While Compaq offers the R3000 series with several configurations, featured our test machine for this review, an Intel Pentium 4 processor at 2.8 GHz and 512 MB of PC2700 DDR memory. Our 15.4-inch widescreen model, a 4200RPM Hitachi 40GB hard drive, ATI Radeon 9000 with integrated graphics and an internal Broadcom 802.11b / g mini-PCI card. Compaq sells the R3000 series with Microsoft Windows XP Home operating system, or how our system was configured withWindows XP Pro.
The 15.4-inch WXGA TFT wide screen running with a native resolution 1280x800. Compaq also offers the R3000 with the WSXGA + (1680x1050) and WUXGA (1920x1200) options, and a new "Brightview" version of the WXGA screen, which will provide a higher contrast image.
Rounded corners give the black and sliver Presario R3000 a sleek look, which is a very durable over a few months of use. The top and bottom of the computer are made of black plastic withof the middle section, including the keyboard and palm rest, finished in a thinner-feeling silver plastic. The underside of the housing has a solid rubber feet in each of the four corners and edges, presumably to help the heat dissipation.
The choice of a different design than other laptops, Compaq has most of the expansion ports and interfaces on both sides of the machine, rather than placed at the back. Anyone who is annoyed with a computer or turn around to get complicatedbehind it in a USB device Compaq appreciate design choice here. The only ports on the back of the computer are the legacy devices - one VGA monitor port, a parallel port and a telephone modem. Although we had no use for it, we were glad to see one parallel port, because many new laptops do not contain one, but many people and businesses do not have only parallel printer.
