Advantages: Great screen size, RAM and all the inbuilt and outbuilt features

Disadvantages: Price

The HP compaq mobile workstation is trully a mobile workstaion keeping up with it's title. This 8710 series has everything you can ask for in a notebook machine.

I had been using mostly Dell laptops in the past but the sleek look and the 17 inch widescreen attracted my attention and so I thought of switching over to HP Compaq.

I had to struggle with the keys initially because I wasn't used to the sensitive keyboard and the cursor would keep flying off here and there while I was typing. But soon I got the hang of the touch pad and the keys alike and working on this machine became a child's play.

The 2 GB RAM is mpre than sufficient. All the features are inbuilt in this computer with a smartcard for wireless network, a bluetooth provided with the system and a DVD burner and player.

The speed at 2.4 GHZ is great and it makes working on this machine very smooth and you can accomplish all your tasks swiftly.

I have enjoyed games and watching movies on this computer monitor and the 17 inch screen serves it's purpose upto the mark.

It is a little too pricey coming at around 1200 pounds but it's a computer to keep for the long run.

Summary: A good computer for the long run!
