At the beginning of 2017 I installed my HP Pavilion dv7 with Ubuntu 16.04. One moth ago I realized that the processor is a 64-bit CPU and that for all these years it has never been used as such. HP originally supplied it to me with Windows Vista 32Bit, so I believed that the processor did not support a 64Bit operating system.

Ubuntu 16.04 on HP Pavilion dv7
Ten years ago I did buy a big HP laptop which was delivered with Windows Vista. Microsoft now is going to end the support for Vista. The device still works perfectly. I decided to move it to Ubuntu. The dv7-1060ez is a dual core with 4 GB memory and 310 GB hard disk, good candidate to become a usable Ubuntu laptop.
