Archived Computer Hardware Reviews

Pros: Quiet, quality printing
Cons: none

I bought an HP 832c printer a few years back and I have to say that, I have seen many people with more updated printers and none of them do as good of a job as my HP 832c! Now it is important for me to add that I am using it with a Webtv plus (MSNTV)...

Pros: good batteries and processor
Cons: warranty only covers select things

I bought one of these about a year ago and it has given me some problems. Every time I try to get help from gateway they tell me my warranty doesn't cover it and I bought a full 3 year warranty. I have had to pay to get problems taken care of that...

Pros: Outstanding visual quality
Cons: Menu button nipple is can be painful after prolonged use !

This is an outstanding piece of hardware.

Running on a Dell GX300 667Mhz with a Nvidia Geforce2 GTS 64Mb card make this quite the best system for what ever you to do.

At 1600x1200 and 75 Mhz on the refresh, mine is completely...

Pros: Superb System and Service.
Cons: No Workstation Model for power users.

Back in 1995, I purchased a Micron PC: Millenia Max. After 2 years of a great use, my mother board had burned itself up and wouldn't cooperate any more. I thought to myself, "Should I dump this PC and buy a new "Dell"? I have decided to...

Pros: Priced affordably with attractive features
Cons: Processor a tad bit slow, floppy drive hard to get to

I am not one to recommend products lightly, but the 1605 is impressive for both the price and the features that are included. It has many improvements over the previous Satellites- namely that the modem plug is recessed rather than flipping out where it...

Pros: cheap
Cons: LOUD, short battery life, stiff pointing device, not enough memory

try before you buy. that's the lesson i learned from this experience. the price was good, about 800 for a refurb unit, and i had been happy with a refurbed mac powerbook that i bought from an online auction, people have said good things about toshiba...

Pros: TV output, DVD, bright TFT screen, PIII cpu
Cons: average battery life of 2.5 hours at full power

The Toshiba Satellite 2755DVD was the first laptop I've ever purchased. I have owned a number of desktop computers, and I am quite adept at constructing a computer from parts, as I have worked in the technical department of a small computer manufacturing...

Pros: good machine, great service
Cons: well, everyone company makes some lemon machines

I bought a Gateway laptop a little over a year ago. I was leaving for college, and I wanted a powerful machine that would last me for four years. So I spent a fortune on a the top of the line machine at the time. So you can imagine how upset I was...

Pros: Big Hard Drive, Great Speed, Cute Design, Affordable
Cons: mine came with a trekker mouse and I prefer intellipoint

I wanted a new computer. I had a Pentium 100. This was a major upgrade. And getting a Gateway was the best thing I've don't. It's a great computer and it's logo is cowlike and I love cows. So that was an added bonus. This computer works great and has a...

Pros: Screen, keyboard, battery life, build, price, features
Cons: Not very many

Laptops? I've had a few. But then again, too few to mention. Some bit off more than they could chew...

Laptop computers epitomise the science of compromise. I've always felt that when it comes to computing there are three things that should...

Pros: Looks great on surface
Cons: Very deep rooted emotional trauma will occur

After toiling over a dozen websites, wandering aimlessly through countless computer and retail stores, I finally decided to go for the gateway. Not only is it a very dependable product, but it also has a great warranty program. The sad thing is, the...

Pros: good design great for a student
Cons: could be a couple pounds lighter

My school has a policy this year. Every student must have a computer to use aside from the computers in the computer lab. The main reason is that their is always a line out the door in the computer lab. I have my old PC that is barely good for word...

Pros: Very Reliable
Cons: Price

We've been using a Micron Millenia Basic for about a year. It's great! I've had no problems with the computer itself and have been very pleased with Micron in general. The computers are well priced and well built. Micron's customer service is one of...

Pros: Motherboard, Chip Set, Tower Design
Cons: Higher Cost for Peace of Mind

I own three Micron computers. I bought my first in 1996 and have upgraded the processor and hard drive in that machine and it is still in use. I purchased a Millennia Max 667 in December 1999 for home and a Millennia Max 800 for my office in August of...

Pros: Looks good. - warranty- tech support is good
Cons: too many system problems

We purchased the Gateway Essential 566 at the end of July. It arrived only 6 days later and I was thrilled! We upgraded to the 17" moniter and added the CD R/W and DVD drive. I was so happy until only about 5 days later , the mouse started to act...
