Why I like this computer.

I recently purchased a HP Compac business notebook. I am very satified with this product, reason being its very light weight and portable. The processor is very fast for such a small computer, since there is no cd drive the battery power last longer...

Great performance, small but robust, no-nonsense notebook

At 3.5 pounds, this is a sweet, small business notebook that performs well, has excellent battery life, and feels solid. You must accept lack of built-in CD drive. I haven't missed it because it saves the weight, battery life, and it's quieter. I've...

HP Compaq Business Notebook nc4010 (Pentium M Processor 725 1.6GHz, 256MB RAM)

Solid performance; lightweight design; comfortable keyboard; touch pad and pointing stick; configurable

Very limited battery life

The HP Compaq Business Notebook nc4010 has satisfying features and performance, but it lacks the battery life to support a true road warrior.

"Hardware reliability an issue"

My laptop has gone to the service center 2 times within 3 months. I have changed 2 motherboards and 1 harddisk. Seems like it also has heat issues. My laptop gets really slow after a while and I have to place the 2 edges with some blocks to cool the...
