The CQ61Z is just another HP Compaq laptop that belongs to the Presario line. It was recently announced by HP and it can feature various processors, be it an AMD Sempron single core M100, or an ADM dual core CPU (M300, M320, and more).

ATI is responsible for the graphics department with its HD 4200, but I bet the 4GB of DDR3 memory will also be a good help. The display screen measures 15.6-inches, and the hard-drive space can go up to 500GB. The default model comes with a DVD burner but you can opt for a Blu-ray drive.

Other features of the HP Compaq Presario CQ61Zinclude a VGA output, HDMI as optional, and Windows 7 Home Premium as the OS.

Compaq has joined the fresh market of netbooks, and decided to reveal their new Mini 700 computer that is pretty similar to the HP Mini 100 - not only in terms of features, but also on the design and name.

Anyhow, one of the main differences between the two netbooks is the option of a HSDPA modem on the Mini 700 from Compaq. The other important detail is the price, it is close to $490 which is less $150 than the HP product. Another difference is the launch date, which in Compaq’s case will be made late this year in December, on the UK.

General Specifications:

- Intel Atom N270 1.6Ghz processor
- From 512MB up to 2GB of memory RAM

Circuit City has recently added a new Compaq laptop to their online catalog, the Presario CQ70. The real price of the notebook is $730, but adding the rebates of $120 and $30 makes the price drop to $580, which in the end is a really nice price.

The HP Compaq Presario V3000T delivers an impressive blend of style and portability. Like the dv2000 systems, this one has a whole new look, with a shiny, brushed-silver finish on the outside and a sleek, black resin finish inside. You’ll also be quick to notice the sporty grille above the keyboard, which houses the Altec Lansing speakers. Some may prefer the dv2000t because of its built-in webcam, but you won’t find a better budget dual-core notebook than the V3000T.

The V3000T is powered by Intel’s 1.6-GHz Core Duo T2050 with 512MB of DDR2 memory. A MobileMark 2005 score of 208 with Wi-Fi enabled is just average for this class of notebook; a bump up to a 2-GHz chip and another 512MB of RAM will provide a significant performance boost but will set you back an additional $200. Also, multimedia enthusiasts will likely find the 60GB hard drive too small for storing lots of digital audio and video files.

Wireless throughput was decent, with the V3000T averaging 12.7 Mbps at a distance of 15 feet from our access point, and 11.7 Mbps at 50 feet. The V3000T offers plenty of connectivity options, including three USB ports, FireWire, VGA, and S-Video outputs, and an Expansion port connector. There’s also a 5-in-1 memory card reader.
