HP COMPAQ NC4200 Review

HP COMPAQ NC4200Pocket-lint reviews the NC4200 from HP Compaq. It is an affordable lightweight machine with a 12.1 inch display.

HP’s notebooks have had something of a re-birth in recent months. A year ago it seemed the company had lost their way, now with its back to basics approach it seems that it can’t do any wrong.

Take the Compaq nc4200, weighing in at £1000 (inc. VAT) it ticks the “affordable” button before you’ve even checked out what it has to offer. True, it’s billed as a corporate model but as HP sells its wares in places like PC World as well as online at Dabs or Misco, you don’t have to be in business to mean business with this machine.

The machine is solid and well built, if a little understated and weighs in at 1.8kg, and with a battery life in use of over 4 hours, means you can take it on the go with you and not run out of power. The notebook has plenty of protection and the casing is solid and would stand up to the occasional knock.

Incase you are wondering, the NC4200 earned an eight out of ten on their review scale.
