Video Card Shares with Physical RAM; USB Ports Tightly Spaced
The only significant problem with this computer was that the video card was sharing memory with the physical memory (RAM). This meant that the notebook actually had only 192 MB RAM of the original 256 MB RAM remaining for physical memory use. The only minor problem I found in this computer was that the USB ports were spaced too closely to the round AC power...

Not bad for games,but slow speed for all else
I have this same laptop i got at wal-mart although it only has a 30gb hard drive(yet another draw back).When you actually go into the system settings it only has 192mb of onboard RAM to run windows with,64mb of it going to the powerful graphics card that it has. So yes unless your an avid gamer pass this one up,but if so then you can play any of the latest PC games out...

This review is from: HP Pavilion ze4805us Laptop (2.133 GHz Athlon, 256 MB RAM, 60 GB Hard Drive, DVD/CD-RW Drive) (Personal Computers)
The only significant problem with this computer was that the video card was sharing memory with the physical memory (RAM). This meant that the notebook actually had only 192 MB RAM of the original 256 MB RAM remaining for physical memory use.The only minor problem I found in this computer was that the USB ports were spaced too closely to the round AC power jack. This would be important if you were trying to plug in a wide USB device, such as the iPod Shuffle or a variety of other MP3 stick players. Besides these two issues, the HP Pavilion ze4805us is a very quiet, reliable, and decent-performing computer with excellent value.

Upgrade the ram. If you add a 256 stick, it will allow you to allocate 128 megs to video, and it actually runs cs well :)

So yes unless your an avid gamer pass this one up,but if so then you can play any of the latest PC games out there with no trouble.Even though its clocked at 2.1ghz(processor) it still doesnt help when opening regular programs in windows because it has a bit of lag to it.Although this can be rectified with a good 256 stick of extra RAM,if your willing to do it,then its a pretty nice little machine.And btw shoppers beware of the Averatec at the wal-marts its nice,fast,and a good looking computer but the DVD/Burner CD-RW's are horrible for going bad.
