Compaq Evo N610c Review

- WHAT'S HOT: The one-bay Evo N610c weighs 5.2 pounds (not including peripherals) and sports Compaq's silver, futuristic-looking Wi-Fi (802.11b) wireless MultiPort module on the lid. The N610c's dual pointing devices each have a set of baby-blue mouse buttons. The notebook's optical drive (a DVD-ROM/CD-RW combo at this $2248 price) is removable and can be swapped for a second battery or a second hard drive.

User Reviews for HP EVO N610C

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: good controls and keyboard

    Weaknesses: disk drive, power supply

    Overall Evaluation: In the past 18 months the hard drive had to be recovered once. The unit recently failed as I was using it. The green power LED doesn't come on with multiple compay laptop power supplies tried. First laptop I have ever owned that died like this. I had an old Compaq Armada 4020 laptop that still works fine after 8 years! This laptop runs pretty hot and I suspect that it might last longer if used with a fan tray under it.
