A perfect blend of professional computing and easy to use hardware. The Presario V6000 utilises most of the hardware found in professional corporations as a basis for its personal or family orientated laptop computer. Built purposely for Windows Vista Operating System, the V6000 uses this feature to its full advantage working flawlessly with all the Vista Versions.

Employing only the fastest of processors, the CPU of the V6000 rivals that of most modern desktops. It uses Dual-Core processors either by AMD or Intel, both working over 1.7GHz and hard-drives ranging from 80-160GB. The V6000 is truly excellent for smoothly running the most demanding of applications.

Serving its multimedia needs the V6000 is complimented by a Matshita DVD+RAM, capable of playing all DVD and CD formats on a HD widescreen. Also, the V6000 has a high quality built-in WiFi receiver and Bluetooth SoftThe laptop also utilises touch-activated 'Quicklaunch' buttons enabling quick and easy access to DVD and Volume functions. It also applies High Definition audio to all sound, including MP3 and various movie formats as well as outputting video at HD 720p through the side VGA port. The laptop also contains various ports serving many more needs, including:
● 1 VGA port
● 3 USB 2.0 ports
● 1 IEEE-1394
● 1 RJ 11 modem connector
● 1 RJ 45 Ethernet connector
● S-video TV out
● Remote control infrared port (Remote Control
optional)
● 1 Headphone-out , 1 Microphone-in port
● Cable docking connector
5-in-1 integrated Media Reader for Secure
Digital cards, MultiMedia cards, Memory Stick,
Memory Stick Pro, or xD Picture cards

The only downfall of a superb machine is the material used to form the main body. The body is made of a shiny plastic material. This is a poor decision made by Compaq as this material is easily dirtied and smudged. Although an annoying and persistent problem, it can be easily rectified by cleaning the whole body with spectacle lens cleaning wipes a few times a month.

The battery can last for about 2 hours on full power and 5-10 on 'Power Saver' mode. Energy consumption can be regulated by the user and new power regulating plans can be created.

The V6000 is truly one of the best laptops on the market - allowing the user to use just about any program in any location.
