Included in the box are a quick-start guide, a generic user guide, and two manuals to get you acquainted with the Image Zone and Media Center software. The system also ships with WinDVD 5 and Microsoft Works 8. The system does not include a monitor or speakers, which can drive the price up more than $1,000 if you're in need of one or both.īundled software is abundant the Pavilion a1250n comes with HP's Image Zone Plus software, which lets you edit and organize photos, and Sonic's Digital Media Plus with LightScribe for CD and DVD burning and labeling. There's room inside the tool-free chassis to add two PCI cards (three, if you remove the preinstalled modem card). If you're considering adding a TV tuner card to better integrate the a1250n into a home entertainment center, also think about investing in a high-end sound card, as the integrated controller does not provide optical outputs. Instead, the a1250n comes with a shiny silver multimedia keyboard and matching scroll mouse, which is of the nearly antique roller-ball variety. Also missing is an IR remote and a wireless keyboard and mouse. Unfortunately, HP does not offer a TV tuner card with this system, despite the fact that it ships with XP Media Center Edition. The good news is that there is an empty x16 PCI Express slot, if you decide you want to boost 3D performance by adding a high-end graphics card, such as the GeForce 7800GTX. Gaming enthusiasts will be disappointed with the a1250n's integrated ATI Radeon Xpress 200 graphics solution, although it will suffice for older, less-demanding 3D games, such as Unreal Tournament 2004. In the opposite direction, the eMachines T6524 costs $300 less than the Pavilion a1250n but was 16 percent slower on SysMark. It trailed the much more expensive Dell XPS 400, which features the Intel Pentium D 840 chip, by only 4 percent. Its score of 208 on CNET Labs' SysMark 2004 application benchmark bested the results from the pricier Sony VAIO RC11G, which uses a dual-core Pentium D 830 chip. The system boasts significant muscle for its price range in handling general home and office applications. The Pavilion a1250n is powered by AMD's entry-level dual-core CPU, the 2.0GHz Athlon 64 X2 3800+.

You also get 1GB of memory running at 400MHz, and you can upgrade aftermarket to 4GB of RAM. Sadly, there's no room for a second hard drive.

The 250GB Hitachi DeskStar hard drive is more than adequate for storing digital photos and music files but will fill up quickly if you're archiving lots of large video files. The system also comes with a 9-in-1 media-card reader that accepts nearly every type of flash memory card. LightScribe drives can burn grayscale text and images onto specially coated CD and DVD media, although the discs are generally pricey ($5.99 for a five-pack of DVD+R discs), and the burning process is slow.

The HP z555 Digital Entertainment Center ups the ante further in terms of both price and overall design.Ī double-layer DVD burner with LightScribe technology is paired with a standard 16X DVD-ROM drive.

Overall, the a1250n presents an attractive, clean appearance, but if a true living-room PC is what you're after, the slightly more expensive HP Media Center m7260n Photosmart PC includes a TV tuner, a remote control, and HP's handy Personal Media Drive dock. Rear-mounted connections include four additional USB 2.0 ports, another FireWire port, an Ethernet connection, and audio jacks for the integrated six-channel audio controller. Hidden behind another white sliding panel are two USB 2.0 ports, audio jacks, and a six-pin FireWire port. The Pavilion a1250n is housed in a silver midtower case with glossy-white, hinged optical-drive covers that, while stylish, are flimsy and prone to snapping off with a misplaced knee or shin under your desk.
