Advantages: the media centre Disadvantages: the small hard drive space
The CompaqPresariomedia centre c310EU is exactly what it says on the tin, its basically a media centre laptop, so if you love your photos, love your videos and love listening to loads of music. Then this laptop is designed for you.
Because it has windows media centre built in, when you turn it on, it automatically goes straight onto the media centre screen, and it does this very fast too.
From this screen, you can listen to all your music tracks, view all of your photos, look at all your videos and even tape and watch recorded TV. However you will need to purchase a TV tuner card if you want to record TV from your laptop. However these can be bought for just £40 and they go straight into your USB port, and you can then record thing straight onto your laptop, watch TV live, pause live TV (on some of the TV cards) and even set it to ...
Advantages: Great for music, videos and pictures, Disadvantages: Not so good for DVD games
from this it has been very reliable and great for watching films or listening to music. Ive also got wireless internet, which is very good on this laptop.
My only problem with this game is it's inability to handle high quality games. At first I blamed it on the lack of space due to my music, but after it crashed (and i had to lose all my data and start from scratch) i tried playing a DVD based game, "Need For Speed Hot Persuit".

Although I have found the CD based games are fine, i recently purchased the complete sims 1 collection which works perfectly.
Overall I believe this laptop is very durable and perfect for media such as music, videos and pictures. Highly recommend.
This is my first review so pleeeeeeease comment with any tips ...
Advantages: Lots of storage, affordable, fast. Disadvantages: Keys fall of keyboard.
it was of poor quality, the system as a whole was very good but the actual product was not up to much. Within twelve months one of the keys had fallen off the keyboard and was unable to be replaced without replacing the whole keyboard at a very expensive price. I would not buy again. The graphics etc are very clear however media centre is not very good for watching dvds on as it is very jumpy. Bes to use HP's in-built dvd player as this stops the jumpyness. The internet is very fast on it and there is alot of memory so there is no problem with storage of music and photos etc. However if buying to use alot i wouold choose a different model. ...
