Good all-rounder for limited knowledge user

Advantages: Built in 56k modem
Disadvantages: Rebooting problems

When I purchased mine, I was fully aware of the problems that surround this model of computer - minor rebooting errors. But unless you are a computer wizard (and if you are, the Presario range isn't for you), these aren't going to annoy you too much - if it doesn't shut down first time, says that it can't read the hard drive, CD-Rom, etc - ignore and keep rebooting - the problems it thinks it is is hardly the case at all. These only happen occasionally, ...
...a really good value for money laptop. Built in modem, CD-Rom, and a good amount of hard drive and memory space. The built in software is a bit too simple for me, so I shopped around for other internet providers and installed Office 2000 instead of pre-installed Microsoft Works. It's at least a year old model, which would make it cheaper, and you think less worthy of new models, but it's not too heavy - I'm always carrying it around with me from home ...

Disadvantages: COMPAQ CUTOMER SERVICES, SPEAKERS UNDER WRIST REST

I WAS VERY FORTUNATE TO RECEIVE A COMAPQ PRESARIO LAPTOP 1260 AS A GIFT AS IT MUST BE THE ONLY THING OF THIS VALUE WITHOUT GETTING CREDIT. THIS MACHINE WAS BUILT WITH THE INTEND USE OF BEING AN INTERENT SUFING SYSTEM. IT RUNS A 56K MODEM, A SLEEK SHAPE WITH VIRTUALLY NO WEIGHT PROBLEM. THE KEYBOARD COMES WITH A SYMNAPTEC TOUCH PAD WHICH ENABLES PROSISION POSITIONING OF THE ARROW EVEN FOR LOSE PEOPLE WITH LARGE FINGERS. THE SYSTEM RUNS A COOL 333 ...
...THESE BUT SUFFICENT IN PRODUCING A FASTE SYSTEM. THE SCREEN BOASTS HIGH COLOUR AND DETAIL AND COMES READILY WITH WINDOWS 98 INSTALLED UNFORTUNALTELY THE SPEAKERS AND LOCATED BELOW THE KEYS WHICH DISTORTS THE SAMPLING SOUNDS AS THIS AREA ALSO SERVES AS A WRIST REST. LAPTOPS HAVE THE ABILITY TO BE UPGRADE BUT FOR AN EXTREMELY COST WHICH COULD BE ELIMINATED BY BUYING A NEW ONE, THE BATTERY IF UNFORTUNATELY NOT AS LASTING AND POWERFUL AS CLAIMED EVEN ...
