A review of the HP Pavilion dv7-3080us laptop has been posted over at PC Magazine. 'The Pavilion dv7-3080us features HP's standard Pavilion ID, with an imprint design on the lid and keyboard deck, chrome edges, and all surfaces buffed to a high gloss. The chassis is a deep brown color (HP calls it Espresso) with thin, curved pinstripes running across it, which are occasionally interrupted with a round shapes that look either like bubbles or, as my colleague John Delaney classified them, crop circles. I like the look of this particular Pavilion, but overall I'm not a fan of HP's current laptop design. I think its Pavilions are over designed, with too much polish added. The glossy surfaces look nice on store shelves, but they'll be covered in fingerprints and smudges by the end of the first day of owning one.'
