Package contents

Along with the computer comes:

-    External optical drive with 2x USB 2.0 ports
-    2GB SD flash card
-    Driver and installation media
-    120 Watts charger
-    Manuals

The notebook ships with the standards like installation media, manuals and power supply. In addition to those you get an external DVD drive, which complements the notebook well as it has no integrated drive. As if that was not enough, there is also an SD card. What exactly HP intends with this is unknown – perhaps it would have been nicer with a USB key instead.
