Ole Faithful Compaq Presario 6000

AUG

2007

I bought my Compaq Presario 6000 at the end of 2003. It had already been used by one other person when I bought it. I want to compliment Compaq on being a great pc builder. Although I am now having a few minor glitches, my 6000 has been faithful. It has been recovered more times than I want to… read full review »

This computer is great for the everyday kind of things, such as using the internet, and using the Microsoft programs. The only problem is if you are a big gamer, which I am, the graphics card in the unit is not an accelerated graphics card and there for some games can't be played on it. … read full review »

NOV

I have had this computer for over a year now, I have never had any problems with it except not enough memory in it! Me and my two children use it every day! I use it for internet, school, church , kids school stuff, photos, music, movies, writing letters, downloading pictures and songs an movies, and art projects. I would recommmend it to anyone that wanted it for home use only, or for kids ! I dont think it would be right for a business unless it was a home based type. Not enough memory or storage for it… read full review »

Bought a Compac for my daughter lat year for Christmas and I got the entertainment package - I think that is what they called it. It has 9 in 1 memory card reader, cd/dvd burner. It has been a good computer. She uses it mainly for chating, myspace and burning cd's and it works great and it is a good looking computer. Price was better than most… read full review »

Want a laptop with a wide screen, tons of ram and hard drive memory, a CD/DVD burner and lots of programs included all at a low cost? Then this the one is for you! Since HP took over Compaq there is an "upgrade edge" added to this formerly lower grade computer. (Looks great… read full review »
