Compaq Presario C300

Great all-rounder for the “average” user. Good CPU/Memory combination gives the laptop reasonable speed and power for everyday applications and uses. It has a particularly nice and vivid 15.4” widescreen TFT. Compaq laptops, are of course, very well made, stylish and reliable. If you’re looking for value for money, it’s going to be hard to beat at this price. Good choice if you are buying one as a gift.
