Extraordinary machine
A compaq Evo N610c notebook came into my possession in 2008, when it was 5 or 6 years old, and I already had another computer as my daily driver. I spent a couple bucks to get the W200 wireless module and a ram upgrade, gave it an old hard disk I had lying around, and if I didn't already have a newer laptop, I would just use the Evo. It has unbelievable battery life, a brilliant screen capable of 1400 by 1050 resolution, very useful shortcut keys and buttons, and countless other features. I truly believe it was designed better than my newer laptop... The hinge isn't too stiff or too loose, it has very easy access to ram, HDD, and the multibay, etc. I would recommend this laptop to anyone, and with XP pro, 1.25g of ram, and integrated wireless, it is just as capable in today's business world as it was in 2002.

Your personal opinion with no stats to back your negative rating. It is possible that you've had a bad experience with this laptop while I've had a great one. COnsistently lasted through a couple of years and still going strong. While HW appears to be the problem in most cases, it is actually technology that updates and leaves the HW behind. Knowing the correct solutions and patches and updates cures this 99% of the time. The laptop is fine for the pricing on it!

Great Laptop Great Price
I got this laptop used and it works great. The only problem was that the orginal battery did not work and the seller quickly corrected the problem. The laptop does not come with much on it so I am trying to install programs. I am considering updating the laptop because it is a few years old.
