Compaq great for new and old users alike

by maddi Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Nov 12 '00
Pros: speed when surfing, quick restore, large storage
Cons: Heavy, freezes up
This past April, I found myself in the market for a new computer. My old one was slow, forever giving me error readings and finally just died. So off I went to Office Max looking for a new computer. After a long debate on what I actually needed and...

It Was Time For An Update, Compaq Right Choice

Pros: Well Built, Solid, Simple to use, Good Support
Cons: Hangs up Occasionally

Never again

by mythicalc , Jan 09 '00
Pros: Comes with a zip drive
Cons: locks up frequently, get a lot of Illegal Operation errors
My Compaq computer is the absolute worst computer purchase that I have ever made. I have regretted getting it from the first day. Many problems have plagued this computer that I have not experienced with computers that I have owned in the past.

Pros: value-performance-packed CPU
Cons: crashes, reboots, close windows, etc. a lot
The Compaq Presario 5724 that I found had a great price!

Two weeks later, I went back and found it at $899, so I decided to buy it.
This Compaq is relatively large and...

Pros: Very Fast Internet Access
Cons: Freezes often
After having many problems with a brand new NEC system, I took it back to the retail store where I purchased it and was offered the Presario 5724, because the store would not refund my money. Honestly, This machine is fast. I enjoy its Internet ease...

Bought one and now regretting it

by Brianna_Nymph , Feb 02 '00
Pros: Nice Make and Model
Cons: Must run Quick Restore ALL THE TIME!
This specific Compaq model is a nice one even I must admit. I do not recommend buying this model if you have better options. I bought mine about 6 1/2 months ago and I am still "paying" for it...I am not one to buy on time... But it is...
