Don't expect heavy duty performance from this notebook
The HP zv6200 has widescreen, bigger-than-average memory capacity, weighs almost 4kg, has a solid feel to it, but, sadly, I was disappointed - the hardware is not built for intensive usage i.e. > 15 hours every day, heavy duty graphics work, etc. Either the hardware heats up or the battery does. The battery itself lasts just about as much as any other battery sold in the market.
