Another DC7700? What a great PC!

Advantages: Fast quick reliable, functional and cheap
Disadvantages: preinstalled software can cause set up headaches.

...While some of you may have already read my other DC7700 review here on ciao, I feel I should give you another details of another member of the range that we own. This PC is slightly lower performance spec that the one previously reviewed but also has some software differences that you need to be aware of. If you are not aware the DC7700 by HP Compaq is not 1 PC. It is a range of models under the 1 badge. As previously mentioned we are migrating to becoming a predominant HP Hardware user in the office and these desktops have so far proved great value for money with great performance Looks, Very square looking with harsh angular corners and a large capacity ventilation sytem on the front. This maximises the air circulation keeping your PC cool.The aluminium look front of the Case has a modern feel giving it a great contrast...

Review of HP Compaq Business Desktop Dc7700

A hot to trot Business PC

Advantages: Great price, features, performance, looks, styling
Disadvantages: Im yet to find one!

...Shiny and full of beans is my affectionate way to refer to our latest desktop recruits here in the office. No, not the staff but the PCs they work on. And they don't come much fuller than the DC7700 by HP Compaq. As previously mentioned we are switching to becoming a HP Hardware user fast and their desktops have been a pleasant suprise during hardware replacement. Let have a look at the product. The Case has a shiny silver front giving it a cutting edge look while is Black case with removable side panels make maintenance, upgrades and repairs easy with full access to the internals of the machine. Accessed from the front is the essential CD/DVD recorder, 2 USB sockets for attaching various devices such as cameras, keyboards and mice as well as a microphone and headphone socket. Whoever invented front accessible sockets like...

Mini Me Super PC!

Advantages: size, weight reduction, great performance
Disadvantages: smaller expansion cards needed.

...As you all know by now we are in the middle of replacing all of our workstation PCs at work and we have been buying the excellent DC7700 range from Hewlett Packard. However, in my most recent purchase, I hit a small snag. Until now, all of our previous PCs have been the tower design boxes. This is to say that the PC stands up vertically as opposed to the lying down small form factor design. I did this becaause oll of the PCs we require will be located under desks. Not on top which suits this design. When i spoke to the supplier, they informed me they could no longer get the DC7700 in tower form but did me an astounding deal on the small form factor desktop DC7700 seen here. How it differs.... Between this and the standard tower DC7700, you notice 2 major differences. Size and weight. Firstly the box itself, If stood on its end...

HP Compaq DC7600 - The Business Machine

Advantages: Small, Professional, Covers Basic Needs
Disadvantages: Anything more then Basic Needs and it Starts to Struggle

... Hp Compaq dc7600 Introduction I do not like these machines. My work has decided to purchase them and everyday between the hours of 10.30 and 7.00 I am surrounded by the menacing humming of tiny hamster churning the cogs within these towers. Now maybe my dislike could quite possible be unjust, maybe the fact that I?ve associated it with work could lead to prejudice, I can accept that. There are good points and there are bad points to these machines. The thing you have to realise though is that they are made for businesses, I shall explain this further into my review. Specs Depending on the machine you buy your specs can range from nothing to anything. I?m going to base this review of the version I have, all the options are store defaults supplied directly from HP. * Intel Pentium Processor 3GHz * 1Gb Ram...

HP COMPAQ.

Advantages: PERFORMS WELL
Disadvantages: COSTLY.

.... The USB type is 8x hi speed USB-4pin USB type A with 2 in front. My own comes with one-year warranty. It also has built in speaker. It has trusted platform module security chip embedded security and this makes the security system trusted. It has fantastic operating system software like the Microsoft windows vista business/XP professional downgrade and also it is provided with the security lock slots, administrator pass word and so on. Getting PC like this is not really a bad idea because it has been in full use in my office and has not gotten any problem since functioning. But the thing with the PC is that it is not that easy to install and so needs to read fully on the manual for company's directions and guide. So if In need of the HP business desktop DC5800-core duo E8200 2.66 GHz, IT247.com is a very good alternative...

HP Compaq Business Notebook 6530b

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

...day. Another great thing about this is the sheer size of the storage space inside. The Eee PC hardly had any on the basic model and so carrying about a spare memory stick was pretty much essential. This Hp Business Compaq will certainly not require any more space though as its got a impressive 160 gb already built in. The small size of the notebook isn’t sacrificing speeds either as it will still reach 5400 rpm, the average of the normal sized laptops too. The screen size isn’t that small either, so its not limiting your workability. It offers a 14.1 TFT display and is a good quality screen with a good 1280 x 800 resolution. The only thing that let down some of HP’s other notebooks was the battery life, however this one doesn’t at all. It offers a fantastic 6.25 hours which is well up there with some...
