Advantages: Very reliable, great graphics and sound, good work horse, wireless connectivity Disadvantages: Weight, odd shaped and bulky, expensive when new
...and the multiport on the lid surface contributes to its square and awkward shaped attributes. Saying that the battery life is very good at around 3 hours but I have noticed it diminish over the recent months.
If I had paid over the £2000 RRP I would have been disappointed but picking it up cheap it has a very good specification which is actually aimed at a business professional. USB 2.0 was new at the time that this computer was released and the three shortcut buttons are also very useful just below the screen.
I have never had any problems with this computer and the Radeon Graphics card is excellent combined with the 15" XGA screen. If you don't mind sacrificing weight for features and reliability then this is a great computer for you!...

Advantages: Reliable, Durable, Great display, Portable desktop Disadvantages: None
...Nearly 4 years ago I bought myself my first well known laptop after 3 lots of non branded ones. There is a world of difference and with careful selection I ended up with the CompaqEvoN800. What a break that turned out to be.
First things first - the screen is superb with top laptop resolution rather than the crappy max of 1280xnothing offered by most other models out there even today. 1400 x 1050 gives too small a font some might say. Load of rubbish. This screen has the best viewability I've ever witnessed by which I mean that it's easily readable from any angle in front of the screen. No, it's not widescreen but don't let that put you off.
Battery time is a solid 2-3 hours depending on activity and even after 4 years of the same battery it's still the same.
Layout of ports etc is pretty standard and the only thing...

Advantages: Fast for a Compaq laptop, not bad price, nice size hd Disadvantages: bit ugly, not very light for carrying around, quite large
...Compaq may not make the most desirable looking laptops, and this most certainly isn't going to make you fall in love with it, but I do like this laptop which I got a while ago for only £700!
with 1.4GhzP4-M, quite fast for a Compaq laptop, and a nice graphics card (mine came with a 128mb radeon gfx card) games and applications run nice and fast on this laptop
What drew me to this was the 30 gig hard drive also, a definate bonus for my work, especially at this price.
The main problem I have found though is the bulk of the laptop. It is very wide and heavy, not the idea for carrying around. I would probably have not bought the laptop if I had known I was going to carry it around a lot.
The laptop comes with the usual software packages, windows XP home ed., MS Office applications, Windows Media player etc.
There were...

Please bow your heads and stand a moment in silence to mark the passing of my old laptop, an Acer travelmate 230, which, after four years and one too many blows to the head, finally gave up the ghost and went to laptop heaven with some of my holiday... more

I've recently been able to test this laptop as my stepdad has received one through his work. It's the first time I have seen an HP/Compaq laptop, but I've used many other brands so I'll be mainly using them as a comparison.
At first glance, the laptop more
