The UF Vista image is not yet available to be pre-loaded by the manufacturer, but will be offered by both HP and Lenovo/GovConnection.  Testing is expected to be complete and the image available for download around the first week of June. The image contains settings that were determined to be common and appropriate for the UF environment, as well as software that is used in the majority of campus locations such as Office 2007, McAfee Virus Scan and Acrobat Reader. The image will be provided to our major hardware vendors and we anticipate it being available as a preinstalled option on systems ordered by UF departments. Please monitor http://vista.ad.ufl.edu for the latest information on the release of the UF Vista image.

HP Revised Bundles 5/31/07 pdf  xls       summary pdf  xls 

These are the final units for now. As HP releases new products (mainly on the mobility lines) the newer models will be added.  The Core 2 Duo dc7700s and Workstations will support Vista 64-bit, although the driver CD shipping with XP Professional systems only has the XP drivers.

The monitors are separated from the bundles and listed as a separate line item with a separate cost. Originally, the monitor was included in each build. Now you have your choice of a 24 or 19 widescreen monitor.

7200RPM drives were added as available as well as the requested XP Home OS. Where available, 7200RPM drives have been added--primarily in the desktop and the higher end notebooks.

The DVD burner drives usually come with Roxio software.

HP Personal Purchases for UF Faculty, Staff & Students

HP Shopping for Staff HP will extend the standard HP Shopping Academic Purchase Program (APP) program to FSU & UF. This program would be open to faculty, staff, administration, and officials. Standard discounts of up to 15% -- including 10% on printing supplies --are available and can typically be combined with HP Shopping and national promotions and rebates.  

HP Academic Purchase Program (APP) FAQ
pdf  (only "Home" models, not the models in UF bundles).
You have to register an acount at www.hpshopping.com/education.  Once you register and log-in, it should say Academic Purchase Program at the top. The APP discount doesn't apply to everything--look for APP icon attached to prices.

The HP UF Bundles are not available on HP APP program for personal purchase.  The xw4400 Workstations don't appear at all.  CDW-G may be able to order the same configurations and re-sell to faculty, staff, and students.
