Does anyone have any real bad experience with Compaq laptops/notebooks, or have heard anything real bad about them?
I'm talking in terms of build quality, service, customer support etc.
I have never owned a laptop before, but I plan on purchasing the Compaq V2110 model soon. It has a 1.3 GHZ Celeron M 350 processor, 512 MB RAM, 40GB Harddrive and a 14.0" screen. To me, these are all I need for my uses: mainly to do schoolwork, browse the net, a little bit of programming with Java.
Should I spend an extra $350 canadian or so to get a model with a Pentium M processor (and a 60GB harddrive and a DVD burner) instead? Is Celeron M going to be a lot slower than a Pentium CPU?
