I was at Walmart tonight picking up a few things when I decided to check out the laptops in the electronics department. I desperately need a new laptop as my Dell Mini is toast. I had it checked out this week and found out the motherboard needs to be replaced. Basically, that means it would be smarter and cheaper to just buy a new one. My dream computer is an Apple MacBook Pro, but that is not in the cards (aka budget) right now.
Then, that's where I saw the most adorable, perfect laptop for me. It's just the perfect size and it has everything I need- It's the HP Garden Dreams Laptop.
I am a sucker for a cute design.
What I love most (besides the design) is the size. It's 14.5" and lightweight- perfect for traveling. It actually looks very similar to a MacBook. I've never owned an HP, but the reviews are excellent. It's $598, which means I need to make some money fast.
P.S. I have advertising available!

LOL---I'm 36, a mom of two, a Navy vet, and now that my previous laptop died on me right after Christmas---I also saw the HP Garden Dreams at Wal-Mart and fell in love :). Good to know I'm not the only one!
Many blessings to you and yours 🙂

I bought my daughter a refurbished HP Garden Dream unit at Wal-Mart for an unbelievable $458 but have had nothing but trouble since using it. The laptop continually freezes after going into sleep mode.
I've been calling HP Support and to their credit, they've been very accessible but nothing they have suggested has fixed the problems. I should have stayed away from the REFURBISHED model and gone with a brand new one like you did.

In response to Tony L, we bought our daughter a brand new HP Garden Dream for Christmas. She was in love with it just like all the others but she has been having the same problem that your refurbished computer had. So I hope this will ease your mind a little in knowing that the brand new computer is doing the exact same thing. I am fighting with HP about getting a new computer since it is only 6 months old. The fight continues!!
Thanks for sharing all of your information. Even though it has problems, it still is a very cute computer.
