HP Compaq F500 Series Review
Source: Notebookreview.com Archive.org version
Let's face it, if you're considering the Compaq F560us, either times are tough or you're cheap. I would place myself into the latter category. In either case you're probably going to have to make some trade-offs. I wanted a notebook with a nice bright glossy screen as a contrast to my darker screened ThinkPad. I don't need a lot of performance. The Sempron fills that role well. I was willing to live with the lesser quality and performance to get the nice screen. For someone who justs needs a box for every day tasks like music or Internet, doesn't need superior quality/service and doesn't have a lot of money to spend, I think the F560 offers good value.

15.40":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.

3.1 kg:

A laptop with this weight is comparatively heavy and less designed for mobility than for use at the desk. Therefore, the devices tend to shine less with battery life than with a large screen and higher performance.
