General Comments
I have had my HP Compaq Presario 1200 laptop since my dad bought it for me for a graduation present from grade 8. It's been a great laptop since then. I have dropped it about 5 times, had the screen break but replaced for 50 bucks on eBay. I still get about 2 hours worth of battery life with the original battery. The floppy door guard broke off. Other than that it's been great. Good quality laptop for homework, and the Command and Conquer Red Alert 2 game works great with it.
Even though this is my first and only laptop, I think that it is a great one.
