The HP Compaq Presario CQ60-615DX is a basic computer with a basic price tag. The CQ60 retails for about $350.00 in most stores, but consumers can check online for sales and special offers, such as free shipping. This wireless Internet laptop has a nice design and enough capability to perform basic tasks. However, the processor is only of the single core variety and there is no Webcam or media card reader on board.
The Compaq Presario CQ60-615DX has a 2.2 GHz Intel Celeron processor, comes with 2 GB of RAM, and has a 250 GB Serial ATA-150 7200-rpm hard drive. The bright, crisp display is a roomy 15.6 inches and contains integrated Intel graphics for a great video-watching experience. These specifications are not bad, considering this laptop retails for less than $400.00. The Altec Lansing stereo speakers are loud and clear enough for movie watching, but do not contain the depth required for a quality listening environment when it comes to music.

This rather heavy 6.2-pound laptop has a sturdy feel, keyboard and dedicated number pad that are very comfortable to use. The touchpad is recessed and has an only slightly glossy finish that eliminates the drag common when using high-gloss touchpads. The Presario CQ60-615DX has a single-core processor, similar to Netbooks, which keeps its price down but also limits the amount of multitasking it can do. Mobile internet is a key area where HP did not cut corners on this laptop. The device has wireless N support that is more commonly found on high-level models.
As far as negative aspects go, the Presario CQ60-615DX does not have a media card reader slot or Webcam and the mouse buttons are rather stiff to operate. These may not be features that are important to a consumer who is interested in using a laptop for typing business related documents, surfing the Web, and responding to emails. The six-cell battery is average for laptops within this price range.
At a price tag of around $350.00, the HP Compaq Presario CQ60-615DX is one of the mobile Internet laptops available today that has a lot of features. Intel Celeron processor, 2 GB RAM, 250 GB 7200 rpm hard drive, 15.6-inch display, and Wireless-N Wi-Fi are all standard. The lack of Webcam and media card, along with the stiff mouse buttons and single-core processor, are the only drawbacks.
