Compaq Presario CQ5500F Desktop PC

Worked well for a few months

Starting to "black out" and it's not 2 years old

I can't believe how fast it came....I took the free 3 day shipping..ordered it monday at lunch time and it came this morning! So far it's great..faster than what I had...booted right up and running great

no cons yet

Light, Mega memory, both RAM and harddrive, outstanding DVD writer, very fast at an excellent price

No dual core processor

none at all

needs faster CPU not fast enought waYYYYY to slow and needs cheaper price and free shipping

The price is what notched this up from a 3 star rating to a 4. As it's been pointed out, you can't beat this price. My love bought it as a make due while I gut my tower and revamp it. It runs most games decently and could support WOW with the graphics...

So, naturally there's a few problems. Should have had XP, not 7. It just doesn't have the hardware to support such hardware intensive usage from 7. Causes huge lag and multi-tasking is difficult. Win7 is having some Java compat issues, making it...

Single core proccesor

Quick, updated. BIOS is the latest version, drivers and hardware are all fully functional. Very well taken care of machine, glad to have purchased and so is my customer. Thank you

Paid for three day shipping, received in a bit more than a week. Definitely disappointed about that as it made me look bad in front of my customers

Fairly light, cheap, extremely quiet, very fast for simple tasks such as Microsoft Office and internet browsing, the side of the case is very easy to take off (1 screw), everything is very easy to access inside the case

None so far
