| tpkick's Full Review: Compaq Presario 7940 (154934-003) PC Desktop |
In my opinion the Compaq Presario 7940 would fail if evaluated against any other personal computer in it's class. The new retro look it resembles is appealing to the eye, but are you getting what you are paying for? NO!!!
I have to hand to the makers of Compaq, there prices are unbeatable, but I am not sure if it is worth saving a few hundred dollars. I think I would rather buy a more advanced computer and pay extra for a better quality computer.
The makers of Compaq put a very nice package together with the purchase of one of their computers. For instance, my father just purchased this same computer and his package included the monitor, the highest and fastest running machine at this time, a printer, a scanner and a digital video camera (in order to have images directly onto your computer screen). Sounds great, but that's not all he also got so many refunds towards his purchase by the time he was done he paid half of what he paid in the store.
Now at the same time, upon starting the computer for the first time, after inserting all the necessary information into the computer for proper usage, it was having diagnostic problems and it would not start up. So before investing in a Compaq computer think twice and choose a Dell, that is the computer I have and I love.
