The Compaq Presario M2000Z (now marketed by HP) is generally known to be quite a good all-round notebook computer. It’s 1.6-GHz AMD CPU provides enough processing power to perform basic computing functions, and its 24X CD Burner along with an 8X DVD Combo gives the M2000Z better optical drive capabilities than most notebooks the same price range.
If you don’t mind the lack of built-in wireless connectivity, and low RAM to match the low price tag, this budget-concious Presario might just be the notebook for you.
