Unlike many of my friends, I have very little interest in playing computer games. While many of them have customized their own desktops by adding fans and special graphics cards to the mix, I much prefer being outside or reading a good novel. On the other hand, I do enjoy downloading music and listening to it on my laptop. I must also confess to a weakness for watching DVDs on a 16-inch laptop screen.

So, when my old laptop finally crapped out after three years of wear and tear, I wasn’t sure where to turn. It seemed that most of the high-end computers in stores were geared toward gaming geeks and professionals rather than a casual computer user such as myself. All I really needed from the device was an easy way to surf the Web, play music and watch movies. The Compaq Presario met all those needs without tacking on unnecessary extras and the inflated price tag that goes with them.
