Compaq Evo N1015v           07D4h

  • Mobile AMD Athlon XP processor 1533MHz

  • BIOS Harddrive 2004MB
  • Realtek RTL8139 NIC, Compaq WLAN MultiPort W200 WiFi

Compaq's low-budget Evo N1015v scrapes the bottom in terms of notebook pricing, but it doesn't scrimp on features. For a reasonable $899, the N1015v delivers a roomy-enough 13.3-inch screen and 20GB hard drive. Driven by its 1.2-GHz mobile Athlon XP 1400+ processor, this N1015v turned in a PC WorldBench 4 score of 90--putting it only about 10 percent behind the average 2-GHz Pentium 4-M notebook we've tested. The microphone and headphone ports are on the back, and the lid release could be easier to press. Similar in appearance to its higher-end Evo siblings, the N1015v is a square black notebook with matte-silver accents. The N1015v's main concessions to price are its fixed drives, which are located on opposite sides of the case, and its inclusion of a 16X-24X CD-ROM drive instead of a higher-end DVD-ROM or DVD/CD-RW combination drive. The N1015v does include a TV-out port, and you can add a $99 Multiport 802.11b wireless networking module to its lid. The Evo N1015v, plenty fast and well appointed for mainstream home and office users, merits attention in the sub-$1000 category.
