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.

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.

To start with, the Presario CQ70 boasts an Intel processor - Pentium Dual Core 2GHz - and 3GB of DDR2 RAM memory. The screen is in the high category of 17-inches and thanks to the GMA 4500MHD graphics processor you’ve got a 1440×990 resolution. The hard-drive of the CQ70 can store 205GB of data, and the connectivity options include WiFi (802.11a/b/g/n) and 3 USB ports.

A DVD burner + VGA port + full-sized keyboard is also included in the sweet deal.
