Compaq Presario C700t User Review

The Compaq Presario C700T is HP's current budget 15.4" widescreen notebook. It is available with limited configuration on-line from HP.com and is also available in retail stores. In case you see a few of them popping up on eBay it was recently offered as one of Best Buy's door buster specials this holiday season. In a nutshell, I'd liken the C700T to Dell's Vostro 1000 with a budget Intel processor.
