Good Basic Computer

Jan 28, 2004 - By Amazon Customer

This is a good basic computer. The price is right for 120GB and 512RAM. This is a big step up from my Windows Me Emachines. I love it up to this point.

Don't do it!!!

Apr 14, 2004 - By jack (Ohio)

I recently decided to upgrade from my Compaq Presario 400Mhz I bought a good 5 years ago. Thinking the 2.7 GHz and 512MB (plus an extra 256MB) would be great. I am totally disappointed!!

The Compaq Presario S5200NX is by far a waste of money. It is slower than you can imagine and the technical service from Compaq/HP is ZERO !

I am without a doubt totally disappointed, my only option at this point is to either purchase a new processor and see if that speeds it up or buy another computer. Since I have only had this for a couple months neither choice truely appeals to me.

If in the market for a new computer...DON'T BUY A COMPAQ PRESARIO S5200NX !!
