Intel Core2Duo is good. ViiV is marketing hype. You can ignore it, or read the market-speak here: Quote:
Intel® Viiv™ technology is Intel's premier brand for consumer PCs designed for digital entertainment.
PCs based on Intel® Viiv™ technology are built with Intel's high performance dual-core processors, chipsets, networking silicon, and special software.These PCs are complemented by online entertainment services and applications that have been verified to work with Intel Viiv technology - enabling you to access great content like movies, music, videos and even games online. You select what you enjoy and control when you enjoy it.
Yawn.
The rest of the specs are great. Not a bad purchase. Hope the file transfer completes succesfully.

File transer went OK. Five hours later anyway....
Now I get to learn how to use Vista and get rid of all this HP crap that's loaded and reconfigure everthing. Now I remember why I waited so long to upgrade...
The machine's fast.

Good to hear that the transfer went well. I've owned a couple of HP including the one I'm using now. Both performed very well. Congrats on your new toy!!
