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 admit...

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.  You can buy... review »

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 to work!  But overall a wonderful piece of machineary!  The...

Wow what can I say. These compaq computers work and work and work. I have bought several over the years and they are reliable dependable and keep on ticking! Prices are lower than HP and Dell. So what the Hell! I continue to buy Compaq and have been very happy. Hopefully you will too.

The Compaq Presario 6000 is based around the desktop Pentium 4 630 processor to give it very strong performance. This allows the notebook to be compatible with the latest Windows XP 64-bit OS, but sadly it is not an option on the system. This powerful desktop processor also limits the battery life of the computer system over the Pentium M notebook processors. It is matched up with 512MB of PC2-3200 DDR but it would be nice to see a faster PC2-4300 memory come standard.

Storage on the Presario 6000 is average for a desktop replacement. The standard 60GB 4200rpm lacks the space or speed of some...

Excellent all-around Desktop PC.

Fast

All the features+ that a standard internet user/student needs.

Price is very reasonable.

Customer service is easy to reach and friendly. I had a Dell before and this Compaq system far outshines the quality and service that they provide. I will stick with Compaq when I need to purchase new computers.

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 brands.

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 too!)

Never again will I own an HP of any type. If you can't deal with the constant issues, you will never live through their customer service.
