David, re Just bot a 1220 Presario notebook. Great machine for what I need it for at an unbelievable price point.. Once again, no cache, a dual scan display, Nickel metal hi-dri battery, no place removable bay to slip in a zip drive, and no mic though it does have speakers..
Compaq is cutting corners to hit the price points. My notbook has what the average person wants and needs. 200MMX processor (AMD) 32 megs of ram (16 on the board, one slot taken up with 16 meg dim), "large" 12.1 inch screen, 56 bkps modem internal not a card, touchpad, disk drive and CD built into the unit not swapping....
How do you like that machine? I'm on the verge of ordering something similar, maybe that same model. The prices are incredible. nwcd.com has that model 1220 for $1,399. What I'm wondering is, how is the screen? Clear enough? Does it feel fast, compared to say a classic P100? |
