      all round i would say the HP Compaq Armada is a good laptop. it is very fast and user friendly and easy to upgrade. however it seems to over heat at prolonged periods of use once in awile and only one usb port also the track point mouse is a pain but i just connect a external mouse to it so not a biggy.

      i only payed $160 for mine havent had many problems using it the internet is super fast the cd rom is so easy to pull out and switch devices im currently still running windows pro and would recomend keeping it that way not sure if it would handle xp but its fast the way it is i hope this was helpful would i buy it again? yes as long as it doesnt crash after typing this lol

      I bought this HP Compaq Armada M700 laptop used for $150, pretty good price considering this model sold for over $3000 new, came with 700MGH, 574 MG mem, 9HD and it works. I was expecting the thing to be dead so anything above that was a nice surprise. I use it for business. Personally, I wouldn't buy this computer again only because I believe the IBM Thinkpad, would be a better purchase for quality and popularity. But I can't really complain because for the most part, the laptop works and I fe ...

      Battery life is pretty good, PCmag got 3:18 battery life, I never got that but it's pretty close. Keyboard is acceptable. It's common enough so that the accessories are still available. Would I buy mine again, yes.

      The HP Compaq Armada M700
      Really nice Laptop PC easy to use keyboard, one person mentioned games not running, err I don't think a lappy is the right machine for that anyway?
      I run a Broadband internet connection on it and do all my work as well and have never had any problems. I have external HD's and printer, CD-Writer, Broadband all running and no slow down.
      The bits for this model are now really easy and cheap to get.
      Just get yourself a good (powered) 4 port USB hub as it only has the on ...

      The HP Compaq Armada M700 is the worst laptop I have ever owned! It has about 20GB, which is too small. The graphics card doesn't even have a chance of playing games that are only 2 years old.

      Don't buy this machine unless you are prepared to spend loads of money fixing it over and over again! Plus it is very delicate. I already had dead pixels within about a month of buying it!

      The HP Compaq Armada M700 is a great laptop! It has a very handy multibay where you can slot cd drives, dvd drives, batteries...etc in. It has a large screen which is very crisp and produces a high quality picture. I think the greatest thing about this laptop is: Its so easy to upgrade, your drives slot in and out (inc hard drive), easy access to ram (keyboard lifts off to reveal the ram sticks), overall brilliant quality and fantastic performance!

      I got my Armada m700 used from a Halliburton raffle. It works GREAT. It's my full time PC and I have pretty much retired my Desktop. I plan on uprgrading the Hard Drive and CD Drive...

      This Compaq Armada M700 is a super thin laptop with less weight (~5.5Kg) I guess and excellent performance.
      The only problem was it used to heat up pretty much and i get worried seeing that the cooling fan doesn't rotate. But anyway it didn't blow up. Glad about that :-)
