    Good price on that. I'll wait a year and get one at 24-26" for $200 though. #hpcompaql2105tm

    Will the monitor work with XP? I know the touch won't, right? #hpcompaql2105tm

    In reply to Compaq Presario CQ61 Isn't a Netbook, It Is a Full On Laptop For $400
    We picked up an AMDx2 Compaq laptop a couple years back for my wife for around $420 w/ tax. It wasn't too speedy with Vista, but with 7 (and the Aero ram thing resolved) it cooks.

    The number one problem "cheap" laptops have is a slow drive. If the laptop was mine I would swap out the hd for one with some more speed, but she insists its fine.

    @goaliegeek: They're still made and they're great. I'm typing this on a four and a half year old Compaq notebook. Running Windows 7 and it's running great.

    @USB_Humping_Dog: I'm not so sure about that. While this trounces them in specs, it does so at a much larger size.

    Also, Compaqs and HP's in general don't seem to get very good battery life, especially their lower end CQ's, because of their meager batteries. I'd like to know how much playtime this thing could actually allow, especially the 14.

    @Kaiser-Machead: Well, granted, but isn't the inexpensive nature of netbooks (and not the portability) the very essence of their sellability?

    I have absolutely NO complaints about my Verizon internet service- and I'm on DSL. Hopefully I'll be happy with FIOS when they finally get around to digging up my front yard.
