Compaq EN Series Review ofCompaq Deskpro EN Space Saver - PIII933MHzby

Advantages: Support, ease of maintenance, advanced diagnostics Disadvantages: Can be slightly slower
...These PCs may not be lightning fast but then they're not meant to be. Not to say they're slow just not as fast as the fastest available.
Where they excel is support and ease of maintenance.
I have had occasion to log fault calls with Dell, HP and Compaq for fault calls and Compaq win. People take ownership of problems there and you're not passed from pillar to post. Logging warranty calls is straight forward - you don't spend half the morning trying to persuade them what the problem is when he is only half way through page nineteen of his diagnosis script - Compaq are a bit better than that and seem to be capable of independant thought.
In terms of design the EN is first class- everything slides together and you don't have to take everything else out to fit a drive. Even the motherboard is on rails - handy if the MD is breathing down...

Not very reliable Review ofCompaq Deskpro EN Space Saver - PIII933MHzby
theforce
Advantages: Erm...... Disadvantages: Unreliable, unrelaible and unreliable.
...It seems to me that the Compaq range of computers is anything but reliable. Bearing in mind how prelavent they are in the work place however, it seems as though they are doing something right. Give them their due, their marketing department are wizards. A shame the same can't be said of the people who design and build them.
They do seem to be a touch dependant upon the diagnostic tool that compaq build into them. However, I wonder how much of a detrimental effect this kind of architecture is having on the relibalility of the hardware.
Basically, I would expect a P.C. to be comatible with virtually anything, with a tweak or two here and there in the hands of people who are trained to do the tweaking. However, the more I see, it seems as though a whole team of technicians is required to keep the hardware operative as it chashes with all...

Advantages: Good Solid reliable computer Disadvantages: Fiddly to upgrade the memory or hard drive.
...I run a charity that gives computers to disabled peole. Mostly, I have had Compaq computers donated to me for this project and I can honestly say that they are about 99% reliable.
Of the over 300+ computers donated so far,270+ have been Deskpro EN series, and I have only had 3 callbacks for problems on the units.Normally a plug I hadn't pushed in properly. All the other have proved to be no problem at all.
I myself use a Deskpro EN at home, and it has worked flawlessly for over 1.5 years, and its on 24 hours a day. It is also the server for a local LAN in my house, and is the master for Internet connection sharing. Faultless in operation, I would not hesitate to recommend this marque to anybody looking for a reliable unit.
Any business looking for long term reliability, and a good strong workhorse should definately consider a Compaq...
