Just ordered HP Probook

[ambush510]

Hi, I just ordered HP ProBook C9K69UT with i3 processor from Buy.com. I wanted to know if everything works after installing Mountain Lion 10.8.4. I know that i would need to get mini wifi card from ebay or amazon since wifi would not most likely work after installing mountain lion. So just want to know if this model is a good purchase for installing mountain lion. Any advice would be great.

According to what I see here: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/products/laptops/product-detail.html?oid=5350401#!tab=specs

Answer is... Yes.

But you will have to replace the WiFi card.

Sure as long as it is OEM or retail Ivy/Sandy Bridge mobile CPU (non ULV) with TDP 45w or less.

Mavericks has not been released, so there is no way to tell, crystal balls being hard to find...
