It has a HDMI port. The HP thread OP and HP site are wrong.

is it...then i'll check it with the model in croma tmro....how about e sata....and does the processor speed enough 2.0 ghz compared to core i5 2410M having 2.3 Ghz ( upto 2.9 turbo boost )

Quad core versus Dual core. I would recommend the i7 for Maya.

Thanx all

I got it from a dealer in chennai.
But its there in croma which cost a 500 more (with no accessories )

Actually i bargained a lot with that dealer, They initially charged me Rs.51,500

Now i had got it at 48 k
