Yes. It's HP Compaq Presario C700 Notebook PC. Hope that helps.

Please could you give me the model number of your Compaq, Chris, so that I
can check out all the specs.

Thanks,

Caroline.

Hi Caroline, my Compaq is quite light and small; in fact, it's lighter than my Toshiba laptop I have that's gone in for repair after some spillage. Not
sure about the screen though, could be 15 inches. Hope that helps.

Hello Chris and others,

Thanks for your replies about Advent laptops.  The spec of your Compaq,
Chris, sounds very similar to the Advent. Could you let me know how large
the screen is?  What attracted me to the Advent was its decent spec
combined
with only a 12.1-inch screen, plus it only weighs 1.9 kg.  I am looking
for
a small and light laptop but with a decent specification, so if your
Compaq
is also fairly small and light, it would be worth considering as well.

Jackie, I presume your HP must be quite large if it has a numeric keypad.
That does sound a useful feature, but I think I might be prepared to do
without it if it adds a lot to the overall size.

Caroline.

Hi, don't bother. I've not experienced them myself, but as they're not as
popular as, say, Compaq, I wouldn't trust them. Go for a Compaq one
instead.
I have one, and it runs Vista Home Premium, has a dual core processor, 2
GB
RAM, 160 GB hard drive, thus making it a very snappy laptop. Hope that
helps, happy shopping.

Hello,

I have been looking at the specs of an Advent laptop which seems to meet
all
my requirements - 12.1 inch screen 2 GB of RAM, Intel Core 2 Duo
processor,
decent-sized hard drive.

Has anybody had any experience of Advent laptops, good or bad?  I must
admit
I wouldn't usually think of going to PC World, but this does sound a
reasonable machine for the price.

Thanks,

Caroline.
