Advantages: Very Upgradable, Cheaply Priced, Very Reliable. Disadvantages: The nVidia 7500LE is by no means an efficent card, No front case fan.
...I have found the Compaq SR2125UK a very powerful machine, I bought it as a secondary machine from PCWorld back in May 2007. When I first bought it I didn't realise it's full potential of what it's very upgradable motherboard can have. It's processor which comes shipped with it is an Intel Pentium D 915 which is around one of the first Dual Core processors around and is now starting to age a little, but this machine will happily take any Intel Core 2 Duo's. It'll also take up to 4GB of PC5300 DDR2 RAM and any PCIe x16 graphic card (with a PSU upgrade).
So onto my first experience with this Compaq, after it had been delivered in a massive 4x4x4 foot box I was at first a little dissapointed to find a Micro ATX tower (smaller size computer) as alot of these towers which I've had experiences with have had cooling problems. So now all...

HP Pavillion DV 6355 Review ofHP Pavilion MediaCenter dv6355ea Entertainment - Core 2 Duo T5300 1.73 GHz - 15.4" TFTby
PaulineLees
Advantages: Remote, Bright and Sharp Screen, Lightweight, Large Hardrive Disadvantages: 1GB Ram, Only 3 USB Ports, Webcam Incompatability with Vista
...that the lid slams shut to secure closing.
HP includes 3 USB ports, including an ExpressCard slot and a 5-in-1 card reader.
A remote control is included to allow controlling of power, volume, DVD controls etc allowing you to watch a movie in bed and turn the machine off without getting up. This is a useful feature.
Performance from the Intel Core 2 Duo T5300 with 1GB of RAM is satisfactory, but struggles with Vista\'s aero interface.
The laptop is a compact size, comparible with all 15.4" models meaning its easily transportable.
I paid £699.99 for this product and all in all I am pleased with the Notebook. I would recommend this product to others....

Advantages: All-round entertainment system that keeps up with the best. Disadvantages: Graphocs card could do with upgrading.
...OK, Had this machine for a month now and must say i am very impressed. Its not only nice to look at but has endless features and capabilities that will not dissapoint.
First of all its HP so you know you're going to get the good quality and performance. Especially with a pentium 43.2Ghz.
So, the good bits:-
Performance: Excellent performance will keep up with the high end machines anyday.
Media: Has a massive 250GB Hard Drive aswell as a very stylish removable hard drive (160GB). It is going to take me a very long time before i run out of space!!
OS: Comes with MediaCenter 2005 which i have to say suprised me. Its the first time ive tried this OS and would rate it 10/10 any day. I love the fact that i can watch my TV on my pc and navigate with the remote control.
DVD-RW... Up to speed DVD rewrite with a massive bonus! LIGHTSCRIBE...
