Compact Compaq CRT 17" Monitor

Advantages: Well designed, good quality case and screen
Disadvantages: Its not a TFT

...I received a Compaq 7500 monitor with my old Compaq PC about 3 years ago in 2002. INFO The 7500 is a 17" CRT screen made by Compaq but made in China. I don't think Compaq sell these any more but I have seen them on EBAY for about £35 and as little as £16. DETAILS AND DESIGN The monitor is all black in design with a silver frame surrounding the screen and the controls. Well really it's not silver but more like a brushed aluminium effect. This is a standard 17" Compaq monitor with I think a 16" viewable area. It's shape and design are far better than a lot of newer monitors on the market today. The main back section of the monitor is not that big so you can easily fit the monitor on to the smaller sized office desks you get for home PC's. Rough sizes are • 43 cm (H) x 41 cm (W) X 45 cm (D) I like this monitor for both...

Review of Compaq S 7500

Compaq in a Nutshell

Advantages: Excellent design, easy to reinstall
Disadvantages: cost

...Probably not everyone’s first choice when purchasing a new computer, but as you will see if you read on Compaq computers are surprisingly good. The only draw back I feel is that they are a tad on the expensive side. ** My Experience ** Over the last year the company that I work at has gradually started to buy Compaq computers. At first I wasn't sure about them as for as long as I have worked there they have always bought Dell computers and I was quite happy with these. When we go the first Compaq I thought they looked a bit strange as I was used to the look of Dell computers. My first impression was that they looked quite fidley to service and were a lot heavier than the Dell computers, which we had. But over the year that we have had them I have found them to be very easy to work with. The design of the cases has improved...

HP Compaq Business Notebook 6530b

Advantages: its fast, stylish and very portable
Disadvantages: could be smaller for portability

...This is another notebook from the HP Compaq range that isn’t quite as small as their other ones. Yet still has enough portability for it to be called a notebook. Its basically a mini laptop that runs on windows vista so it lets you do anything you would normally do, in places you wouldn’t normally be able to do them with a full sized PC or laptop. One of the greatest things about this notebook is that the keyboard is actually full sized. If you’ve ever been on an Eee PC for a while you’ll know that it can get a bit frustrating after a while of typing. However with this particular model the keypad is spread out right across the length of the notebook meaning they have actually been able to make a full sized keypad out of it. This basically means you’ll be able to type just as well as you would on any...

HP COMPAQ.

Advantages: PERFORMS WELL
Disadvantages: COSTLY.

...The hp Compaq stunned my mind when I heard its ability to deliver proven technology. I have some influence on deciding on which type of computer hardware or software to purchase in office. The PC device comes with dual core technology type and the dual core simply means that the PC is capable of having more than one processor and it has advantages over those PCs that have only one processor because it is quite faster and can process numerous in formations at a given time. I am considering very much on buying this since I have gotten the guarantee through the one I use for my office work. HP has proven their competence on making computer hard wares including printers that I regard one of the best in the market currently. Well getting this in my household would cost me quite some money because this is an office use. Since I am now...

  Compaq Presario 700: First Time Buyer?

Advantages: Decent for a first time user
Disadvantages: Potential crashes, over heating

...-^- Introduction -^- As a member of Ciao I?ve been looking to do reviews on objects I?ve had for a while. To try and really give an in depth review over things. Although I know the Compaq Presario 700 may not be on sale anymore this could be a review for people wanting to get it second hand from someone or buying on website etc. -^- Background Information -^- I bought my laptop in September 2002. I?ve always wanted a laptop just for the actual feeling of owning one. However I went halfs on it with my parents as it was a necessary for me to have seeing as I was also starting university. In total the price was £900. Pricey it seemed but I wasn?t going over £1000. The actual one I wanted was sold out and I really didn?t want to leave without one so I took the Compaq Presario 700. In total I?ve had it for just over two years now...

Compaq Presario 6097EA

Advantages: After Sales Product Support
Disadvantages: Unwanted Pre-Installed Software

...Fast, reliable, good looks, stable ... to mention a few, but enough about me, I`m here to talk about the Compaq Presario 6097EA. Ah, who am I kidding, course I mean the PC. I have had it for about 6 months now and is an upgrade from a Compaq Presario 2292 which I had for about 4 years. Yes, that`s the downside, 4 years ago I had a state-of-the-art machine and nowadays it just doesn`t cut the mustard. Here`s a list of what you are going to get for your money: *Intel Pentium 4 2.2ghz processor Should suffice for even the most intensive applications! This can be upgraded in the future as it is removable. It also comes with a good fan mounted directly on top of it to keep it nice and cool. *256mb PC2100 DDR RAM DDR ram is the new standard for RAM these days. As I am writing this from the top of my head and do not wish to inundate...

Compaq excellence

Advantages: Fast, effective and looks great
Disadvantages: Only lasts 2 hours without charge

...I recently decided to get rid of my desktop computer due to it being out of date and incredibly slow and virus ridden. I decided i'd go for a laptop instead this time as it takes up less space and is mobile. Having never had a laptop before i was cautious as to what laptop to buy. I'd never looked into it before so wasn't sure on the market. I initially thought i would buy a Sony or a laptop from Dell. I scoured the market in various different shops and came out buying this Compaq Presario. To do this day i've had no problems with it what so ever and the performance is top class, far better than my old desktop. It has a large 120GB hard drive which is more than enough for my needs. 1 GB of RAM which is divided into two 512MB ones. The screen is a 15.4" widescreen. On first start up of the laptop i had to follow a couple easy...

Review of Compaq Presario Media Center F560EM

Compaq Presario V6000

Advantages: Incredibly fast and capable of managing demanding apllications.
Disadvantages: Surface smudgy - very hard to keep clean,

...The only downfall of a superb machine is the material used to form the main body. The body is made of a shiny plastic material. This is a poor decision made by Compaq as this material is easily dirtied and smudged. Although an annoying and persistent problem, it can be easily rectified by cleaning the whole body with spectacle lens cleaning wipes a few times a month. The battery can last for about 2 hours on full power and 5-10 on 'Power Saver' mode. Energy consumption can be regulated by the user and new power regulating plans can be created. The V6000 is truly one of the best laptops on the market - allowing the user to use just about any program in any location....
