Pros: internet keyboard, customized computer color, upgrades easily
Cons: 64 mb of ram isn't enough. Need to upgrade video card for high graphics games.
The Bottom Line: Buy one, if you primarily want to use it to surf the internet and if you want good customer service and support.

| pengy's Full Review: Compaq Presario 5BW130 (180504-003) PC Desktop |
A great internet surfing computer. This is the best computer that I have ever owned (I've owned five computers over the past eight years). Very easy to set up and easy to understand guide books. Great features, such as the internet keyboard with hot keys for launching internet related programs such as email programs and web browsers; the ability to customize the color of the computer in one of five colors (or you can purchase additional color kits and change the color of the computer with your mood or with the seasons). Good value for the money. Nice pre-loaded software including anti-virus, office suite, and internet software. It is relatively easy to upgrade as well (such as adding ram or adding a video card). It has plenty of extra ports and bays for adding components and peripherals. Compaq also has a good warranty and good technical assistance.
