The Future Of Good Value Desktop PC's
Review of HP Compaq Business Desktop d530 - P4 2.8 GHz by friedchris

Advantages: Cheap Price, Top Of The Range For Price Bracket
Disadvantages: There are faster systems out there, comes stand alone with no hardware

...receive a free copy of HP Client Manager which is a web-based tool and lets you inventory hardware, monitory system health and upload drivers. A very useful tool at all times. BEWARE: This is a stand alone desktop machine. It does not come with a monitor, a keyboard, a mouse, or any other hardware. As such it is best for those wanting to upgrade (me) or those piecing together their own system. An excellent system for the price. I would recommend ... Read review

Good value, but don't be fooled by this
Review of HP Compaq Business Desktop d530 - P4 2.8 GHz by Terigoche

Advantages: Fairly good spec for price, good room for updating in the future
Disadvantages: Deceptive price -many peripherals not included. Also apart from processor spec not amazing

A friend from work recently purchased this PC, due to its low cost and fast speed, however after buying the PC was very disappointed. At first glance this seems like a great buy, however the fast processor is really the only high spec. component of the PC, and this may trick potential buyers into believing that it maintains that standard in all aspects. Lack of monitor, poor graphics card, low amount of RAM, below par sound system and general absence ...
...mean that much more money would have to be spent to make this PC usable by a home or inexperienced buyer. Overall this means they would probably be better buying a complete PC for a few hundred more. However the PC isn't all bad -to a user upgrading their previous PC this may be useful as you already own all the missing equipment and any of the lower specs could be upgraded with your own hardware, as a plus side to this PC is that there is plenty ...

Good for doing work.
Review of HP Compaq Business Desktop d530 - P4 2.8 GHz by Gravitate

Advantages: easily upgradable.
Disadvantages: low specs (except for processor)

Its a great computer for work, its got plenty of ram and probably enough hard disk space.If you are wanting to play games on it however, it has no where near the right amount of ram or disk space. It would be too slow for a lot of graphic design work as well. If you are wanting a gaming machine, I suggest you look elsewhere as this won't really be up to it even with upgrades. If you want to do typing and graphic design, you might find it beneficial ... Read review

They have the internet on computers now?
Review of HP Compaq Business Desktop d530 - P4 2.8 GHz by IG88

Advantages: Nice Looking Case, Optical Drves Fit Colour, Nice Processor
Disadvantages: Somewhat low specs, exept P4 processor

Well, HP have moved on to computers now. Even though they only make 0.08% profit on each machine (compared to Dell's 8%) they still reamin true to their cause. As this is a HP machine the case is at a high standard and the optical and floppy drives match the colour of the case. The specs are just OK and the PC could be used for gameing, but not next gen. I think it would struggle with things like Farcry, but the P4 is a nice touch, though some would ... Read review
