For its price the HP Compaq Presario CQ60-615DX looks very professional. Bearing a glossy finish lid with black screen bezel and silver keyboard bezel, the laptop looks like something far more expensive. There's plenty of space for the keyboard keys and it even comes with a numeric keypad. Typing on the keyboard is very comfortable while the touch-pad is smooth and responsive something which only a few netbooks can offer. The HP Compaq Presario CQ60-615DX's 15.6 inch display is bright and clear while the chassis is fairly solid. At 6.2 pounds it does weigh a bit more than your average 15.6 inch laptop but the build quality more than makes up for it.
Powered by an Intel Celeron 900 processor and 2GB of DDR2 memory the HP Compaq Presario CQ60-615DX is more or less as powerful as most netbooks. However its older Intel GMA 4500MHD integrated graphics is still equal if not better than most netbooks, unless you're talking about the ION powered ones. Thanks to the displays 1366 x 768 pixel resolution you can watch up to 720p HD video which is relatively smooth using the integrated graphics. A 250GB hard disk drive offers a good amount of storage while its DVD burner offers allows DVD playback and archiving, something which no netbook can do.
Other features on the HP Compaq Presario CQ60-615DX include good Altec Lansing speakers and wireless-n wi-fi connectivity. Other connections include three USB ports, a VGA port and an RJ-45 Ethernet LAN port. Performance is good so long as you don't multi task or use too many different applications at one go. This fits with a basic netbook performance but the extra features and space offers a bit more functionality than any netbook you can find on the market. While the laptop does run on a Windows 7 Home Premium operating system it is responsive as long as you treat it just like a netbook allowing it to run most office applications and surf the Internet.
Overall, the HP Compaq Presario CQ60-615DX is a good basic 15.6 inch laptop that rivals most performance netbooks in price as well as performance. This makes it ideal for the basic user who doesn't need more than a netbook but wants something with a larger screen and a DVD drive.
