    We have ~70 of these to setup over the summer. Seem like decent laptops.

    Just had 16 delivered... The other HP 6720s laptops i setup recently were very nice and a breeze to "upgrade" to XP Pro

    Using an HP6820s and its great - like the "no clip" for the lid closure too
    Cos its a 17" widescreen laptop it comes with a numpad too!

    Nice design - though lack of a HDD Activity LED is a minor irritation at times.

    Had one of these on trial- not much good for us as the wireless button cant be disabled else you get kids turning the wireless off all the time

    Yes you can, you open it up and put some tape over 1 of the pins on the wireless card. Works for us on all laptops we put in laptop trolleys, just a matter of finding the pin of that model of intel wireless card.
