Atom-powered Compaq Presario CQ2009F desktop now on sale
Posted in: desktop, HP, nettop, Today's Chili
Compaq Presario’s got a new 4.41- x 10.71- x 9.69-inch box for your consideration, and it goes by CQ2009F. ‘Course, those following the scene in Taiwan probably know it better as the mini-Q, but apparently the model name had to be purged of any personality before being introduced to America. The so-called nettop (or maybe mini tower is more fitting here) houses an Intel Atom 230 CPU, 1GB of DDR2 RAM, GMA 950 graphics set, a 160GB 7,200RPM hard drive, Ethernet, integrated audio, a 6-in-1 card reader, a few USB 2.0 ports, VGA output and loads of additional software that you’ll have to quickly uninstall upon arrival. You’ll find Windows XP running the show, and the built-in DVD burner should handle the storage duties. Nah, performance junkies won’t find much (read: anything) to love, but who wouldn’t appreciate the $269.99 price tag?
