    My friend is about to buy the Hp ze2260ea (spec is below),
    her main use is only for Office, Internet and some Photoshop and Coreldrow ( no games or p2p maybe some minor video usage if any).
    I have notice the low hdd rpm , low memory, and old platform but she has a nice offer for it which may be the only she can afford.
    will this laptop hold for her needs?



    Thanks,
    blackwolf.

    How much is it? It would fit her needs, yes.

    I'd look into a Compaq V2000Z or HP ZE2000Z - those are newer. Check OfficeDepot - they had the V2000Z a few weeks ago for $499.99 AR.

    I think the ea denotes a european model so they probably won't get it at OfficeDepot. I like the v2000z. It is a good budget notebook.

    Sorry for the bother, but i have just recieved a call and the offer does not stand for her, so the theard can be closed.

    if you were wonderring the offer is for IL models on office depot, the price was divied to 3y w/out taking off the credit.

    many thanks for all of you.
