HP Compaq Presario Desktop Computer —
I had an old Compaq that a friend gave me for my kids. I reformatted it and cleaned it all out. This thing is 11 years old and still going. My mother used it for a couple of years and decided she needed a newer model. A couple of years ago I had bought a new Presario and have never had any problems with it at all. So that is what we looked at. She got the bundle of everything she needed for under $700.00. What a nice set. Now I am thinking I want another one of these after being on hers and setting it up.
