Pros: Great set of features for the money! And XP Pro instead of Home Edition Cons: Keyboard does not have a high quality feel. USB 1.1 - would prefer faster 2.0
UPDATE July 2004: Coming up on 1 year and this laptop has worn very well. Absolutely no problems, and I have dragged it around the country a few times. I am still happy with my purchase. Features (Presario 2175us): - AMD Athlon XP-M 2400 processor ...
Pros: Nice value, XP Pro, battery life, bright 15" screen. Cons: Tech support needs much improvement. See "TECH SUPPORT" section.

Pros: Thin and light for its class. Windows XP Pro, wireless networking. Great Price. Cons: No Floppy drive included as USB nor internal. USB only v1.1

It was great....for two years by mariorf ,May 04 '05
Pros: Great Screen
Fast for processing and CD burning Cons: Defective design of the motherboard
Great processor speed, 512MB of RAM and very portable.
After two years the connector to the Power Adapter became loose and eventually fell off. Unfortunately to replace the motherboard, it would have cost the same as a new computer.
The computer only last two years. For that, I'll give it 2 out 5.
Decent Laptop for the money you pay by ny_dude_2001 ,Sep 30 '03
Pros: Less noise from fan, XP pro , screen has good resolution. Cons: Average keyboard (too light)..
I bought this laptop after a lot of thinking and discussions. I will review the main aspects of this laptop. The Athlon XP processor is better than the P4 as the fan does on go on all the time. The p4 is a desktop processor and it heats up quickly causing the fan to switch on most of time, making some noise. The price is awesome with lots of rebates (bestbuy). USB floppy drive comes for free after a rebate.
The keyboard has some problems. It is too light. Unless you hit some keys hard they are not going to show up....
