Compaq CQ-50 139WM Laptop

This is the HP Compaq CQ-50 139WM laptop computer, which has some nice features for the price. The key features include an average 2048MB DDR2 of memory and a 2.00 GHz Intel Celeron Processor 575 processor.
The hard drive has 160GB of storage and a 5400RPM, the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD uses shared memory (this is not the best option), and the screen looks great at 15.4-inches and featuring HP’s BrightView technology.
Hewlett-Packard’s CQ50 139WM runs on Windows Vista Home Basic and also features a SuperMulti 8X DVD±R/RW drive, 802.11b/g WLAN, Integrated Microphone, 3 USB ports, and a 6-Cell Lithium-Ion battery. While it’s not a high spec laptop, the price Walmart has today at $298 in-store is fantastic.

I bought this computer with the intention of getting rid of Vista and installing XP
What a mistake!!! It is all but impossible as Microsoft has found a way to shove Vista up our back sides…. DO NOT BUY THIS MACHINE if your intending on loading XP. Do your homework.
