COMPAQ PRESARIO V3000 DRIVER SERIES
Having used a Compaq v2000 series laptop, I must say the v3000 is a definite improvement in the build quality department. The hinges are covered in plastic and I am not sure if it runs through the entire length of the laptop, but overall the hinges do feel solid and there is no movement in the screen when typing and it holds its position even when shaken a bit hard. There aren’t any little squeaks or creeks when the laptop is picked up from any corner, but the screen produces some ripples when the lid is pressed hard from behind. The build quality is very good for a laptop in this price range. *The v3000z I purchased was upgraded to 2GB of RAM aftermarket. Total Price (after MIR & student discount) = $960 including tax.Super Multi 8X DVD+/-R/RW w/Double Layer Support.14.1″ WXGA BrightView Widescreen (1280 x 800).Since I ordered mine custom built from HP, the specifications will vary. The V3000z is available in custom build to order and also pre-configured versions should be available in retail stores soon. The time taken was a bit longer than I expected but given that the laptop was just introduced, longer build time is to be expected. I placed the order on June 10 th, the order was processed and completed on the 21 st and it shipped on the same date and arrived on the 26 th of June. The ordering experience was pleasant without any issues. The lid does show some reflections yet hides fingerprints quite well ( view large image ) The v3000z struck the right balance for my requirements.Ī list of similar/Competing laptops to the V3000Z are:Ī typical buyer of such a notebook would probably be looking for a laptop which is both mobile yet does not sacrifice performance or important features.
