It is a strong machine. It can take a bullet. I would call it a portable PC. As long as one has muscles and good will this machine can move around with its user. Still it can be positively heavy in a briefcase or a bag.

My Presario 2100 was actually a replacement for my 1700 model which crashed so many times. I had no problems with it for about a month until it crashed.

after 4 months of owning...

I got it for $700 with a celeron 1.7G in 02/2003. I can't expect more with so such money. Remember Compaq built the world first laptop, you are assured to use it with confidence. (read more)
