Compaq Presario 440 Notebook: An Amazing Laptop

If you are looking for a great mid-grade notebook computer, than I'm sure you have encountered several problems, the first of these problems is that most mid-grade laptop computers are barely outfitted with the features that you need in order to operate in your daily computer life. And another downside to most mid-grade laptops is that the processor and operating system is slow and sometimes unpredictable.

However, there are several mid-grade notebooks that aren't a waste of money, and time - they actually perform with some of the greatest laptops available. One of these notebook computers that are amazing, but don't have an out-of-this-world price, is the Compaq Presario Notebook with Intel Celeron M Processor 440, Model: C551NR.

One of the greatest features this laptop gives its users is the processor. You get the Intel Celeron M processor 440, that comes with a total of 533MHz on the front side bus, and a 1MB L2 cache with 1.86GHz processor speed. Also, this computer has an 80GB Serial ATA hard drive that comes with a total rpm of 5400. This machine will give you the ultimate in mid-grade processing power and reliability. Two things that are very important when considering a new laptop computer. This computer not only runs great but also looks fantastic. This is due to the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 that comes with a shared video memory up to 64MB.

Another great feature this computer gives its users is easy access to high-speed USB ports. You get a total of 2 USB 2.0 ports, that give you extremely fast digital video, data and audio transfers. This is perfect if you are planning on using this computer for your digital camera or other digital media electronics.

Needing to connect to the Internet? Well, the answer to that is a resounding, "YES," and with this computer you can do so instantly with the built-in high-speed wireless LAN, 802.11b/g. However, if you don't have wireless internet access, don't worry, you also have the options of connection through the 10/100Base-T Ethernet LAN or even through a 56 Kbps high-speed modem, for those of you who are the more traditional Internet users.

However, I believe the greatest feature that this computer gives you is the state-of-the-art operating system. You will be able to easily navigate to your files and folders with the Microsoft Windows Vista Home Basic Edition. This OS is completely packed with various software titles, which include HP Photosmart Essentials, Microsoft Works and Roxio Creator 9 Basic - just to name a few. You definitely will not be sacrificing any type of performance quality just because you chose a mid-grade laptop computer.

As I said earlier, buying a notebook computer that is reasonably priced can be frustrating. But with this computer this problem is completely eliminated. And with a average price of $600.00, there is no reason why you can't have a world-class laptop computer. Don't dream of being able to have a portable computer, but actually get one. You'll be surprised that this computer is a mid-grade, I was.
