of 5 have survived the winter on beans and cornbread. Sunday was the only day that we had actual meat. We have not had health insurance in over 6 yrs and when I applied for my 5 yr old daughter who desperately needs several eye surgeries . We were denied because my husband makes to much money by $20.00 a month. My children have not seen a Dentist in 6 yrs. Yet my neighbors children visit the dentist every six months and the daughter that is the same age as my youngest just got some new glasses..(State issued) We had to save for six months to afford our daughters glasses so she can see well enough to go to kindergarten.. This is Bull S.H.I.T and it needs to stop.
The children are great but the parents are very reserved and WILL not have much to do with us socially. These people go to church every Sunday. I think they are Hypocrites.
I have no Sympathy for ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.. Secure the BORDER and kick out all Illegals and there Children.. Sorry. I have my own family to think about. My family came here legally 150 yrs ago.

Illegals Are Destroying America – A Letter To Rep Tom Tancredo 1-9-4
The following letter was received by the heroic Congressman, Tom Tancredo, and posted on his site as part of ‘Tom’s Mailbag’…
My story.
I live in a world where I do not count. I am White. I am poor. I don’t have coalitions rallying for what I feel is important. I don’t have news reporters writing about “poor me”. But, I have views. I vote. I pay taxes. And, I know there are millions of people in America just like me.
I live next to a shelter built by politicians who are afraid to have an opinion about closing the border. Daily, 1,500 illegal Mexicans visit that shelter. It was supposed to keep these “poor” people from urinating and defecating on the streets. It didn’t. If I $hit on the street, I would get fined.
My home and vehicles have been broken into 22 times in 5 years. I stopped calling the police each time now, because they don’t come anyway. Instead, we bought a gun. Scared off the last illegal trying to steal our truck. He knew enough English to say, “Sorry”, as we pointed it at him. 3 months later, we still have a towel over the smashed driver’s side window . Last week, I was ordered to pay a $85.00 fine for a false alarm. Police showed up for THAT hearing. The police couldn’t find any criminal at my home when my home alarm sounded. I am curious how long police think bad guys “hang around” after an alarm has been triggered.
When I was rear ended in my car, the policeman said I would have to wait while he called for back -up. My baby was screaming. The police had no film in the camera. The back- up police had no fingerprinting ink, or film . The illegal had an ID, but the police said there was nothing that could be done. The illegal would just get another fake ID and would never show for court. He didn’t have insurance. The illegal who hit me said, “Sorry”, as he was walking away. He was free to go. I was free to pay the deductible on my car, and the chiropractor bills for my children and myself. If I drove without insurance and hurt someone or their possessions, I would be forced to pay for the damages.
My husband works 6 days a week as a framing contractor. He pays FICA, Social Security , State taxes, Federal taxes, General liability insurance, Workman’s comp insurance, and probably others that I don’t remember. His Workman’s Comp. just skyrocketed from $5,000 per year, to $28,000 per year. Now I ask you… WHERE are we to come up with an extra $23,000? We had NO CLAIMS! Should I take it from my food budget? We often go weeks without meat! Should it come from our clothing budget? We buy our clothes at thrift sales and Savers. How about our entertainment account? Does seeing a movie every month qualify?
My home insurance costs me $100.00 more yearly because I live on a border state. How long until Kansas becomes a border state?
I have had no medical insurance for years and years. I can’t afford it. At 33, I got cancer. My doctor told me to go to ACCHS. I don’t remember how to spell the state’s medical system, since they declined me. My husband ‘s company had no profit in 6 months, due to theft, and lack of laws at the time to force general contractor’s to pay . Without studying my receipts, I was declined. Interesting that the hundreds of illegal Mexicans standing in line, were being given food stamps, and medical care. They did not have social security numbers, and did not speak English. If you don’t believe me, look at the application DES uses yourself, spend 5 minutes at DES and remind yourself why you pay taxes. You won’t leave smiling.
Taxes. We fell behind 1 year. I contacted IRS and told them we want to make arrangements to pay. We now show the IRS EVERY thing we buy. From tampons to chewing gum-they see the receipt. For the next year, we will be scrutinized. For the next 5 years we will be audited. Maybe I should never have “done the right thing” and told them. Maybe I should change my name to Garcia.
My son cries nightly because his legs and arms hurt. He has cried for almost 7 years. My husband often walks on one leg because his back and leg pain is almost unbearable. Monthly, I have mini strokes. During those times, I lose the ability to speak well, and have seizures until I lose consciousness . We don’t really know what is wrong with any of us. We may never know. WE can’t afford a doctor. God forbid we need emergency services. 30% of the time, hospitals are on divert status, because there is no room.

Where I am from, it is really bad. They are EVERYWHERE and commit crimes continuously. My sister’s car was broken into 4 times in one year. There has been a HUGE upswing in rapes, robberies and murders and the description is always “Hispanic male.” A dead Hispanic male was found floating in the pond at the apartment complex where I lived a few years ago and other ones are found all the time everywhere. MS-13 is very bad here and gang-related crime is ridiculous. People are afraid to go outside at night. The police will not do anything because there is nothing to do.
I had a serious health issue a few years ago and my husband had to stop working to take care of our son who was a baby because I was in and out of the hospital for months. We tried to get assistance (which we are entitled to as working, tax-paying American citizens) and were repeatedly turned away because the money was gone. We do NOT live in a poor area (that’s why illegals come here) and the money was gone. One of the times I was leaving the social services office(having to WALK and push my baby in a stroller because we did not have a car), a Hispanic woman I’d seen filling out the application for assistance came out of the building behind me with her approval paperwork, got into a white Cadillac Escalade & drove off. We eventually moved from our apartment at one place because there were 12 Hispanic people living in a 2 bedroom apartment next door and after they moved in, our apartment became so infested with roaches and bedbugs that we could not live there anymore. We had to leave all of our furniture behind because it was infested and could only take our clothing.
I also worked at a grocery store for a little while and it absolutely disgusted me when they would come in and pay for their food with foodstamps, then for the non-food items the husband would pull out a wad of money. And I mean a WAD, like barely able to fold it over huge. I saw that every single day.
The people who tell you these stories like the one above are not lying. They are not exagerrating. It IS a crisis and something has got to be done.

And No!
This is not an E-mail hoax.
I, Sci Fi Fan Revolutions, was the first person to post this woman’s story off the City-Data site onto Yahoo Answers.
From there it was copied to other sites by various others with different agandas.
The original is still on City-Data.
Look it up if you don’t belive me!

Black people are suffering from the continuous flow of illegal and legal immigration into this country as well. Neither Democrats or Republicans seem to care enough to stop the current administration from issuing out work visas even though the people currently here are experiencing high unemployment rates. It is starting to seem like a deliberate attempt to increase unemployment and decrease wages.
