... I found this machine on Ebay for £350. Although secondhand this machine feels and looks brand new. I have MS XP with a 15inch monitor, P2 - 400mhz with a 320mb of ram, 5.5gb hard drive. The ram has been updated as I believe its alot lower than that. But anyway...as I have never had a laptop then I don't know whats fast to load etc. Anyway I received the laptop and really like all laptops from compaq its very slim. The design isn't trendy but do they need to be? Its your basic looking style of laptop: Black ...more

After alot of searching and weighing up the odds I found this machine on Ebay for ...

I had an upgrade in work to the Compaq Armada E500 and I was really looking forward to its arrival as the Compaq has quite a good name. The first thing that struck me was how slim the notebook is at only 1.6 inches thick. The only thing then is that you think its light but at 5.7 pounds you know you have it in your hands. With a 15 inch screen I thought it would be a strain on the eyes but no its quite adequate and the resolution is great given by a AGP 2X graphics with 8 Mb Sdram.
