Advantages: Intel's 845 chip set allows PC manufacturers to pair Pentium 4 CPUs with SDRAM instead of more-expensive RDRAM. HP's latest Vectra, with a 2-GHz P4 and 256MB of PC133 memory, Disadvantages: The speakers integrated into the system case produce lackluster, tinny sound.
...Though the vents on the front of the gray and blue desktop are reminiscent of the grille of a Ford truck, the case does sport some features that should prove useful to IT managers, such as chassis-intrusion detection and easy interior access. To open the system, just lift a latch handle and then pop off the top. Inside, you can access the three open PCI slots and two drive bays (one for a hard drive only) without tools. You can insert drives after you snap off the front panel, and add expansion cards after pressing a green tab, which pops off a support cover. With HP's Ultraflow cooling system, the components stay cool with very little noise. this is a very good pc overall i wouild definetly recommend this to any1...

...HPDeskJet 3650
I won this printer 2 years ago with Dooyoo, which was a pleasant surprise just near Christmas. This printer has been used for printing my CVs and my assignments.
As I didn't buy this printer, I don't know the original price but I'm guessing like most HP printers, it would of cost between £100-200 depending on the time of purchase.
You can buy this printer starting from 9.99 on Ebay and Ebuyer.com is selling it for £25 + £ 5 delivery.
The printer is made by HewlettPackard, which is a well-known company who produces good quality and lasting products. This printer is for personal use, as the cartridge wouldn't more than a few hours in an office environment.
General info on the printer, it's blue and grey. 42.9 cm x 20.6 cm x 14.4 cm and weighs 2.3 kg.
It has two blue buttons on the left side. The first buttons...

The 6940 is the sort of a solid, reliable printer you would expect from HP - with very easy connection through USB. Quality of output on ordinary paper with standard cartridges is very good and, on the correct paper with the photographic cartridges,... more
