Which Laptop To Choose From?! by TRYGO(op): 8:43am On Oct 13, 2019
Hi guys. I need your opinion on what laptop to choose from these brands:
1. HP
2. COMPAQ
3. DELL.

All have 2.0Ghtz; 4.0G, and...

What do I need the laptop for?
The purpose is to replaced my existing Dell inspiron 5050, and to have a system just for typing, downloads of PDF for research purposes. Something that's basically fast. I'm not interested in using it for movie downloads, etc.

Both Dell and the HP had no Intel inside, whilst the Compaq has something called ADC our so, and Intel altogether inside.

My concerns?
1. Y are Compaq laptops extremely hot during operation?
Is that because of the ADC something inside, or?



Your responses are highly welcomed.
I'm not a laptop geek, so your corrections as regards jargons used would be appreciated too.


Regards

Chief... Compaq is simply a rebadged HP.
HP or Dell any of the 2 are great laptops you can use.
They are the most popular i think so U wnt be making a mistake if you chose any one of them....
Ensure U buy one u can expand d ram to 8gig or higher sef.
Then u go need atleast 1 terabyte hard disk o for softwares, documents and all.

I have a HP beads laptop, and a Dell inspiron. Dell has faulty motherboard, while the HP has got keyboard issues too.

The HP is 1terrabite.

What's your stake on Toshiba, @automoto?
