This auction features an updated Compaq NC6000 with fast 1.7 GHz Pentium M Centrino processor. Powered by an Intel Pentium M Processor, the HP NC6000 delivers the high performance and speed required for a business environment. The HP Compaq notebook features a sleek new industrial design that measures just 1.27-inches. Weighing just about 4.96 lbs, this business notebook is absolutely lightweight and hence is very portable. This HP Nc6000 boasts a large 60 GB user removable hard drive that can store ocean full of your digital data. The HP Compaq notebook design offers up to 5 hours of battery life (battery life not guaranteed for used batteries) that you can enhance by an 8-cell battery, thereby increasing your productivity. Add that extra edge to your professional life with this business notebook today!

The Compaq NC6000 replaced the older Compaq Evo line and sports a faster newer processor, longer life batteries, upgraded graphics card, integrated wireless, and sturdier physical enclosure. You don't have to insert a card in the side of the machine for wireless on this computer - it is built in!!  This unit features a fully functional XGA high resolution monitor which provides nice high quality images. The NC6000 Centrino processor is a newer processor which runs faster and cooler than the Pentium 4 M processor on older computers - like the Compaq Evo N610c. The Compaq Evo NC6000 is much faster than the Compaq Evo N400c, N410c, and N600c models, and generally faster than the Compaq Evo N610c and N620c models as well. A Compaq NC6000 with the same clock speed as its predecessor Evo N610c should be significantly faster due to its newer processor - this 1.7 GHz Pentium M machine compares favorably with Evo N610c units running 2.4 GHz or faster Pentium 4 M processors and Evo N620c units running 1.6 GHz Pentium M processors. In addition, the Compaq NC6000 Pentium M processor runs cooler than its Pentium 4 M cousin and significantly extends battery life. For more information on the Pentium M processor and its comparison to the Pentium 4 please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentium_M.

This unit is physically clean and in good condition. The unit overall looks good, and the LCD works well and looks good.  The latches and hinges are in good working order on this unit too - make sure you buy a unit with good latches so it does not swing open when you don't want it to. Since the unit is used, there are the normal signs of use on the unit; there are a few scratches here and there, but none of these issues impact functionality of the unit at all. The unit has a large 60 GB hard drive installed and fully tested (passed Hitachi Drive Fitness Quick and Advanced Tests); don't get caught short with a smaller or untested hard drive. The unit includes a DVD/CD-RW drive that is fully functional. You can play your favorite DVDs when you travel with this unit!! This is a nice laptop for kids, college students, gamers, mobile professionals, or as a traveler for the family. This is a portable sized (5.5 lbs.) work-horse notebook.  The unit does come with an AC adapter so you can power it up right away. The unit comes with a battery which does hold a charge - but we cannot guarantee battery life. We also installed a new CMOS battery to give you reliable startup performance and a steady date/time; most people who sell this model don't install a new CMOS battery (it is not easy to do) - leaving you with startup problems and requiring you to manually reset the date and time.
