5.0 out of 5 stars Luv it, January 22, 2009

By	Otelia Mack "One Stop" (chicago, il USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased this laptop for my sister. We are very happy with it. The large screen and keyboard is fantastic. It's feels like a portable desktop.

I think I'll get rid of my desktop and purchase one for myself

4.0 out of 5 stars Presario CQ70 17 inch Laptop, January 6, 2009

By	Henry A. Gerken "Henry G" (Connecticut, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Purchased for 11 y.o. daughter and seems to be doing the job very well. Integrated camera works well and processor is certainly fast enough for what she needs it for. Value for dollar is very good and would purchase again if needed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Quality from HP/Compaq; Fast processor!, April 27, 2009

By	Daddio "Daddio" (NWUS) - See all my reviews

One of the nicer laptops I've owned, with a big screen. Solid construction; owned since July of 2008. Newer Intel graphics driver (04-09) displays terrific quality, too. Dual screen w/VGA adapter is fine, too.

DVD drive is noisy and a little clunky, and I wish I had a 1GB Ethernet port. My wireless connection is faster than the installed 100MB, so I use that. And, as usual, an obnoxious bundle of useless software comes pre-installed. Just have to uninstall it, clean up the registry, and you're good to go.
