(September 2007)

The HP Compaq Presario V3000T delivers an impressive blend of style and portability. Like the dv2000 systems, this one has a whole new look, with a shiny, brushed-silver finish on the outside and a sleek, black resin finish inside. You’ll also be quick to notice the sporty grille above the keyboard, which houses the Altec Lansing speakers. Some may prefer the dv2000t because of its built-in webcam, but you won’t find a better budget dual-core notebook than the V3000T.

The V3000T is powered by Intel's 1.6-GHz Core Duo T2050 with 512MB of DDR2 memory. A MobileMark 2005 score of 208 with Wi-Fi enabled is just average for this class of notebook; a bump up to a 2-GHz chip and another 512MB of RAM will provide a significant performance boost but will set you back an additional $200. Also, multimedia enthusiasts will likely find the 60GB hard drive too small for storing lots of digital audio and video files.

Wireless throughput was decent, with the V3000T averaging 12.7 Mbps at a distance of 15 feet from our access point, and 11.7 Mbps at 50 feet. The V3000T offers plenty of connectivity options, including three USB ports, FireWire, VGA, and S-Video outputs, and an Expansion port connector. There's also a 5-in-1 memory card reader.
