Compaq presario laptop

Filed under: Tech news — admin @ 2:41 am

Desktops are vanishing fast from the world and this process would start in india in 2 years time. I am currently searching for a perfect laptop for me and after seeing various brands, i felt Compaq wouldCompaq Presario Laptop work the best. I saw lenovo (pricy !), acer (good), Dell (why to pay unnecessarily for Vista). Finally HP and compaq, and i have selected Compaq presario 773TU.

Main features of Compaq presario (model – 773TU) :

Core 2Duo mobile processor.

~ 1.8 Ghz

2 GB RAM

15.4 inch

Price – INR 37,500 (bargained :) ) ~ USD 975

I am removing my desktop and that is why i haven’t blogged for few days. Also opting for BSNL broadband connection (I am in India). Laptops aren’t that cheap as i thought :(
