I WAS A VIRGIN......
Review of Compaq Presario 2500 - Mobile Pentium 4 2.4 GHz - 15" TFT by CRIPPLE

Advantages: Versatility, speed, ease of use
Disadvantages: CAPITAL LETTERS, plastic lid catches

...don't miss any letters. TECHNICAL STUFF The Compaq Presario 2500 is fitted with a 2.52GHz Intel Pentium 4 processor which gives excellent accessibility and speed. It can be temperamental, with start up times ranging from the sublimely fast to the somewhat lethargic. Once started though, the processor allows fluid and rapid movement between programs with great multitasking. At 30Gb the hard drive could be bigger. I curently use only 2.5Gb ... Read review

Couldn't have done without it
Review of Compaq Presario 2500 - Mobile Pentium 4 2.4 GHz - 15" TFT by EldritchGhost

Advantages: Very powerful and Cheap
Disadvantages: Bad battery longevity and NOISY

I bought this laptop about 2 years ago now so it is pretty outdated by the speed at which the industry is moving. I got is cheap in a PC world January sale for £299 and as far as I am concerned it has done everything that I have asked it to within reason. I originally bought it for school work and in that respect it has had no problems, I also like to play games and only now are games coming into the market which it can't play mainly because it ...

Compag Presario 2500 Power consumption issues
Review of Compaq Presario 2500 - Mobile Pentium 4 2.4 GHz - 15" TFT by TheBugDoc

Advantages: Good functional desktop replacement
Disadvantages: Fans frequently shorten battery life

In 2+ years of use I have found my 2500 to be a very good desktop substitute. BUT once the fans kick in (fairly often) the battery life greatly shortens to less than 50-60 minutes. This unit kicks out a lot of heat so the three fans operate almost constantly in my experience.The fans are also noisy -- I have had a librarian once come to me with request to quiet my computer! On the plus side :-) one can warm one's hands in a super airconditioned, cold ... Read review

A Great Computer - Compaq Presario 2500

Advantages: Reliable, easy to use,small and light weight.
Disadvantages: battery runs down fast after a while

I brought the compaq presario 2500 one year ago. I found the compaq presario 2500 to be a great computer. I have used it every day for a few hours, and today it is as good as new.

The compaq presario 2500 is very light and it is easy to transport from place to place. With all my travelling in the pass year the computer ... Read review

Full fill your need but Windows ME or 98 wont work
Review of Compaq Presario 2500 - Mobile Pentium 4 2.4 GHz - 15" TFT by fajar

Advantages: Full fill your need of capability
Disadvantages: Old windows won't work

...while installing windows 2000. The Compaq did not give you a driver support for this version of windows. Otherwise when you satisfied with the XP version, you already have all the mobile need for your office works. While the other vendor didn't give you no more PS2 connection, compaq were smart enough to give you it. But for me it still bother me that I can't make my notebook work on windows ME environment which my accounting program are running. I ... Read review
