Compaq Presario CQ60

...i bought a refurbished compaq presario cq60 (to give it the full title) about 3 months ago, and i love it. it does everything i need it to do and a little bit more, bit reading between the lines will let the more astute readers realize i don't need it to do a hell of a lot. my basic usage includes: word processing, general internet use, playing movies/music, downloading movies/music and perhaps a little bit of photo shopping images (to give me the ...
...15.6 inch display, which is 0.2 inches bigger than a standard laptop. not a huge amount of difference you may think, but it is worth it. As the screen is that slight touch wider, watching widescreen movies is nicer, also the text size is a little bigger, making it easier on the eyes.

Review of Compaq Presario CQ60

This is a good laptop that I purchased from Tesco for £299.00, so far it has proved to be a good machine and I am certainly very happy with it. It's easy to set up - just turn it on and follow the on screen instructions. It does take about half an hour though before its set up and ready to use. I have found the laptop to be fairly fast, its great for internet browsing and youtube, I have also loaded a couple of games onto it and they run nicely, ...
...laptop! I mostly enjoy it for the internet, it is reliable and allows me to do word processing too.

Review of Compaq Presario CQ60

The Compaq Presario CQ60 has proved to be very good value for money. I paid £380 in January '09 and it has worked perfectly since. The wireless has a good range and the screen quality is outstanding. Everything else works how it should and the only real negative is a not-so-great battery life (approx 2 hrs on power saver). All in all, good for games (mine has a separate graphics card - not sure if standard?), word processing, internet and general ...
...screen size that results from having an integrated number pad on the keyboard. However the larger size does result in a heavy laptop. As of yet I have had no technical issues what so ever with this laptop and I would most definitely recommend it to anyone who wants a laptop on a budget! Hope this was of some help! Summary: Overall very good laptop that is reliable and fast! Source: My dooyoo review ...
