Pros: speed when surfing, quick restore, large storage Cons: Heavy, freezes up
This past April, I found myself in the market for a new computer. My old one was slow, forever giving me error readings and finally just died. So off I went to Office Max looking for a new computer. After a long debate on what I actually needed and...

I own two Compaq systems at home and this is one of them so I'd like to give you my input about this unit and how it runs!
When I first decided to buy this unit, I was a little skeptical because I was always told that anything with a Celeron...

Pros: Well Built, Solid, Simple to use, Good Support Cons: Hangs up Occasionally
When I started to look at the new computers on the market, I first looked at Compaq. I had owned one for several years (and still do) with few problems. The large insurance company I work for uses Compaq as their computer of choice for desktop work...

Pros: At the time of purchase, it was a great deal. Cons: sluggish, freezes often, HEAVY
Let me warn you now, I am disgruntled. I lovingly nurtured this computer for a year, and then it turned on me.
My dad bought me this computer for college two years ago. We searched high and low (within the confines of the military base...

Pros: Price, feature set, setup and utilities Cons: Size, deceptive expansion potential
The Compaq Presario 5724 is an attractive blend of features for a mainstream home system. It includes a quick CD-ROM/DVD, 56 K v .90 modem, and a 100 Meg Zip drive in addition to a nice sized 12 Meg hard disk and 3.5" floppy and soundblaster...

Pros: Comes with a zip drive Cons: locks up frequently, get a lot of Illegal Operation errors
My Compaq computer is the absolute worst computer purchase that I have ever made. I have regretted getting it from the first day. Many problems have plagued this computer that I have not experienced with computers that I have owned in the past. ...

Pros: value-performance-packed CPU Cons: crashes, reboots, close windows, etc. a lot
The Compaq Presario 5724 that I found had a great price!
I went to Best Buy and found it for $999, then two days later at $949.
Two weeks later, I went back and found it at $899, so I decided to buy it.
This Compaq is relatively large and...

Pros: Very Fast Internet Access Cons: Freezes often
After having many problems with a brand new NEC system, I took it back to the retail store where I purchased it and was offered the Presario 5724, because the store would not refund my money. Honestly, This machine is fast. I enjoy its Internet ease...

Pros: Nice Make and Model Cons: Must run Quick Restore ALL THE TIME!
This specific Compaq model is a nice one even I must admit. I do not recommend buying this model if you have better options. I bought mine about 6 1/2 months ago and I am still "paying" for it...I am not one to buy on time... But it is...
