Advantages: size, weight reduction, great performance
Disadvantages: smaller expansion cards needed.

...in the box is a HP keyboard and optical mouse that connect via USB. There are 4 unused small form factor expansion slots at the rear right of the case for PCI and AGP style cards. Again like the tower design DC7700, the sound is somehow delivered from the PC with no visible speakers. These are built in and come preinstalled with the operating system. So you will have sound during the XP setup. Installation is quick as most of the install is ready ...
...network settings. As mentioned before we have had issues with the pre installed Symantec AntiVirus software as it clashed with our existing A/V on the network but this is something we uninstall before proceeding now. We learnt the hard way! There are no install CDs with the PC itself and it asks you to make a set of recovery CDs when you initially start it up. I would highly recommend doing this as you might need to reinstall the operating system ... Read review

Advantages: Its high capacity for upgrading.
Disadvantages: Poor standard graphics capability. Very uncool design.

This is a good computer for pretty much anything except for high definition graphics like playing the newest games at their upper limits or graphics creation or anything like that. However the thing is, he is capable of much, much more if your not satisfied with how it performs firsthand since its almost empty inside. You can add more RAM memory, you can put a real graphics card on it since its integrated one sucks. Thats why its a very good choice ...
...at its limits not only at its first look value. There are many out there that are better equipped at first look but there is little you can add to them without having to change most of their components starting with their motherboard and maybe even their carcase! With that said i hope i helped those that don't know much about computers but have enough money to buy a fairly expensive one.I'm sorry about saying its expensive but in my country £514.12 ...

Advantages: PERFORMS WELL
Disadvantages: COSTLY.

The hp Compaq stunned my mind when I heard its ability to deliver proven technology. I have some influence on deciding on which type of computer hardware or software to purchase in office. The PC device comes with dual core technology type and the dual core simply means that the PC is capable of having more than one processor and it has advantages over those PCs that have only one processor because it is quite faster and can process numerous in ...
...use for my office work. HP has proven their competence on making computer hard wares including printers that I regard one of the best in the market currently. Well getting this in my household would cost me quite some money because this is an office use. Since I am now in need of such PC, I think of making savings for it. Its company manual description is detailed very well and quite easy to understand and use. From what I have read from the manual, ... Read review

Advantages: good look, relatively cheap, dvd burner, 160gb hdd
Disadvantages: not enough RAM, processor isnt that good

I have this computer at home. its a great piece of machinery, although its a tad slow and i had the RAM double to now leave me with 2gb, i find that this processor, compared to that of the one in my office is slow. but for the price, this personal desktop computer is a bargain, it has great features, including a dvd burner, and a relatively large hard drive. the overall look of the computer is amazing, it looks like its worth a lot more money. building ...

Advantages: No bugs, major crashes, fast and loads of fun!
Disadvantages: Can't think of any....

I was absolutely blown away by this little computer! My partner, who is a graphic designer, bought this to replace the PC we had and as soon as I got on it I was away! It is so user friendly and easy to navigate. I have learned so much through just using and I don't get irritated by it because it hardly ever crashes. When it does 'crash' or 'freeze up' it's very easy to rectify as you just click 'force quit' and it solves the problem! Brilliant! ...
...to get it working again! Yay! There is also some really fun software already on it like the IMovies and IDVD that you can create your own little movies with photographs with music and effects. It's really good fun and that's the key to this little Mac, it's fun to use whatever you're doing! ... Read review
